OHHHH NO!!!
this quote is sooo true tho:
"Part of the show's appeal, to many viewers, has been it's sort of edginess and the fact that it's rough around the edges - in some ways takes no prisoners."

Agreed. He is what hooked me years ago when i accidently watched an eposode and laughed so hard through the entire show.
The home made campers episode when jc drove rhe 3 story tall citroeen camper car.

He is a colossal asshole, but that is what makes the show. There are those who complain how harsh he is especially on American cars. If you had carte blanche to drive the shit out of the finest automobiles in the world you'd have the same attitude. From what I remember he was fairly positive on the ZR1 when it debuted.

Other than the build quality of the c6 zr1 he was positive about the car. I think he is the perfect fit for the show... the lack of a CLARKSON is part of what makes the American TG... poop.

Top Gear without Clarkson would be the demise of the show. It is well balanced with the cast. Actually kind of pissed off about the thought of him not being on there and the show going to the wayside.

I think they may have cancelled it. The last season was really short.

I wouldnt be surprised if they reversed their suspension at some point, it seems like clarkson is getting a lot if support from everybody...no matter how big of an asshole he is lol and i have to say, they loved the new c7 although i cant remember if they reviewed the base or the zo6

I think the show will be back. 2 popular to kill it. Hell, 2 years ago was supposed to be the final season... that didnt work out either.

supposedly clarkson quit over the weekend, but there was an episode on last night that i dont think i had seen before and it was in the slot where a new episode would be. info said it was 2015 and i have seen every one this season so idk. if clarkson did quit, i would imagine that would be the end of top gear...which sucks

You are correct. My DVR recorded it. Def new... amd also a 2 part episode...so should be more next week.

ya that was nuts, dont think i have seen any of them put an expensive car into a wall before...
i noticed that they never went to the studio (for obvious reasons), so i am guessing the roadtrip was shot a while ago and they are just playing it in place of an actual episode to take up the slot until the season is done. i would say no more top gear after this season unless something drastic happenes :cry:

If they fire Jeremy and the show dies, I am going to be pissed and want BBC taken off my Verizon. Nothing else on that chanel I watch.

One day at a time... for now, we still have "new" episodes...

My wife and I love the show. I love the banter between the ape, hamster and Captain Slow. There isn't an episode that goes by where I'm not laughing out loud several times. Jeremy is an arse of course but he IS the show.
They did do a USA road tour from San Fran to Bonneville where he fell in love with the Corvette, I believe it was the ZR1.

The US Top Gear is rubbish. I tried to like it, just couldn't do it. The yankee and Tanner both irritate me beyond belief. The Aussie version is better but nothing matches up to the original.

I saw that on comcast news as well. I didnt know he was worth over 55 million dollars. Shit, I bet he is happy.

yup, removed it from my DVR since i have seen pretty much every episode at least 3 times lol. maybe clarkson will pop up with a new show or something, but he is probably set and doesnt have to work anymore so wont bother. its too bad, they had a great thing going....stupid BBC

Hes worth 55 million. Hes probably happy to be done after 20+ years of it.

Full episode is on YouTube. Picture is not perfect but is watchable. BBC never promoted it and then bitched the ratings were the lowest ever. Fuck them.

It is pretty good and bittersweet. I can't wait till itv and Netflix start showing the boys again in the new show.

The very substantiated rumor is that since Clarkson owns the rights to the format and that May and Hammond both left BBC that a new show is in the works. There have been leaks online of them filming. ITV and Netflix have both expressed interest in running the series in the US and internationally. The name being bounced around is "House of Cars." BBC owns Top Gear and have already picked 2 new hosts. Chris Evans is 1. I am keeping a close eye on this as you can tell.
