Arise, [Clarkson on] Top Gear!
 
Officially

I had just read about this a few hours ago. I hope the trio leaves and starts a new show, through Netflix or HBO or something.

Wont be the same without Jeremy, and I read that James/Richard are leaving too if Jeremy leaves.

Welp,

Time to DL all episodes.

Hope they continue as a trio on new endeavors.

Assuming Hammond and May stay, I'd be curious who they try to replace Clarkson with. Regardless I think this is their "jumping the shark" moment.

Yep RIP TG.
Almost swapped my MX in for a Reliant Robin.....Some Say!

Time for some top Clarkson quotes maybe?

Some say, he only knows two facts about ducks and both of them are wrong.

R.I.P TG. :'(

Is the Stig character owned by BBC? There's no Stig in USTG, right? I've never watched USTG.

Top Gear is dead.

Long live Top Gear...

He has shown up a few times on the US TG.


There is some rumors flying around that JC already had a deal for a new show. I hope they are true. Or... they could take over US Top Gear!

Stig is owned & licensed by BBC

Id like to download the old Top Gear episodes starting around '88 when Clarkson joined.

I have some from 89-93 and his "Afro" is hilarious. :D

Found the one I was thinking about

Full_Tilt_Boogie 03-25-2015 05:21 PM

I watched a bunch of the late 90s ones, some of which I had actually seen on TV way back when (probably the best thing I ever found on satellite TV)

Ive heard that the show got good when Clarkson came on and was pretty dry before that, and of course it got more exciting when "New" Top Gear started.

my97miata 03-25-2015 06:51 PM

I'm thinking BBC will replace Jeremy, of course the show won't be the same. After a few episodes people will come to accept the new guy for who he or she is.
I do know person needs to be funny with comedy being a major factor in the the show's success.

Efini~FC3S 03-25-2015 07:01 PM

^ I seriously doubt this.

I really don't think the other two will try to continue the show without Jezza.

NiklasFalk 03-25-2015 07:17 PM

They will probably start a new "Final Gear" somewhere :D

The forum on finalgear is still there though (conflict of interest)...
