c) The US show does not have Jeremy Clarkson, who is a total a**hole but mysteriously still likeable
d) Overall the chemistry between the 3 US guys doesn't work at all, and the BBC show is all based on this chemistry
So I am looking forward to Season 16 of the real TopGear

Hopefully the US version will be aborted sooner rather than later. I honestly do not know why they even attempted to replicate UK Top Gear, it's impossible to even get close. The first couple of years the UK guys were together it wasn't that good either though, it took quite awhile for the chemistry to develop. FWIW, the Aussie version isn't much better.
