Television Top Gear

It's just not the same without those 3. Which we all knew anyway. Top Gear was shit before them, and it's shit now they've gone.
 
New Fake Top Gear was dreadful, Evans was just trying to be Clarkson and got knows what Le Blanc was trying to be he was bland and boring, the films were rubbish , they even went to Top Gear and managed to make it boring, was far from impressed.
 
LeBlanc is fine, the rest isn't. Don't like Evans, and I don't like having two guests on the interview segment (when they have nothing to do with each other). The new rally part to the lap is fine though.
 
As it went on I was warming to Leblanc he's not as boring as I thought. I can watch his individual segments. Once he's grown into the role more he will be fine

it's when that other arsewipe gets involved it goes downhill and he drags Leblanc with him.

I'll give it another go Next week but that's the decider for me
 
tbf Evans was just being himself, but it all felt like it was trying too hard though. Matt Le Blanc is just a disaster, he is a known petrol head so has genuine interest, but a far better actor than presenter.
 
'Never before on Top Gear has so much effort produced so little movement'

Stick that quote from Evans on the tapes, lock them up in a room and never air it again.
 
Le Blanc came across ok. Poor first episode. Then again first couple of years with the original 3 was pretty poor. Don't think they have the time to get to grips with it though with Grand Tour on the horizon
 
LeBlanc was good, Evans needs to tone it down. Gotta give them a few episodes to find the right balance but not exactly a promising start.
 
Evans working very hard to make it seem all very exciting

Maybe the chemistry with him and LeBlanc will come later but it was very forced and dull
 
If MLB played up his celebrity status a lot more he would improve 100%. A sort of cocky, absent minded star who name drops and is distracted during tasks by fans etc.

Haven't even seen it and that thread title has already got me :lol:

Think I heard Brad Pitt was supposed to be the guest but pulled out so they got those 2 in on short notice. Pitt probably saw some of the show and thought feck this.
 
For a first episode I thought it was okay, it just needed Evans to not try so hard and get rid of the Audience vote thing. Hopefully they realise this and at least have a platform to build on! It should improve over the course of the series.

Bloody hell, is that supposed to be praise? He's not much good at the latter.
 
Evans is so monotone. I cant understand what hes saying. How is this possible for a radio presenter?

Evans is awful.

Le Blanc is okay but the problem so far is there is no chemistry between the presenters, everything feels so forced - especially when they try and interact with the audience.
 
And people said last few seasons were terrible.
