    Default Top gear vs Fifth gear

    Whats your favourite, for me its fifth gear as they cut right to the chase and test drive the s##t out the cars, theres is still some humor but not excessive like top gear, I hate that because if I want to watch comedy I would watch a comedy show, besides fifth gear has a female presenter which is easy on the eyes,

    Top Gear UK. It's a good mix of humour and cars and no one else can copy that. (Top Gear Australia was the fattest fail)

    fifth gear just rub you up the wrong way as a bunch of know it alls. Like in the cheap 200 car segment, we decided to start our ideas in a pub, oh and of course we chose a crap car none of you would expect because we know more than you.

    Then they keep breaking the crap out of it because it sucks lol, its like watching that bunch of stereotype know it alls you have at kfc who keep getting pulled over for their 'sick' ideas.

    Top Gear all the way, don't get me wrong, Fifth Gear is alright, much better than anything put out by this country, not to mention they also have Vicki (i think half the reason I watch the show is to listen to her talk about cars, with her accent ), but all in all it still can't hold a candle against Top Gear.

    Sounds like a resounding win for Top Gear. I have to say I rather Top Gear as well. Just watched Fifth Gear and really, its a bit boring. Vicki Butler-Henderson is easy to look at though.

    Top Gear WTF...

    I tried watching some 5th Gear in between Top Gear seasons and it just didn't compare.

    Plus I tune out everytime I have ANY woman telling me something so I miss out on alot of information watching 5th Gear

    Top Gear, I find Fifth's format less fluid, and it's not as interesting to watch. I don't mind Tiff though.
