I Tivo'ed the series and later burned it to DVD. I think Nathan Fillion is a hilarious actor (FireFly, Serenity, Slither...) and absolutely LOVED that show. I haven't hear much on it though. Wish they'd do a second season! Maybe after the new year? Here's to hoping!

Not a lot of American cars but its entertaining. Some of the the projects they take on are hilarious.
It is quite possibly the funniest program on TV without trying to be. Perhaps I'm a little biased as I'm British, but its one of the things I missed when I left the country. If you like fast cars, and just plain silliness and childish indulgence, then this is the show for you!

Now BitTorrent is my friend, so I can download them all the time!

I agree that was very funny, but the funniest episode HAS to be the Caravan Holiday one. I nearly fell off the chair watching it. They are complete idiots of the highest order, but I love it!

Caravan was great. I would have hated to be the people next door.
I also thought watching them try to drive the car with the cement floor (mobile cottage) and finished like a living room was pretty good too. Maybe they should have not waxed the floor and fastened the chairs down....

I think a new episode of Top Gear is on Monday night

Pinks All Out, better than pinks. Still has some lame wagering though. The cars are much better.

Yes, new episodes air Monday's at 8 followed by an encore of the previous week, in case you miss it.

You can also view classic clips on the BBC website. There are tabs along the top. Some of their antics can be found in the 'Mucking About' tab.

Brenda and I are both entered in to the 2008 Season Finale of "Pinks-All Out" which will be hosted at our home race track.
Brenda races our Pro Street S-10, I will be teaming up with my old racing Partner to drive his 1966 Mustang Shelby GT-350 clone drag car.
Brenda's brother races a 1970 Camaro as well, which I am his crew chief and tuner...

if anyone wants to see some media about these cars, just say the word...I have numerous pictures and videos of our truck, called "Peanut", as well as Brenda's brother Tommy's Camaro-his Camaro is a enderle-injected 472 on alky-this winter we are motor-plating the chassis, and punching the motor out for more cubes.
