Is it possible, however, that it would still be entertaining? The slightest possibility? Do you think you might rather watch an American top gear, or say, "Dancing with the Stars" or "American Idol"?

You know, I'll say it can be as good. Top Gear gets its facts wrong every once in awhile (like when that idiot Hammond put the GT500 on a dyno then acted all surprised that the horsepower number was less than advertised because it was at the wheels and didn't account for drivetrain losses, that kind of stupidity really puts a damper on my enjoyment of the show when they can't even get the basics right) and I'm getting sick of the endless test drives of Aston Martins, they are not that good! Even some of their comparisons are retarded, like when Clarkson pitted an Exige S against a Mustang GT (never mind the fact that the Lotus is a lot lighter, a lot more expensive and has better suspension) then lorded over the fact that the little Brit car beat the Yank Tank.
Will it be different? Yeah, will people compare it (probably unfairly) to the original? Yeah.
Should it at least be given a chance before declaring it retarded and not worth watching? Yeah.
Their is an Australian version of Top Gear coming as well, and I'll download that as soon as they become available.
