    TG US has come to an end on History.

    Which i think is a bit of a shame, the show really was getting into its stride

    Never seen it, but going by the fact that Top Gear has now got UK/US presenters I think it was inevitable.

    i liked it, was kinda like old TG, they were competitive and messing with each other during tasks etc. People are so fixed on old TG UK they wont give any other show a chance, its good when you watch a good few episodes

    It really got its rhythm by the third series, and they did some more American challenges

    It really came into it's own. Was a decent car show.

    It's returning as Top Gear America, and will be hosted by actor William Fichtner, drag racer Antron Brown and auto journalist Tom “Wookie” Ford.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Not taking any risks with that line up. It's like a mirror image of the UK cast. I think now that Clarkson and co are gone top gear could become a very bland and by the numbers franchise.

    Rutledge, Tanner and Adam (Outgoing hosts) could be coming back with they're own show:

    Once they ditched just trying to copy Top Gear UK the show improved vastly and I for one really liked it. They really gelled as hosts after a while and some of the locations they went to were just amazing.
    Looking forward to seeing what they come up with.
