Top gear

The scripting in the show is getting a bit ridiculous now. Sure, it was always scripted, but a lot of the content was unscripted and they just ran with it. Every line now seems to be scripted and rehearsed.

Top Gear isn't what it used to be. BBC has also slashed their budget.
 
season 19 was a big step up from previous seasons, was very enjoyable especially the africa special. i'm hoping season 20 will also be good.
 
Fifth Gear is a car show. Top Gear is an entertainment show, that's the difference.
 
Episode 2 was a bit ridiculous of Season 20. Episode 3 made up for that...
 
Agree on the episode 2 being crap.
Why do i care about some guys running around the bbc building?

Sure, its nice to have 1 fun segment for each show, but it seemed the whole show was just stupid stuff.

I think it's the hovercraft challenge so I hope it does. E2 was a bit of a let down, even the Ferrari review was pretty useless.

The one gripe I have with all TG episodes is the star in a reasonably priced car segment. Easily the most boring and pointless segment on the show. I really don't give a damn about what some actor or whatever is up to in their lives, let alone see them drive around the track.
 
The 2 hovercraft segments finally started to feel like the Top Gear of old.
 
Ag, I'll give it a go anyway.
Been a while since I've watched any TG anyhow.

Guess I should skip S20E02 :)

You can see BBC's recent massive budget cuts reflect in this episode. Heavily over-scripted, and just lacks that good entertainment factor. Sad really.
