Sounds like a spoilt child getting away with it because he simply can.
I would post the gif of him posted on reddit today where he picks his ear and makes a face like he's on day 1 of sex education in primary school. But I'm sure many have just had their dinner (or tea).

How does the NSX's drive by wire braking system work in the event of a failure of some sort?

I'm guessing this sexual harrassment case has more substance then they thought. Someone like CE doesn't just quit willy nilly
Take Chris Harris on the roadtrips tbh, his humour mixed with his knowledge about cars is almost spot on.
I think he'd be awesome with a bigger role.

No problem, perhaps I should start a thread and bring this channel more attention as I really do think it is great !
MT's budget isn't as big as Top Gear, I mean who is? but it is still head and shoulders ahead of almost all online car review shows out there. For a free channel on YouTube, the content is great, production is really good, they even have their own racing driver and a test track that they do all the lap times in!
I actually look forward to every new episode or segment that they release, which usually once 2 or 3 days.

He is a bit of noob I have to say.
Not surprised CE went, just did not work with the show.
that's what I meant, and despite the difference has far better scripters,

A guy who lives on my parents road used to cut his hair, apparently he is indeed a tool.

You realise what MT is, right? It's one of the most popular and longest running car magazines in the US and Canada and has been going since the 1940's. It's not some two-bit YouTube channel that started up and ended up with a test track and a racing driver, it's a well established long running brand much older than Top Gear itself.
The reason why they come across as professional is because they very much *are* professionals!
Soldato
I wouldn't be surprised if the beeb sell the show to channel 4 or 5, like they sold F1. They need money badly and with poor ratings, it might be better for them to cut their losses. Or at least, one more try without Chris Evans to see how it goes.

Yes I know they ARE professionals, I don't imagine they work in Walmart between Monday to Fridays.
My point was that it is available FREE, on YT, it is something that I can watch anytime and it has regular content and enough quality content to replace Top Gear. It's all fair to say it is older than Top Gear but MT isn't exactly on our TV on Sunday night like Top Gear is.

Really the only people who carry the new show are MLB and Harris. Sabine is a bit of a forced character in the studio, Eddie is a bit of a blank wall.. It should really be like this, put Matt with a suitable sidekick host, and let Harris do all the cool video segments in his style. That would be almost perfect.
On another note, if we are talking about binning all the hosts and re-re-starting fresh, then this chat came up elsewhere today and I think it would be fantastic. Hugh Laurie, Rowan Atkinson and Stephen Fry. They are all petrol/gadget heads and they are all friends who have that banter going between them. Plus, everybody loves them.
