The UK version is pretty horrific these days, too. You get the odd decent episode, but it's been painfully cringeworthy for years.

Agreed. Them driving sweet cars from Italy to France to England and capping on folks in small villages gets old fast. Yes, they drive sweeeeeet cars.

Pretty much this. Can always count on them to make snarky commentary about some car that doesn't fit into what's "proper". I know it's an entertainment show and all, just doesn't do much for me. Do remember the other versions are still tied in to BBC, hence similar content.

However, I can say of TG:US that Rutledge is a pretty chill guy (from what I've heard people talk of him at The Car Lounge) and does love cars. So hey.

Then again I prefer Motorweek to TG...
