Top Gear - Season 18

[Gryffes]

New season started up again tonight, the boys driving supercars across Italy, and will.i.iam was the guest.


It was a pretty good episode also.

[Ashmada]

I'd pick the Aventador, out of the 3. Damn, that thing look good.
They took the Murcielago and did achieved the impossible: make it prettier.

But Jeremy missed a major opportunity to make willdotidotamdot eat his own testicules on camera.
Srsly, worst guest EVAR.

[Tajin]

Fuck yeah thanks for the heads-up

I agree, he was definitely the worst guest ever...very dull.
And I loved Jeremy's question later on in the show...

Spoiler: show

Is your car orange and does it shoot blue stuff out?

I agree, there's just something about that car that makes it stand out (color aside). I really like the futuristic aeronautical look and feel. Also LoL at Stig's Chinese and Italian counterparts. Beautiful country with beautiful cars = Great episode.

BG Counterpart Represent!

Tracking down the episode right now. I had the unfortunate disaster of my family visiting when it was airing.

[Cantih]

Good episode, and YES to both of the season previews.

[Zetanio]

will.i.am is a fucking loser. Nice gloves and glasses. Aside from him the episode is awesome.

[Gryffes]

The first 15 mins or so is about Nascar :D
Matt le blanc is the guest zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I wouldn't call him a loser, he did it win it big time and he knows about them fashion thingies. A blight upon the human race, yes. A loser, not really, no.


But anyway, Jeremy raises a good point: Hammond really is american. Explains all the yeehaw-ing!

[Tajin]

Holy shit China

Yeah when I saw earlier this week that Matt le Blanc was the guest star I was like wtf.
Even more WTF was when...

Spoiler: show

He posted the fastest track time in the reasonably priced car

But he really wasn't that bad of a guest since he actually does know about cars and is an actual car enthusiast.

[Ishido]

Anyone have a working direct download link they would be willing to share with me via PM? I would be quite grateful. (episode 2)

[Cantih]

The first 15 mins or so is about Nascar :D

I felt bad when Hammond got "who the fuck is this guy" applause.
But a 4 star general that only a wonk or military personnel would know? "woooooooooooooooo"

Holy shit China

Their not-so-tame racing driver.

[Zetanio]

Second episode was pretty awesome.

I still don't like Nascar.

[Gryffes]

Decent ep, Ryan Reynolds was a bit boring, but the rest was all good.

[Cantih]

What exactly is with all the non-british guests this season?

[Gryffes]

No clue, one of the things I like/liked about guests is that they were NOT there just to promote their latest film/allbum/book, but because they had usually met jeremy/richard/james and been invited on and it's turned into super generic show your film clip drive the car and fuck off.

[Ashmada]

Great ep, this one, but the cars... all seem flawed beyond saving. The FF losing 4WD in 5th gear, the Fisker being way too expensive, the Bentley being a Bentley.

Boring guest, but oh well. Tbh, guests this season seem to be completely aimed at attracting a female/Kuya audience. Next one will be the newest Dr. Who.
It's fine, though. We had our Cameron Diaz, Pippa 23 from Essex, Fiona Bruce and Amber Heard, only fair they invite some fashion-conscious guys now.

Still, hoping for a comedian guest in the last ep, preferably Rhod Gilbert or Shappi Khorsandi.

[Gryffes]

Tonights ep was the best so far but it's been a weakish season overall.
