Thank you lord, for not only ending the horrific season of "US Topgear" and starting a great season of the real Top Gear- right here in NC

, and in Ruttlege's back yard

It's the best thing on UK TV no doubt, I just wish they would do more episodes per year, I seem to be constantly waiting for the next series to start.

It would've been great to meet those guys when they were here.
It was neat to see NC in the spotlight with a minimum of the "Hillbilly or "Redneck" references for a change.
Seeing Jeremy jam to "Copperhead Row" was unexpected...

I like the fact these episodes are in their original UK version (a.k.a. extended cut) for season #15.
More Top Gear =

Anyone have any ideas who the new Stig is? I don't know how but I totally missed that Schumy out'd himself two seasons ago.

no idea who the new stig is, i just realised today they had a new one ! but i agree, yes excited @ more top gear. also, i am from usa, but please i dont understand why we make terrible knock offs of good British shows, Top Gear, Being Human, and whatever else. on the advertisements for the US being human, it says '' Being human, an original series "... they even wear the same clothing lol, how is that original ?

we had a new uk episode air in australia last night, not sure where aus stand's age wise of the episode though, it was the one where they travel through iran/iraq etc and was a very well put together show as per usual, man they are funny guy's. ive never seen the u.s version and our aus version suck's big time too say the least, we have a decent main host now! he is cool and the other guys are friggen nerd's

the original reigns supreme!!!!

Iran Iraq was the second of 2 christmas specials in UK with the birth of the stig, who was never Schumie, they just played that as he had to drive his own Ferrari, we have just has episode 3 of the latest series last Sunday only 3 more to go, first had V8 Aerial Atom, second was dropping a beetle from a great height, third was a lot set in Albania.

We got the first 2 all in the same day

, but sadly I was afraid that we would get only 6 weeks again this year

One of these days I'll have to find a place to put up Season 1-10 I have on disks. I love how upside down the show was in 02... Clarkson had big hair, Hammond had short hair and the first episode crowd is about 8 people LOL.

when you find the time, just LMK

I'll send you the disks! I came into the show late and didn't see any of the early shows- just the last 3 seasons- ( was busy watching FIA WRC before they dropped it)
