Top Gear tonight - Discovery Channel

Just a reminder.

Here it's on from 5pm to 1am, with one hour that's a new episode.

New listed as "Flying Wig", no other info.

The least you could do is cover the content.

I like the real ones better, but it's still cool watching it on a decent size TV.

My paper listed it as 'Flying Wing', but it really was 'Flying Wig' for the new episode. Jeremy signed off at the end 'Thank you for watching this series', like it was the last show.

Heard the new one will be produced in the US sans Jeremy C and the gang. If so, I'll really miss them.

Maybe the signoff was due to the end of the year. Usually the UK versions end in Dec and then start back up in May.

Tivo recorded 4 episodes for me as I have show in my season pass from last year. Were they all reruns? Guide was showing 2006, but I know that was wrong on at least two of the shows as I had seen them last year.

The big guy said he purchased one of the only 28 Ford GT's going to the UK.

The big guy also called the little guy chimpmunk when they were standing in front of the bright green Charger RT.

The big guy also called the Cayman the Coxster (Coupe + Boxster).

I still enjoy the show, but might enjoy it more if someone took a chip off the big guys shoulder.

The big guy and his method of humor is what makes the show. I wouldn't change a thing about Clarkson.

I enjoy him and the show, I would still like to see him get some of his own medicine - would be funny.

Clarkson already gave the GT back after having numerous problems with the car's immobilizer among other things. Funny read:

great car that was ruined by a useless ape who fitted a crummy aftermarket alarm system..........................One thing: I know I could sell the car privately and make a £50,000 profit. But I have never profited from my position as a motoring journalist. And I never will.
Is the immobilizer really an aftermarket item?

I don't think it's back on... not on this week.
