Top Gear Australia

Post by Rambo »

Last night me and couple friends went to the filming for this at Bankstown airport. , so boring clapping 90% of the time..., the show is better every season but the bar is set to high from the UK, you will never guess the new guest host for this season... KENNY, the toilet guy.... on topgear he is funny with his pub humor but still..
TOP GEAR AUSTRALIA season 3 .massive FAIL
Looks the goods, just isnt.

Sorry, but I do hope it dies.
I F'ing hate copies.

If they wanted to do something, it should have been something completely different and with a different name

Master Chef/ Master Rig, holds nothing to the UK equivalent.

plus another massive long list that AUS keeps claiming off the poms.

Would rather watch UK TV or BBC any day.

Just watched my first ever top gear aus episode.. well 10mins of it.. got bored, so I'm going to bed..

Absolutely horrible. In comparison, the REAL Top Gear is so bloody good my gf and I can watch hours on end of it, and shes getting the DVDs for Chrissy (and she doesn't even like cars..)

I heard an interview with clarkson over the UK one they said everyone there is just really good at their job.

They understand what they're doin you can even hear them bossing the hosts around a bit on some episodes for effect because its effecting their creeeaativity. Where as the copies well they're trying to copy it or copy the superficial parts of the job then say theyve got it...

So hard watching a lap in the aussie reasonably priced car i still have no idea what the actual course looks like...
