While I'm disappointed at their lack of a 2012 season (due to the Olympics from what I gather), I took it as a time to catch up on other videos they've made both individually (they have their own documentaries) as well as watch some older episodes I've missed or barely remember.

Remember, these guys are journalists first, so they can present any topic well. I'm enjoying some of Hammond's "Crash Course", "Connections in Engineering" as well as other stuff from May, or the usual supercar showdowns from Clarkson.

Journalists my ass. Not on Top Gear... it is so obviously staged.. like a "reality show" almost. Entertaining as hell but i don't put much stock in their opinions. Mostly i just like to watch them mess with one another.

I loved James May's series on toys.

Entertaining my ass. Remember, they present "factual" information, especially to satisfy the US government.
