the fat one sounds like he is a homosexual and stupid, and so do the rest of them.
I'll stick with the British version, why they would allow to do such a disgrace to the original Top Gear is beyond my understanding.

What a load of crap. That bs doesn't deserve the Top Gear label.

I hate it when tv producers are arrogent enough to think that they can just rip off a cult show.

You do realize that Jeremy Clarkson and another Producer of Top Gear own the rights to TG and signed off on this right?? So its not really ripping anything off, be mad at Clarkson if anything.

I want to have a witty defense of Rutledge but alas I dont since I personally hate him since he is from NASCAR world And as I just stated above Clarkson and another who own the rights of Top Gear signed off on this so ask him.

On on board with the "WTF, no Leno?" wagon. I think he was the first choice but something about time-slot scheduling prevented him from appearing. Tragic, considering he's naturally funny and could really get into the gearhead aspect of the cheap cars and the wild races.

Frankly, I'd love to see him in top form ripping on two other presenters.

Leno has already written that he's not interested in doing a US Top Gear because of the way shows are controlled by sponsors here and the show would lose its edge.

The premises for a US show is fine but they definitely need different individuals hosting the show. Tan has no personality the fat one seemed gay and the other guy said almost nothing. Needs work.
