I’d be pissed, too.
Hell, I’ve been given hot meals as BG after filming late on a movie.

I’ll probably watch it over the weekend.
PlutoTV has a Top Gear channel and I turn it off when season 23 starts.

One thing I noticed is how fat they are all getting. Jeremy has always been fat but he is getting absolutely slovenly now. Even Hamster seems to have given up.

Speaking of, I always like to post this video since it came out: Youtube
For those needing their fix on the three, their Drive Tribe channel is not too bad. Drive Tribe
ETA: Also a really honest interview from Hammond: LINK

Celebrity deaths don’t normally register for me, but when one of these chaps cross the rainbow road I will be legit bummed
Spent lots of time laughing along with them because I feel like one of the boys

The last 20 mins or so really felt like old Top Gear at its peak. Finally bringing back the A-Team music (which was clearly cut in the last in Amazon for budgetary reasons) and the M83 Outro on the beach drive was the show's magic in all its glory.
The music always made such a huge impact on the show and losing that when they left BBC really hurt the production value a lot.
Clarkson has apparently said his farm show isn't going away but they have been pretty mum on the GT/Top Gear style adventure show format. I think the next one in Tanzania (or Namibia, I can't remember) will be the last we ever really see of these three in that setting. It will truly be sad when it ends, but they're all so old now, they really can't keep it up much longer.
There's also just no way you're ever going to get Jeremy or May to drive this pieces of shot cars or bikes anymore across 1000+ miles of third world terrain.
It's makes me just want to go back and watch Vietnam or Bolivia or races against a subway train or boat all over again...

Clarkson’s snowmobile breaking away and driving off across the desert cracked me up.

Easy, the truck was a Toyota and a Toyota can do anything.

tour...but exotic locations is not a crutch. Testament to the banter and jokes.
The banter and jokes are so scripted and stage that they make me cringe.
It's only the locations that me halfway interested.
I'm halfway through with this episode and it's a struggle at times to keep watching.

Supposed to be one more. It is hard for them to film without drawing huge crowds due to their global fame and social media. The stuff from 2004 to about 2012 was the best. Hard to believe it has been 20 years.

It really picks up toward the end.
I thought it was pretty good. There are some good throwback moments and some nostalgia knowing these boys who have made my son and I laugh and watch together for so long likely don't have many more specials left in them.

The day the trio hang it up for good will truly be a sad day for the world.. I watch every bit of content that all three put out, and cannot get enough of it... I've seen every TG/GT episode, and its consistantly the top 10% of what is being produced... shite, I damn near cried at the end of GT when they said they were hanging it up
There is something magical about all three together... idk what it is... their ridiculousness, their patter, their connection, or their individuality...but it works so damn well together where others have failed
I truly do not want to see the day where these three are not on screen together
As to Sand Job... I laughed my arse off at the snowmobile, and them at the British Consulate... it was a very good episode, and it felt like a classic episode throughout... especially when they tried to cross the river... loved every second of it
I usually follow up a newer episode with the Seamen episode, because I think that is my favorite of the new one-offs...

I used to bang on Clarkson because he was arrogant and shite on American cars...eh, who cares, the show was for a British audience...so he had an angle to play the crowd.
I've enjoyed all their specials, even the non-car ones.

It's been a great trio and very enjoyable TV. Their worst is still better than most.
