Because every time the Top Gear production team sees a post with inappropriate numbers of question marks, or unnecessary capitalisation, they cancel a planned episode.

Too many episodes = few ideas left

Whaddya mean, "only 8 episodes?" You young punks think you're so great. Back when I was young, I had to string a wire to the top of the tallest hill in town, through driving snow up to my waist UPHILL BOTH WAYS, just so I could watch a single episode of Top Gear, and I thanked the Lord at the end of every episode for being gracious enough to allow the signal to be picked up so clearly...

Great. Now we'll have a negative amount of episodes. How's that going to work, anyway?

I don't know if your blind or just totally ignorant but the only threads you ever make, have bigger ones that already exist for the content that you engaged in.

This is no different. We all had opinions on the eight-episode series (particularly me) and we all put them in the thread link, as posted by mgkdk.

DON'T start threads when there already is one for you to use to discuss stuff.
