The Grand Tour

Overall I thought it was great. I did get the impression that they were a little nervous during the studio/tent scenes which is understandable as it is such a huge deal that needs to succeed. Playing to an non British audience must be a little intimidating. Hopefully that will disappear over the next few episodes.

The beauty is the fact they are all in competition with each other...Netflix just released The Crown , the most expensive TV ever made...
Black Mirror exclusives...Amazon Prime exclusives....TV is changing and I mostly stream my content now through prime ,Netflix and now Tv
I was really looking forward to this, and certainly there was plenty to like, but I just felt it was dragging on a bit. I know it's a "new show" and so I'm sure next week will be better (genuinely thought we were going to get celebrity garbage for a bit, despite having read that it wasn't featuring, so was a bit worried) without the intro stuff. Preferred Chris Harris' roundup of the hyper cars personally, and given that was done well over a year ago at the exact same track, it didn't fill me with the same interest as it could have done. Clearly though, for the majority of people, it'll be new.
Digs at the BBC were good fun (and I'm a great fan of the BBC), and I'm glad to see the humour and chemistry is still there. Disappointed they didn't do a thing with the 3 Mustangs from the intro though.

Content on streaming sites lately have been excellent. I hope they keep it up
I quite liked it, I wasn't expecting to like it, to be honest.
It is what it is, they were never going to change too much. I would say the bigger change should have been on the actual Top Gear show because these three made it what it was, they're never going to change much and the beeb had a good opportunity to revamp a show which was going a bit stale.
I don't compare them to Chris Harris because they're not really comparable in my eyes, these three are more about the entertainment as a package and the odd occasion where there is an unscripted joke.

You know what. The first 5 mins of this I enjoyed, but then it really felt like they were trying too hard. I laughed though, a lot. More than I did with CE on TG, but I wasn't really feeling that. I do hope it gets better though. Felt like they were laying a lot of foundation for this so I genuinely hope it works out for them
