Is Top Gear about the cars or about celebrity?
Well because it adds a “talk show element” to the show. I don’t have a problem with it but I’m not in love with it either. Some of the guests have been entertaining and fun to watch on the track but a lot of others I had never even heard of before and really dont care about at all.

I don’t have a problem with anything about Top Gear before this season. But this season they have taken their stupid little skits, like the radio bit, convertible mini-van bit, and the car boat bit way too far. There used to be just a few and most were pretty cool, like the 430/GT/Zonda in France piece. That was a great one! But now they are silly and boring and just take up time that they could use testing and reviewing cars. I would rather have the "celebrity driver" if it meant a lot less of the stupid little skits!
