If you’re not, and you probably are not, then you’re missing out on good motoring programming.
Also, this shot.
They look like two secret agents out on a mission to stop a megalomaniacal entertainment mogul from ruining motorsport.

Agreed. I love the new new top gear.

Good car show. A minimum amount of nonsense while keeping an almost childish enthusiasm about cars and other motorized machines.

Agreed. Though I’ve been waiting for the BBC America version on Sunday nights to get the full quality and EG.

I’m with you. New new new Top Gear has nailed it. They kept enough of the old elements that worked, but ditched the stuff from last season that didn’t, and tweaked the formula in a way that works. OK, Matt LeBlanc’s misuse of farm equipment segments are a bit silly and over the top, but I like them. The three hosts are building some good chemistry, too, and you can’t put a price on that.

I need to watch it, but I am lazy to find a place to stream it cause I am young and don’t have cable.
Damn that is a great picture of them.

I personally like the new Top Gear better than the Grand Tour.

I can’t hate on the farm equipment/heavy machinery segments. The old trio had their own oddball, off-topicish filler stuff they liked to do, this isn’t any different in my eyes. And the Volvo in the Bunning Lowlander was pretty insane (moreso when you find out the shred was legit. The only modifications done to the car was removing the engine, and the only damage done to the Bunning was a bit of paint work). What I really like is when they Easter Egg the “Matt <3 heavy machinery” gag into one of the other segments to see who’s paying attention.

Grand Tour is spending too much effort ragging on Top Gear.

Oh, I’m totally with you. There’s the pic you shared. There’s casually mentioning “Hey, there’s a [obscure piece of farming equipment]” as they drive past it. I like that. And the random destruction part is exactly the sort of thing TG is known for.
