So, I thought it was supposed to be tonight, but I saw the premiere episode of Grand Tour on Amazon Prime last night. It was great! Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May were as zany and colorful as they ever were in Top Gear. I look forward to the future episodes.

Tried to, but the image was so bad we punted and will watch later. I assume so many people were watching that Amazon couldn't handle the traffic on the back end.

Watched it last night. Pretty good show. They copied a lot of the antics they had on Top Gear with just enough twist to make it different. Being an internet based show will make it easier to catch each episode during the week without having to be in front of the tube at the same time. Makes it easier to pause for potty breaks too!

That's a bummer it didn't work for you TRW, hopefully you can catch it later.

I liked it. That new track they have setup looks interesting for sure.

I also liked the "American." Definitely a good character. I hope they keep him around. I understand they probably couldn't use "the Stig" because of intellectual property agreements and such.

Well, we did finally watch it last night with no problem. Very nice to have these guys back with new shows.

I also noticed that Amazon Prime picked up quite a bit of Top Gear. Only the last season or two is missing from Amazon Prime. Luckily, I can watch those on Netflix. Plus, Top Gear USA streams on Hulu. Who cares about the new Top Gear?
