LG Gone Wild Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Rent it from Netflix. Unfortunately, they only have season 10 available. Watch it for yourself, then purchase it for the men in your life. I am an avowed Anglophile but sometimes they do odd things. I don't know why they have released season 10 but neglected to do so for Seasons 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Strange, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim in Appalachia Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 What's it about? Is it just about gear? Or does is it a show with a plot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriedClams Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 I am NOT a car person - but I LOVE Top Gear. It's HILARIOUS. I have a secret crush on Richard. He's got such white teeth. (That's a TG joke for those who think I'm strange). My husband's ring tone is the TG theme song. LOL. I want a Bugatti Veyron. And to think 2 years ago I wouldn't have know what that was... LOL!!!

JennW in SoCal Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 OOOHHH!! We LOVE Top Gear too! Our dream cross-over television show would be having the Mythbusters and Top Gear guys do a show together!! And for Kim, Top Gear is a BBC show about cars. It has no plot, nothing about it that should appeal to us homeschool moms except that it is bloody funny! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i.love.lucy Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Oh we LOVE Top Gear here too! Unfortunately Richard is too short for me.:tongue_smilie: Did you see the episode where they bought a camper (they call it a "caravan" I think) and hilarity ensued? OMG I was rolling!:lol: I also love it when they play soccer or hockey with cars. Absolutely classic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usetoschool Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 My whole family loves that show!

Jlynn Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 We love this show! They do have partial episodes online...love the RV one! And, they should be coming out with Seasons 11 & 12 on DVD in a couple of months. Here's an online place to watch some of them... http://www.casttv.com/shows/top-gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot believe those episodes are available to watch, we are in mourning every time we're between seasons and can only watch reruns. I really never thought I would be discussing Top Gear on the Hive!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wulfbourne Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Hubby and I love this show. We've downloaded seasons 5-13, and we're anxiously awaiting season 14 to start later this month! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 UGH! I've caught it a few times and love it, especially the one where they drove across Europe on one tank of gas. But I'm a car gal. I keep forgetting when it airs. Off to add to my Netflix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He watches them while he runs on the treadmill in the winter. Overall we are a family who enjoys British humor. We'll have to check it out.

LG Gone Wild Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 The other gut busting one was seeing Jeremy fold his 6'5" body into the Peel 50! That episode is Season 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH is a car nut and it would be good to have something car-related but still fun for us to watch together. Also, when I went to add it to my Netflix, all seasons except 6 and 7 came up with a save option so I guess they're releasing them all.

Kate in Arabia Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 My ds 11 also loves this show, it comes twice a week on one of the stations here. I particularly liked the episode where they were racing to see who could get to the North Pole first -- I generally like their foreign racing bits (where they race each other across different countries) best.

Audrey Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Ooo! We love this show too! I harbour secret fantasies of unmasking The Stig. :blushing: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb in NZ Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 my boys & dh LOVE it. I agree it is funny, but I'd much rather watch something else. But then again I don't go for slapstick comedy that has the men in my house rolling on the floor. Audrey, the Stig was unmasked in the series just shown in NZ. Want to know who the Stig really is?

Jenny in Atl Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I always know when dh is taking a break from work... I can hear Top Gear playing from the basement, and ever present laughter that follows. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brehon Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 :iagree: And I never thought I'd be willingly watching a car show. Another TG fan here. And I really don't like car shows, Nascar (guess where dh is this weekend?), etc. One of my favorite episodes was when they were in Vietnam. I hadn't laughed that hard in a long time.
