Top Gear is probably my favorite show on the idiot box. The UK version. See, I now have to say “UK version” because there is now a US version of the show. Which I hate. The show and having to say that it’s the UK version I like.
The reason I watch this car show is because it’s not like the Dude, typical straight bubba shows on the TV network known as Spike. I’m really into cars, not looking a boob jobs being scraped across the hood of cars. UK Top Gear? No boobs. Just witty boobs talking about cars, and cute James May. Then suddenly my DVR decided I needed to watch the US Top Gear, Oooo more cool car shows!?
No. It’s like the History Channel decided to take the lobby of the Smithsonian and put a Hooters in it. You can still see the lunar rover and the Wright Brothers’ plane, just with BBQ sauce on your hands. The wit is gone and replaced with dumb-downed dude jokes. Really? Can the hosts put on a clean shirt? No.
So, I guess I won’t be updating my Scruff profile. Unless I really want every gay guy that’s not seen Christine Aguilera in concert* to know what I crazy person I really am. Which you already knew.
*Grindr = Has seen Christine Aguilera in concert
Scruff = Has not seen Christine Aguilera in concert
Did you mean cute Richard Hammond? The short one?
ReplyDeleteI have not seen Aguilera in concert. I would rather gnaw my fingers off. Love Top Gear. The UK version. ;o)
ReplyDeleteI agree, the UK version is better
ReplyDeleteOh. It's a TV show. I was imagining something completely different.
ReplyDeleteWatched the US version once. Came to he conclusion that it needed at least a couple years to settle into its own voice... Complete dreck for now, but maybe it can find a better way to translate from the original English.
ReplyDeleteI don't know too much about cars but I like 'Top Gear' as well. I like their sense of humour and most of the stories. Clarkson can be obnoxious some times but it's fine.
ReplyDeleteI love Xtina... but have never seen her in concert.
ReplyDeleteUnless "Burlesque" counts.
