     My family's favorite TV show is Top Gear. So, tonight the TV guide shows 
it 

on the History Channel instead of the usual BBCA. So we turn it on and it has 
an 

American driving an Aston and none of the usual guys (Jeremy, Richard and 

James). My kids booed it down after about 5 minutes. Watching the show was like 

an alternate universe. What was this other Top Gear? It sucked.



 

It's like when they move "Who's Line is it Anyway" to Hollywood and replaced 
Clive Anderson with Drew Cary.  I have nothing against Drew Cary but he's no 
Clive Anderson.

I saw last week's episode and it has the same irreverent attitude but without 
Jeremy Clark it just isn't the same.

I guess not everybody appreciates an English accent the way we do.
