Best. Television. Program. Ever.
If you don’t watch Top Gear, you should. It’s by far the funniest thing I’ve seen on TV in years. Here’s their absolutely hilarious north pole episode. Can a car make it to the north pole? The Top Gear crew races a Toyota pickup against a sled dog team to try to find out.
Many thanks to Jill and Tej for turning Stephanie and me on to this superb program!

Love this. Will have to start tivoing. We caught an episode on youtube when we were doing car research. Very funny. I didn’t realize we could pick it up regularly.

So when I said “on television” I guess what I really meant was “on television somewhere.” There was supposed to be a US version of Top Gear (with the same cast. I can’t imagine a version with an American cast. They’d put damn Seacrest on it), but last I read it was on hold because Jeremy Clarkson refused to live in the US while it was filming. So it’s on Youtube. BBC2 may sell DVD’s.
