Clarkson destroys my faith in humanity, Hammond makes we want to kill short people ( which is a big deal as i am myself vertically challenged ) and May...he's alright actually, his hairs a bit gay though.

lol i have the opposite view to u i guess! i think clarkson and hammond make the show what it is, i like clarksons sarcasm and just that they both take the piss out of may, either way i think its very funny!

did you see it when they was gettin chased by rednecks for writing gay stuff on there cars?

I don't mind the presenters and watch the show all the ime, but in the last few years the humour is becoming very scripted and force fed. May's scene with the volcano had me thinkin they just had nothing better to do while at the same time hope for a 10 ton, red hot piece of volcano to land on him. I'd have liked to watch The Stig's full lap instead of their world cup joke too. Plus Clarkson would've been much funnier without a crash helmet and 4 point harness in the Reliant. Not great for the season starter, hopefully it get's better. Roll on November!!. 8)

The show lost me about two years ago, probably after they killed the toyota. Absolutly brilliant.

I share the opinion of some others on here that top gear lost me around 3 years ago. I always still see it though because my housemates at uni love it.

For me Top Gear lost its charm, when it became more staged with stupidity. It lost its context and what it was about for me top gear has become slapstick.

James May is still superb
Clarkson is wtachable and opinionated, rather than the dull manufactured TV presenters you normally get.
Hammond i just can not stand, i think that is more due to Total Wipeout than top gear.
