guzzi850m2 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Yes I watched it last night as well, I rather not say how I got hold of it. Found the jokes in front of the audience a bit silly. The ex nas car driver complains about the BMW M2 in a stupid way. Okay the test of the super hybrid cars were pretty good. Far from as good as the best of the Top Gear episodes, but lets see, more to come. I give it a 6 of of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldcarguy Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Maybe the slowest hour or so I can remember......seemed like it just went on and on....... Car stuff was as good as Top gears , but the "Drama" was pretty stupid , No idea who this Nascar driver is , not a 'Big" name , same as the Belgie "Stig" no idea who he is,,,,,, But Amazon will be happy , hopefully they can find a way to sell it to non-amazon countries and make some $$$$ back , and from the previews clip it looks like it will have a lot of Fun stuff in the next shows Glad its back....

Henryford Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Saw it last night. It was OK but i thought not as good as the old TG. A lot of the programme was just a series of contrived, and not really funny, jokes, like fighting with the audience and killing off the guests. The best bits were of course about the cars. Missed the celebrity in a reasonably priced car, i suppose they are not allowed to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaseTheBass Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I hope someone at the BBC realises that Chris Harris on Cars is what is needed. Top Gear and that format is well past it's sell by date and should be binned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I watched the Grand Tour on Saturday. I thought that the production values were very high, and it was obvious from the start that their budget was very large: the opening sequence was very well done. I wasnt sure about the idea of presenting the show from different countries, as they seemed to spend a lot of time translating English words and ideas for the benefit of the "colonials". It's obvious why Amazon wanted a global approach though. I enjoyed the banter but found the car test segments to be very boring (I'm not interested in cars). I was waiting for an amusing "road trip" segment in some exotic location with challenges, which never really appeared. It may be that they are prevented from doing this by their agreement with the BBC, in which case the series may rapidly become quite dull. However nothing could possibly be as boring and just plain naff as the new Top Gear, with or without the twin prats Chris Evans and Matt Leblanc. Which producer thought of having chefs cooking on the back of motorbikes? Talk about dumbing down. "I'm a celebrity, get me out of this TV series."

Anythingleft? Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Lets see what the next episode turns out like, this was a bit dreary just lots of shouting by the little gimp againSent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldcarguy Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I think they will get into a groove after a few shows , and next season go back to a base in the UK or UK and California what made the old show fun was the the specials around the world , test driving cars we will never own , silly things like driving to France or building a camper , and just joking around , and of course the crashes ! I hope they post a backstage view of the "Burning man" scene so we can see some of the crazy cars, Amazon has enough money to keep the insanity going , hopefully the "Boys" have enough crazy ideas And insulting the "Yanks" was expected but was way too long , stupid and ended up insulting the RAF , there are still lots of TG on you tube to compare the 2 ..........lets hope Grand Tour stays around long enough to get as good as TG was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsensam Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 clearly a big budget but so little spent on the script, the 'jokes' were pretty awful, too much swearing, it seemed a little awkward at times, trying to appeal to an american audience. unfortunately.

They did similar things on Top Gear (army assault course) but perhaps not for quite so long, and top Gear had it's fair share of silly segments, like destroying caravans etc. I just fast forward through all the rubbish now and just watch actual road tests.

Don Mega Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 (edited) Chuckin nuts seffa style was rather amusing but they shoulda had " Ugly Boy" by Die Antwoord playing instead of the techno dribble.

oldcarguy Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Number 3 was better , some of the "jokes" went on too long , they need to pay a few more writers , At least most of it was cars driving around nice countryside....... and the last 10 minutes was classic :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jitar Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Yeah, Episode 3 was better, I hope the improvement continues. Time to give up on Killing off the celebrity. Repeating the same joke week after week doesn't make it any funnier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve187 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 ep1 was ok, ep2 i spent a lot of time fast forwarding, here's hoping ep3 will be better, if not then why waste an hour of the time i have left for ep4 agree celebrity kill is plain stupid, the army training segment was too long.
