Love this show... It's impossible to get through an entire episode without laughing my ass off.

Those guys are living the dream

Clarkson has been fired. Top Gear as we know it is dead. :tsk:

Apparently it will continue without him? But won't be the same without him.

Odd since I think it was his original idea? And he sold it to BBC? Something like that.

There is always Fifth Gear. Not quite as humorous but nearly as entertaining.

Im sure the 3 of them will find a new home. It will be interesting to see what kind of non-competes they have in their contracts, but the show is broadcast worldwide. Someone outside of the BBC will hire them to do a car show.

Report: The BBC has chosen its new 'Top Gear' hosts
The BBC has reportedly selected its "dream team" for the next season of its hit car show, "Top Gear."
According to the Telegraph's James Rothwell, the trio will consist of model Jodie Kidd, actor Philip Glenister, and television host Guy Martin.
Kidd, 36, is a a noted fashion model and TV personality who currently hosts "The Classic Car Show" on the UK's Channel 5. Kidd is a well-known car enthusiast and has appeared on "Top Gear" twice as guest.
Glenister, 52, has had leading roles on the British TV shows "Life on Mars" and "Ashes to Ashes." The actor currently hosts "For the Love of Cars" on Channel 4 in the UK.
Martin, 33, is a successful TV host and motorcycle racer. He's made nearly a dozen appearances at the prestigious Tourist Trophy motorcycle race on the Isle of Man.
The new hosts will take over for Jeremy Clarkson – removed from the show after nearly 30 years at the helm due to a fracas with a producer – as well as Richard Hammond and James May, both of whom chose not to renew their contracts.
Longtime executive producer Andy Wilman has also left the show.
The BBC has not set a formal date for season 23 of "Top Gear."

Is this just another typical case where a network tries to "reinvent" the magic and it fails in comparison??
