Is Top Gear the best show on television?

I can't find anything wrong with it besides maybe not getting British pop humor during the interviews

I usually have to wikipedia their star guests but that is my only qualm.

You talking about the Brit version? It's pretty good. My favorite episode is when they bought beaters in Florida and drove from Florida through Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, to Louisiana.
This was post Katrina. They tried to sell the cars for next to nothing. No one would take them. Then, they tried to give the cars away. No one would take them.
I like the American version too.

The US version was terrible to start, but it is getting better. It will still never top the UK version though. I've only seen a few episodes of Australia but apparently it was canceled. I've never seen Russia or Korea, but obviously they won't measure up to the original. The Russian one only lasted a season. It (U.K. version) airs all over the world, so I'm not sure what the reasoning is behind making other adaptations.

No freaking way I would navigate a rally car. That made me nervous just watching.

The UK Top Gear has been the best show on TV for many years.

I think the opposite. The 1st season of the US version showed potential, but then it started to slip. I don't consider it must-see TV anymore.
The UK version is great, but that goes without saying.

It is. I can watch the same episodes dozens of times.

I'm not really, really into cars but Top Gear UK is fascinating and hilarious every time I've watched. Love it.

Their episode across the southwest should air next week. It's a pretty good one. The guest is the drummer from Fleetwook Mac, which was interesting.
