hamster Posted 21 December, 2010 Share Posted 21 December, 2010 Although I have never watched it religiously I think it looking a wee bit tired now. It needs at least one new face imo and they should also cut back on the sizeist jabs at that little dwarfish fellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jawillwill Posted 21 December, 2010 Share Posted 21 December, 2010 I've just complained to the BBC about the 3 of them suggesting they will kill Ben Collins and actively promoting drive-by shootings. Absolute disgrace. Not what I pay my license fee for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute disgrace. Not what I pay my license fee for! They will kill the Stig character by drive by. Ben Collins remains live and well. I want to see emergency Stig though. He deserved screen time.

swannymere Posted 22 December, 2010 Share Posted 22 December, 2010 Top Gear stopped being good about 3/4 series ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerx16 Posted 22 December, 2010 Share Posted 22 December, 2010 Top Gear stopped being good about 3/4 series ago. Agree - it's a contrived mechanism for 3 middle-aged men to show how puerile they can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrZuess1979 the 2nd Posted 22 December, 2010 Share Posted 22 December, 2010 I liked the ref to Jpt and the Prem. Nothing wrong with a bit of motoring humor. What other programs are out there? 5th gear yawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Alert Posted 24 December, 2010 Share Posted 24 December, 2010 It does look tired, and the series have been getting worse for 1/2 years. However the one off shows are brilliant. Loved the Vietnam one, and I am sure the boxing day special this year will be just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedelldays Posted 24 December, 2010 Author Share Posted 24 December, 2010 how is it tired...? what is tired about it...some of the stuff they come up with to do is pretty good IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Alert Posted 25 December, 2010 Share Posted 25 December, 2010 TDD - I find that they seem to be running low on things to do, you can tell this by the far longer chats they have in the studio about things. Many of which are funny, but a lot are just the same jokes about James being gay, Richards height or teeth and Jeremy wanting to be ruler of the world. Lots of the humour has gone from being subtle jokes to being slapstick - drop a piano on a morris, destroy a caravan, set things on fire - which i personally see as them having run out of new interesting things to do. Don't get me wrong I do still watch most episodes, but I still feel it is going down hill. I will be in front of the tv watching the middle east special on boxing day though, hoping for another brilliant special. In fact I wouldn't mind if they did away with the series all together and did 4-5 epic specials a year. They are always very entertaining. IMO of course.

Nexstar Posted 25 December, 2010 Share Posted 25 December, 2010 Really like top gear but the way they act everything is starting to grate on me. May and Clarkson manage to pull it off but Hammond has to make things very obviously fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painswick Saint Posted 31 December, 2010 Share Posted 31 December, 2010 Enjoyable, but seems a bit contrived recently. Will be interesting to see if they follow up on the birth of 'baby Stig' ,though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 31 December, 2010 Share Posted 31 December, 2010 I thought the two Christmas episodes were pretty good overall. A bit of the stupid 'fake accidents' stuff and some bad acting from Hammond, but overall pretty entertaining. Have to say I saw the Stig/Jesus thing coming on the second episode. Will be interesting to see how that develops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
