Matt LeBlanc?? What happened to Chris Evan?? I thought I read about some incident that happened while filming............

Matt LeBlanc?? MUCH better, but no dice. At least not for me.

Clarkson/May/Hammond. Enough said.

EDIT: nevermind, just read the article. Both are on. Still doesn't change my mind.

I guess Matt LeBlanc has done stuff after Friends. He even won an award for some of it, supposedly.. I haven't seen any of it. I can understand the business reasoning behind the decision.

Glad to see some confirmation of Chris Harris being on the show. He's a properly talented journalist. That's what Clarkson, Hammond and May were before anything else. If you've ever read any of their written pieces you'd get it right away.

Ill watch the new stuff, but I watch TG USA too.. so my taste isn't that great.


I would prefer if Sabine Shmitz jumps on board too

I'll give it a shot. People seem to forget that the last few seasons of Top Gear with the original trio became stale and redundant. The prime of that show was somewhere around 2005-2010. The India special was a nail in the coffin for me.

Hopefully their Amazon show is something new. Otherwise, I find the articles that those three write to be most entertaining than their latest shows.

The US Top Gear needs to ditch Adam. He isn't funny at all.
