Angry Top Gear Anoraks.
zilspeed - 30/1/11 at 07:49 PM

A direct quote from the Top Gear web site relaitng to this weeks programme.

"I reckon even the angriest Top Gear anorak will find plenty of entertainment in this feature."

I like that.

Even the angriest top gear anorak.

Surely a sidewipe at all the motoring forums where people line up to dissaprove of some aspect of top gear on a weekly basis..

P.S. Anyone who answers this posting with any form of "yebbut, what I think they should start doing / stop doing, whatever" is automatically self selected themselves as an angry top gear anorak

Your choice

People like to moan.
And the ones that moan most about it.... keep watching.
If I don't like a program I don't watch it. Hence why I am posting this while Dancing on Ice is on TV

Anyone can be offended at anything... Here's a bit from another article I was reading here:

quote:
"It's a shame, really. I have so many books to go through just stacked up in my study - waiting to be read."

"Why haven't you been reading?"

"Well, my portable DVD player has been a Godsend on the bus. Now I watch the old Star Trek episodes and whatever I can rent at Blockbuster."

"Yeah, but what if you wanted to watch porn on it?"

"I don't know. I'm sure I'd get a lot of weird looks on the bus. It's also not something you can just fast forward through as it looks even weirder when things go flopping around like that at high speed."

"That reminds me of a buddy of mine. He got caught watching porn in his minivan* in a parking lot when a mother and a child were passing by and they reported him to the cops."

"There's an argument for tinted windows."

"Well, that's not as bad as another guy I know. Check this out! I was cruising the web at www.sexoffender.com, just to see how many we have in Jersey City..."

"How many?"

"Believe it or not, not as many as you'd think. Maybe 15 or 20. So just for sh*ts and giggles, I decided to check out my home state of Florida and there were pages and pages of offenders."

"I'm not surprised. I'm sure if you checked out the rural areas of New Jersey, you'd find a whole bunch as well.**"

"Yeah, so, I'm checking out my county in Florida and not only do I find pages and pages of offenders, I know the guy at the top of the list. So, one of the last times I went down to visit my parents, I asked one of my friends about this guy. He said, 'You are not going to believe this sh*t! He's driving along, minding his own business, when he has to take a leak. So he pulls his car over to the side of the road and start pissing away. While he's taking a leak, another car passes by with a kid in the car. The kid sees his willy and the guy gets arrested as a sex offender.'"

"I'm hoping he fought it."

"It doesn't matter. Once you get on that list, you're screwed! I mean no one will hire you. No matter where you go you'll be tracked. Hell! If it were me, I'd go for the 'life of crime'. But I'm not sure how'd I'd make a living."


Like I say if you want to be offended you'll find something...

i seem to remember (Bill Bailley??) on I think QI ? "That could it be Jeremy Clarkson's penis looks exactly like a miniature Jeremy Clarkson ?".


I confess I'm a QI anorak !

to sum up top gear these days is to say it now appeals to my fiancée more than me...

The reason most folk moan about TG is because it used to be so very good.

All this mock self-deprecating poo is a bit of a cop-out IMHO!

Still... the 2 episodes so far this season have been better than the last two seasons put together, so fingers crossed!


Ninehigh - 3/2/11 at 10:11 PM

I agree has been better, even if it is still scripted there's been more thought put into it

Top Gear is great. I dont know how spin works but this type of thing sure gets the show advertised. Sounds like good marketing to me. In one show they probs have better ratings in UK, Mexico and Australia - awesome
