Top Gear

Just when you think they're not relevant....

Please watch tonight's show. The last 10 minutes show why it's the best show on TV.

I take it you mean UK Top Gear? I will have to wait until it comes out on US television.

+100

But I stopped watching after 5 minutes. It sucked more than season 1, amazingly.

I know about finalgear but I don't feel like spending the time to download a torrent from all those other users and have to join the club, etc. Don't they take longer to download as people come and go from the site?

No I'm not. DL'd it awhile ago. It's not dark enough to watch yet. I like to savor it.

For those who don't want to wait until the US release of this season, or who don't want a torrent download, here is a Top Gear segment to watch that leaves me stunned every time I see it. The limey's answer to the space shuttle:
‪Top Gear - Reliant Robin space shuttle - Richard Hammond and James May - BBC‬‏ - YouTube

Yeah, that was a good one. As was the Mini ski-jump.
