Top Gears new dream team.




Has the new Top Gear panel been revealed?

Life on Mars actor, and current car show host Philip Glenister, the Classic Car Show's Jodie Kidd and motoring presenter Guy Martin are reportedly in line for the most coveted jobs in motoring television, claims the Sunday Express.
It might be Top Gear's dream team, but nobody is going to watch it.

I really don't care for the Top Gear USA presenters. Especially Rutledge. I just can't stand him. Won't watch him in anything.

First time I ever saw him was on a Nascar thing, he had a Mohawk, some crazy color. I think he was part of the 'new look' of nascar to draw in the young hip fans.

The comedian I have not heard of, and he really makes me want to turn the channel. Tanner is a real driver, but it seems that he might be a bit of a d-bag. Nothing to base that on.

Long story short, just give it up. Go make another Atlanta Housewives or something.

Rutledge is just one of those guys that I want to punch in the face as soon as he talks. There's just something about him that makes me want to hit him

Bogus article title.

as Netflix is looking to hire the Top Gear trio for a car show of its own.
Just rehashing the rumor from last week basically.

BBC will get a hard hit on this one based on they popularity.

i am not sure one slap worth it to destroy they own show.... I mean there are bigger things happening behind a scenes at that level , and they keep things on track. Just saying...

That is actually BBC loss.
"With more than 350 million weekly viewers, "Top Gear" set the Guinness World record as the most watched factual TV program in the world. In addition to the UK show, the Top Gear brand includes numerous international spinoffs, a live stadium tour, merchandising, a successful magazine, and a website. "

anyhow, i wonder when they will be on air again in their new show.

It's still just a "report" - in other words, someone heard something from someone.

Until the "report" is from Netflix themselves, it's rumor mill, even if those rumors have a strong chance of being true.

Yeah, I was glad that Mays and Hammond turned down the BBC money.
