I know it's their first show, but absolutely no chemistry between the three. I'll watch Top Gear (UK) repeats over and over before i watch these clowns again.

Cobra vs. Cobra = boring
Buzz Aldrin= waste of "his" time
Lambos= only thing that made it worth watching, and that wasn't even that great.

Thanks goodness Sunday Night Football was still on at this time, regardless of who is playing.

Agreed. The cars and cinematography were all good but the hosts lack character, personality, and chemistry. It was painful to watch and hear them talk. Hard to admit, but I would rather watch Ryan seacrest than these clowns.

they better get an image stabilizer on the in-car camera, or move to a smoother track. Watching Tanner in the Viper--and all that shaking around --i was ready to change the channel only 5 minutes into the show...but i stomached it...

I am going to send in some paperwork and ask for a job on that show. I would just clown all three of those guys. IMO being the stig is the best job. No dealing with the cornballs on camera. The shaking in the Balboni Lambo was the worst

It was one of the most gadawful premier of a show I've seen in a long time. Faust should stick to driving not talking. He is funnier on the Battle of the Supercars. I ended up watching the Walking Dead.

I'm hoping they break in and get more comfortable on camera as the season progresses. I don't think you can cast and predict chemistry and these guys have no entertainment experience. Why do you think it's on the History channel.

it's on the History channel, and

a) I don't get the History channel
b) it's not on History channel Canada anyway

So good news all around. I won't even bump into it by accident.

Tanner Foust is the most interesting, most colourful one on there...and he's a righteous stiff.

Originally NBC was going to produce this and wanted Seinfeld and Leno. They passed of course

Then it turned into Adam Corolla, Tanner and some guy from a home reno show.

How it devolved into these three is beyond me. The trick with the british show isn't 'the chemistry'...it's because the three guys are all seasoned, funny television presentors. They all have like 5 other shows they work on. The three on the US topgear are nobodys.

Tanner Foust should be the stig...not the frigging host.

IAS5

he would drift too much...

I Tivoed it. Should I bother watching? Does the British version(which we all love) still exist?

Yeah it does. I think they are just about to start airing a new season. At least I think I recall seeing an advertisement for it on BBC America . . .
