    All Adam Corolla knows how to do is give stupid puns and bad advice to all the people calling in with their sex problems. (if you ever listened to love line. i stopped because it was just too darn stupid.)

    I like british humor. They should get john clease to host. that'd be the best.

    Top Gear will blow oats

    The US version will blow oats. I wrote and article in my blog a couple of weeks ago about this. Top Gear will blow oats.
    I don't think Adam Carolla or however you spell his name is very funny. The British humor is what make Top Gear funny.

    Personality will make or break this show. The hosts have big shoes to fill, but the network also needs to realize they shouldn't get in the way. Either of them can let this be a great show or doom it from the start. Either way, the beginning should be interesting to see.

    They review serious cars but in funny, over the top ways. And crack jokes about a car's faults and find humorous ways to talk about a car's strong points.
    It is popular because it is lighthearted AND accurate on the news and specs on the cars they are reviewing.

    Like Hammond once said:"it's my job to be a walking car encyclopedia"

    my secret female body was kinda interesting.

    Anyway reading all the interviews so far I do have hope for the show. Now someone just needs to interview this Eric Strommer dude and see what he has to say.

    its gonna be a disaster of a show. bottom line. the worst thing for america to do is have to live up to a BBC show. we will fail miserably due to american tv's serious lack of creativity.

    adam corrola is far from funny, more annoying than anything.

    tanner foust is a great driver, seems to bne a pretty stand up guy, but has nothing in common with any of his soon-to-be co-hosts or anyone from BBC's Top Gear.

    i know nothing about the other host.

    this is gonna be embarrassing.

    I highly doubt NBC would let them do a full on negative review of a bad car, probably at most "Oh we think this car is not the greatest." Jeremy usually takes his negative reviews to an extreme, even blowing them up, which generally makes it more appealing to everyone.

    The casting for this is somewhat weird. Top Gear UK is able to grab attention from even people who are not into cars simply because of the personalities of their three hosts, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. Adam Carolla is funny, but I don't think his humor is enough to capture the audience that isn't into cars at all. I rather see Tanner as the American Stig, seen him on Supercars Exposed and that was very dry. And Eric Stromer, a carpenter, are you serious? These three hosts have big shoes to fill.

    Top Gear is all about personality sells the show, if this one lacks it, then it will probably be as bad as Car and Driver TV, and we know how biased that magazine is. Hopefully sponsors wont run the show.

    I'll watch the pilot, hopefully it's not as bad as it looks.

    Jeremy Clarkson, executive producer and host of the UK “Top Gear” said: “This is fantastic news - but how on earth you lot are going to do it on the wrong side of the road I’ve no idea.”
