I was skeptical, since the show is about cars...but I ended up watching an episode, in which the show's hosts towed a dinky camping trailer on a trip and ended up accidentally burning it to the ground at the campsite. Funniest damn thing I have ever seen on television. I'm hooked.</p> http://gothamist.com/2008/03/16/noteworthy_tele_61.php#comment-1315090 http://gothamist.com/2008/03/16/noteworthy_tele_61.php#comment-1315090 Comments Sun, 16 Mar 2008 19:07:58 -0500 <p>The first time I saw Top Gear was as part of the in-flight entertainment on Icelandair. I was hysterical laughing and near tears several times during the two episodes shown. I'm sure other passengers wondered what I was smoking. I've watched a few episodes on BBCA since, but can't say as they measured up.</p> http://gothamist.com/2008/03/16/noteworthy_tele_61.php#comment-1315071 http://gothamist.com/2008/03/16/noteworthy_tele_61.php#comment-1315071 Comments Sun, 16 Mar 2008 18:01:11 -0500 <p>We saw this show once and these guys may all be mezzo-finookios and they are funny mamalukes.</p>
