i had a nice post, then the page didn't load, and i lost everything!!!
so long story short.
Noble... Nice sound, interesting looking, new/good cinamatography. Best review this season in my opinion after the Twingo review.
news.... i watched another christmas news earlier today, and it was the same idea, different gismo's..... and there's nothing wrong with that.
Jenson.... he was more entertaining first time around, and he looked like he had fun in the last 2 corners.
Gallery.... ummmm. Cut 5 minutes of the fluff out. stop destroying things for the sake of a cheap laugh, the statue was actually cool and it was a shame to destroy it.
the segment had great potential, but was let down by the "over the top" sillyness, some sillyness is acceptable, but if you're trying to prove a point, why kill the point before you've prooven it?
and that 5 minutes i said to cut, use it for studio and audience interaction, cool wall (even though i find it silly sometimes) and spending more time looking at cars like the Rapide (i felt short changed on this, they barely talked about the car)
Top Gear is a great show no matter what direction it goes, but i think this series the guys have spread themselves too thin with all their extra carricular activities outside the show, and as a result i think it's suffering. they don't have the same energy and spirit, and you can sense it. however tonight, some of that spirit seemed to be coming back!.
