Next episode of the Science of Stupid will critique a cell phone video of Clarkson flipping out over his sandwich and costing him and his friends a lot of money.

I guess Chris can't handle criticism.

The 3rd episode was best so far and showed this show could continue. Chris Harris and Rory did well w/ their segments. They should let Chris Evans go and bring those two to create a trio w/ Matt. Chris Evans isn't improving and doesn't fit anymore. Top Gear still has a potential to do something. I think Chris Harris, Rory, and Matt as main presenters would flow better. Sorry Chris Evans, I tried but you keep dragging the whole thing down.

Extra Gear is better than Top Gear in my opinion

The other segments were good butstill had issues. For example: why put a FWD hatch in with the 2 AWD hatches when there's other options like the Golf R or the RS3 and why not put Stig in them and compare lap times? I must say though, I have no clue who this Rory bloke is but he definitely deserves his spot in the show. And what is the obsession with fake puking? |

They should hire me. I'll make them puke for real! All the confidence of the Stig with the skills of James May

I came in wanting to like it. Barely made it through the first installment. Chris Evans would fit right in on American TopGear...jeeeez that guy is annoying...

I'm just gonna wait for "The Grand Tour" to air. I watched Top Gear partly for the cars but mainly for Jezza, Slow, and Hamster. The trio is what made the show.

Finally got around to watching the 3rd episode. As I was writing my impressions, I came across Brandon Turkus' write-up which pretty much sums it all up for me so I'm posting the whole thing here...

The viewer numbers explain all for this season so far.
Episode 1 ~ 6.42 Million UK Viewers Episode 2 ~ 4.06 Million UK Viewers Episode 3 ~ 3.44 Million UK Viewers Episode 4 ~ 2.34 Million UK Viewers Episode 5 comes out today..will be interesting if numbers fall again. I personally haven't watched any episodes of the new season because to me, Top Gear ended at Season 22, and season 23 will be the new show on amazon with the trio! Also, some interesting news I found today, Matt LeBlanc is allegedly planning to quit Top Gear if his co-host Chris Evans is not removed from the team first, sources have claimed.

Just can Chris Evans and keep the rest of the hosts. It's nothing but a gong show behind the scenes if all the allegations are true. There's always something new every week...

We should start a petition to replace him with T-Coat. He's funny as hell in written form; let's get him mic ed up and in a Pagani.

The Grand Tour coming out after Top Gear will be like when Need For Speed 1 came out after Test Drive III.
