The Topmost Gear

So I have their little dohickey in the sidebar, but have never bothered to explain. Top Gear. Yummmmy.

Guys, if you're looking for a show about cars (sports cars and super cars, specifically) that your wife will watch with you - THIS IS IT! It is an explosive mix of fact based testing and review of the best cars, as well as stunts and challenges that will have you laughing yourself out of your chair! If you even remotely like cars, you have to give this a show a try. Tracy actually looks forward to watching this show with me - that's right - LOOKS FORWARD to it!

They dish it out for all types of cars though, so you'd better have thick skin. If you're driving a Mustang "you're the type that looks at your sister and says, Hmmm!" But they let me have it, too. They said, "The Audi TT is a comfortable ride to the hairdresser for guys who use moisturizer". And yet I still watch the show...

Check them out:

It has been a long wait between seasons (or "series" as the Brits call them), but the season premier finally played on Monday. They are back, and so worth the wait.

Unfortunately, unlike our 24 weeks worth, a British "series" is only 10 episodes long.

That's like a kick in the "wedding vegetables".

I saw the one with them trying to cross the English Channel - hilarious! Especially when they almost got run over by the ferry that was coming in from France.
