Look, I get it! Some of us (me included) really like him, TG the way we knew it for over a decade is now dead. Shocking! BUT! It just gets tiresome to scroll through this sea of "opinions" (opinions are like a-holes, everybody has one) and "I know who should replace him/know how to fix TG" posts to sift out the REAL content that people were putting out today.

Let's face the facts:

- We all know shit. Fake twatr accounts only bring false leads.

- We can't do shit about it. The bring back Clarkson campaign didn't work, and whoever wants to boycott the BBC has no idea as to how they are funded.

- We will probably have TWO NEW CAR RELATED TV SHOWS sooner or later. Clarkson won't stop. May won't stop. Hammond won't stop. TG was there before them and will be after them. In the end, something good might come out of this. A lot of people were complaining that TG had become a little stale lately.

So can we just move with our lives and act like reasonable people? A plane has crashed, there's a war at the EU's doorstep, Boko Haram and IS are stil out there, poverty and malnourishment are still the biggest killers of mankind, and we have to go apeshit over a rich guy probaly getting even richer with his next gig?

I agree 100%. Jezza is a hothead. We've known that for a long time. But he's funny. And the public likes him despite his assholishness (new word I made up). So, we'll see him again in one form or another. The BBC knows what they're doing. And if they don't, well, too bad for them.

They still make one of my favorite shows ever (Orphan Black), so I'm not totally against the network myself.

I agree on TG getting stale. We are talking about one of the greatest non-technical "car" shows to date though.

Paul Walker got close to a month of Oppo. Expect, at least, another two weeks of TG and "Save Ferris" posts.

Nothing to hate the Beeeb for. They are a large, publicly funded organization, they had to do what they did. And who knows? Maybe stirring it up a bit will be good in the long run.

And a lot of the shows they produce are top notch! I've heard of Orphan Black, maybe I'll take a look into that.

Not looking forward to a full month, but you "May" be right. (See what I did there? I'll see myself out.) <- And more of that.

How did you find me this fast? What if I were to quit to the show and become a judge on some talent show, would people miss me? Would there be the same media outrage? And why didn't my avatar deflect people?

It takes a lot of work to ignore Francine. Don't even get me started on Steve and the Hippy..

America needs a good dose of Country music to set things right. And not that crummy Taylor Swift "Country"... I'm talking Conway Twitty Country.
