You have to remember that the whole concept had already been done to death by the original musketeers. We were all moaning that it had gone stale and was too samey, so introducing two less talented presenters and giving them inferior material to work with was never going to work.
It was just the beeb trying to prove they could do it without Clarkson.
They spend a huge amount of our money on this programme and that wasn't a problem when they could make a massive profit selling it abroad. But I doubt they'll recoup what they invest in this series, unless it's already pre-sold. Again, I doubt many buyers will want a second series, the format is too familiar.
Totally disagree, yea the JC series was starting to get tied, but it still had legs, and tons of followers.
I reckon, like me, most people watched the show tonight, prepared to give it a go, and hoping it would go with a bang, the BBC have had enough time and funds to prepare for that. But no, the show was just rubbish, Evans was rubbish, shouting he's way through the script, its almost like Evans has done all he's homework buy watching all the JC shows and just tried to mimic them all.
Sad, that such a Show with so many followers and fans can be destroyed so easily within the first few mins of a re launch.
