Hamster pimps his new ride...

Back in the UK, the popular presenter unveiled his new set of electric wheels – but they’re not quite what you’d expect.

I always got the impression that those were more of a 'Middle Finger' to Top Gear and the BBC than anything.

Its funny, I occasionally re-watch old Top Gear episodes but I consistently fast-forward the 'Star in a Reasonable priced car' segment.

Bleh - looks like more of the same 'trip' based stuff. Just tell me about cars dammit. Expectations are low.

The latest Season of TG with Harris, Reid, and Leblanc was far better as a car enthusiast. Car dudes talking about cars, with a sprinkling of them doing stupid stuff in an 80/20 ratio. GT does it in reverse. Seriously folks, give the new TG a shot. Having a hot shoe in Harris really takes this to another level, beyond GT.

re: SIARPC - I actually don't mind it as it 'breaks up' the action, especially if the guest is good and recognizable. It not being on the DVD specials was a big reason why they are so... boring. Conversely GT tries to do that but Brain Crash and Conversation street are terrible at best (and I do fast forward them).

This guy on Reddit posted about Clarkson being on his flight from Calgary to Kelowna. It'll be cool if Canada is featured this season.

It's strange that he's coming from Kelowna. I wonder if he was just visiting there or if that has something to do with The Grand Tour as well.

The last time they travelled to Calgary, Clarkson and May came on the same flight as they were renting the truck to drive up to the mountains to rescue Hammond on Top Gear.

There seemed to be indication he was visiting the Area 27 Track? That's just south of Kelowna. http://www.area27.ca/

Thank the jebus, easily the worst part of the first season. Don't understand the decision to have someone who constantly ####s on cars on a show that loves cars.

More good news, celebrity brain crash is gone. Jeremy has created a new challenge for them though.

Do you want to watch May and Hammond race each other to assemble LEGO cars while being asked car Trivia and getting drunk? Of course you do.

The American was profoundly unfunny. But Celebrity brain crash did make me chuckle a few times.

I’m quite excited for Season 2 even though deep down i know Jeremy Clarkson is most likely a total ass and i shouldn’t enjoy his show as much as I do. But i just can’t resist!!

He may be an ass but at least none of them have been accused of molesting women. So they've got that going for them.

Sounds like they know what wasn't working. I hope it becomes a bit less scripted as well.
