Just started watching it and I have come to the conclusion that the hosts of this show officially have THE best jobs ever.

Is anyone into this show? Have any favorite episodes? Discuss.

no no no. the best one is where they make their own caravan (I think) and one of them burns down, which makes the other burn down. and one falls off a cliff. I can't even remember it. But it was funny.

that episode is awesome

also the one where they shoot caravans (british term for little camping trailers i guess) off a huge air cannon and onto a target

and the reliant robin one is always funny

Agree. Wish the set ups were less obvious, but still glued to it.

P.S new series is airing here at the moment

Just want to say that I'm pretty sure Top Gear is my favorite show on TV right now. (Obviously the BBC version).

The vietnam special and the south america special were excellent. The idea of driving a car at an altitude where there isnt enough oxygen is mindblowing. Though I really haven't seen an episode I didn't enjoy

LOVE British top gear, I don't care for the American version, they are not as funny, make stupid jokes, all of them suck at driving but the guy who is like a pro driver. They don't do so much funny stuff that the british did, such as the video of the three wheel car and him flipping it like every 2 minutes. HILARIOUS!!

BBC wont be making any new episodes in 2012. Clarkson said it´s due to "fat women singing", but i believe it´s because of the olympics. They´ll be back next year though!
