Top Gear - worst show ever to be successful.

I wasn't aware that Top Gear post Clarkson was successful. It certainly wasn't the same show and was dire.

The BBC apparently lost millions of viewers after they sacked him- self inflicted injury.

You are writing about the American version, right? 

Clarkson is boorish and bigoted. Show was watched by bored bigots.

I don't find him remotely funny in fact I consider him to be a vile piece of excrement.

Hardly entitled.

 

Exactly.

 

He speaks the truth so they call him a bigot.

 

He's very successful so they call him entitled.

 

Jealousy is a terrible thing. Even worse when it comes from Woke/Liberal failures.

Bigots like other bigots. He went to Asia and called the people "slopes". He abused the crew.

He got the sack and most people who worked with him hated him. He was only liked by racists and other bigots.

Do you have links for that, or are you guessing because he is one up on you...?

And the best that you can offer up is a nearly 9 year old report from March 12th 2015?

 

Can you not find anything newer than that?

 

According tp the report, ' many Brits hate Clarkson', but the report fails to give any percentage that amounts to.

 

So please tell all us Clarkson non-haters how many Brits as a percentage actually "hate" Clarkson and if you find the link, please make sure it is less than a couple of years old, otherwise it will be as useless and meaningless as this link you gave.

So you are saying most Brits like watching racists on tv? Interesting theory you have.

Not only are you incredibly boring and repetitive you seem to have acquired the habit of putting YOUR words into other people mouths when they haven't said anything like that at. Just as you have done to me.

You support a known racist who also bullies women. That's how boring you are.

There you go once again assuming that Clarkson is MY favourite TV star.

 

A stupid thing to say as you know nothing about me.

 

It is about par for your abysmal posting level though.
