Ok, so this week’s TopGear was funnier than last week’s season premier show. The Audi R8 was nice, but alas I won’t be in the market for a super-car for at least several lifetimes, so it was just car porn. This week the funniest moments in no particular order were:
1. James Smoking the pipe as if he was at home.
2. Jeremy burning his mouth on his Porsche pipe.
3. Jeremy scraping the underside of a viaduct with the fishing poles sticking out of his truck.
4. The foam on fire in all 3 amphibious vehicles on their way to Dover.
5. Jeremy trying to push James’ Triumph Herald off the dock when they arrive.
We were cackling so loud at this show that the relatives and guests visiting my parent’s house had to come in and watch the end with us. We had 11 people in front of the TV watching these 3 guys mucking about in the English Channel. Most of them had never seen it before, and are going to go look it up on BBC America now. You just can’t deny the lovability of this show. All my brother’s friends are obsessed and their girlfriends are obsessed and my dad’s coworkers are obsessed too. I have one or two coworkers that are into it, but not in this office. Chicagoans are somewhat hard to impress. TG would only show up here if they would be doin g some tour of America’s fattiest food or something.
Anyway, I leave you with the best comment from last week’s show while driving through the Swiss Alps: ” The Hills are Alive with the sound of Horsepower” Sing along with us…
