Thrilling!
First ep was utterly worthless in my opinion. The second was as good as the first was bad, I loved every segment. The Alfa 4C is beautiful, I want one (and lusting unhealthily over the quad bike Spoiler: /jet ski too).
Top Gear has become stale imo. They need to take a couple of years break. Hammond does my tits in more and more with each passing series.
I liked the first episode fine right until the final segment of the show. 2nd episode was definitely an improvement. I'm very encouraged by what Andy says there is to come, seems like they're really trying to outdo themselves against the Olympics.

This should be interesting.
Did you catch "Disappointed" on episode 3. I wasn't paying attention while the family was watching but my ears caught that. You need to skip to about the 2 min mark.
The first half of the Burma special is very good. Whether or not it's as good as the 1st Africa special or Vietnam remains to be seen, but Clarkson was very bold in his statements on Twitter of how he feels about the special as a whole, especially the 2nd half.
From Jeremy's Facebook
There has been a lot of stuff in the newspapers recently about the future of Top Gear. Some seem to think there isn’t one. But I can assure you, there is. There are also those who think I won't be part of it. Well, sorry, but I am.
Unless I am eaten by a pack of wild dogs before the next series starts early next year.
Jeremy Clarkson can be an insensitive asshole sometimes nearly 700 argentinians lost their lives but this is such bullshit from the Argentinian media, their economy is truly fucked, they divert attention to the falklands whenever they hit a crisis. Their leader the woman whose had all the hideous botox has a serious personality disorder. They are British property, the war was real tragic but they cant seem to accept that simple fact. 98 percent of the falkland islands want to remain part of Britain too. they think they have found immense amounts of oil there now too..... they are never going to go to war with us again it would destroy them the way things are there.
They owe the US loads of money too the US bailed them out ..they refuse to pay back....shitty government there.
"Me, I'm Not" was featured in last nights episode, the first part of the Patagonia special.
The Patagonia special had it's moments, but it really didn't feel as exciting as even the more recent trips to Africa and Burma.
I wish TG just consisted of Clarkson and May, I find Hammond massively irritating.
I won't even be that heartbroken once they officially end the show (which I'm betting will happen once their current 3-year contract is up). James May has done some excellent stuff on his own lately, especially his latest Toy Stories.
Damn, after many years of 6-7 episodes per season we would've got more and then this happens. I really hope they can resolve their differences and air the three remaining episodes.
I don't even watch the show but I think this suspension of the programme is ridiculous - the BBC are crazy as Top Gear is the top earning programme and goes worldwide - what fools. Complete overreaction. So its OK for Alan Davies to bite a tramps ear and that doesn't affect QI production, but they do this to Top Gear? Complete hypocrisy
