Jeremy Clarkson suspended by BBC

[Devious_Snake]

Just another classic case of over sensitive twat waffles ruining good stuff...Clarkson is very outspoken and opinionated while also being intelligent. Its the type of shit we need more of in society, not this continued pussification of it. Without him, that show is nothing.

 

[Woody6799]

The last person Clarkson threw a swing at was Morgan Piers.

That tells me that whoever this producer is A) pissed off Clarkson royally, and B) deserved to be punched.

lol agreed

 

[HEMI LOL]

very sad to hear. love UKTG, I've watched about 15min of one of the USTG and that was enough to never watch it again.

don't be stupid BBC. seriously.

 

[Lambeau]

I love Jeremy Clarkson and Top Gear USA sucks!

^ +1

Top Gear with Clarkson, Captain Slow, and Hamster is the greatest. I've always loved British humor….

(I am SOOOOOOO sick of Queen Foust)

 

[Zemedici]

Am I the only one who doesn't watch TG? :shrug:

 

[Blown 89]

Not a fan of the weekly challenges the BBC has been doing. I hate to say it but TG USA does that better. This season has been a snooze fest but I was looking forward to the P1, LF, and 918 battle.

 

[Black02GT]

Haven't watch this season cause they took down Final Gear. The season before this was tired and started to seem cookie cutter. Sucks though Clarkson was funny was a fan for many many years.

Biggest load of shit.... In The World

 

[GRUSE]

The BBC ****ed up royal.TG is the best motoring show ever produced.Honest reviews if a car sucks they say it sucks.
Clarkson,Hammond,May and the Stig rule,American TG is lame.

The Stig
Some say that his genitals are on up side down and that he could solve the Da Vinci code in 43 seconds. All we know is, he's called The Stig.

am i the only one who doesn't watch tg? :shrug:

yes!

Pretty bad it took this thread for me to realize TP USA was still on. I could only stomach a few episodes and assumed it was cancelled since I don't ever see commercials for it. Worst set of host ever, talk about 3 choices that don't mesh well at all. Add to that the two funny guys are far from funny.

Clarkson makes that show, so getting rid of him is certain death. Agree with the guy here that said the producer must have deserved the hit, since the last guy to get it was Piers. So I am okay with him deciding who to hit,lol.

Adam and Tanner are horrible but Rutledge Wood is a true car enthusiast and an honest reviewer. Yes, he is a total pussy when it comes to the challenges but during his car reviews i feel he is more honest and has a better explanation of each car than the other two. TGUS would be pretty good if he had two better co hosts.

I hated Rutledge the most...Adam a close second. I can't recall any reviews, but everything he did I found extremely annoying. Tanner annoyed me with his constant burnouts before doing anything. Especially when doing any kind of racing, seeing as it's counter productive.

I would like to beat those two with a torque wrench, especially Adam.....

Rutledge Wood is the man. The guy is a true enthusiast and IMO is a great journalist because of it. Tanner gets on my nerves sometimes but the dude can wheel which is nice to see on a car show. Adam has no place being on that show IMO.

I want Rutledge's step van as a kart hauler:

I say we boycott everything British until they return us our TopGear and Jeremy Clarkson. I am willing to fight another revolution.

LOL yes, this.

Tanner is a drifter, nothing more. I saw him run a car at Tx Mile years ago, my mom could outdrive him in a straight line. He took more time than an English Tea between shifts.

Yeah, the notion that he can't race is absurd.

 

[Devious_Snake]

LOL @ Tanner not being a good driver. Ford has used him many times to lap cars during testing.
