Clarkson Suspended from BBC and no top gear this week!!

[c1973]

Or people who watch it once in a while (not always by choice) and find it the same each week and an outdated formula

See what I did there?

 

[Pin-seeker]

It's people complaining about something they don't watch anyway

Ok Phillip,I stopped watching because it was the same EVERY Sunday,once Jeremy as had his hand slapped & it returns I'll give it another go & report back:thup:
PS: don't take it personal if some of us don't enjoy the same a TV as you,it's nothing personal :thup:

Most people do watch it though Phil because as others have said, it's impossible to escape the thing! In my case, I fall firmly into the "found it funny several years ago, now find it boring/annoying/cringeworthy" camp. I still see it though, far more frequently than I would want to, because my boys love it. They're teenagers though, and that about sums up the current output. It appeals to teenagers and the lowest common denominator.

As for Clarkson, he's a racist bigot and the sooner he's off our TV screens the better. And he's also nowhere near as talented, funny, or important as he thinks he is.

So you find it all that yet you still chose to watch it ?!

Why watch something you find so bad ? Are you forced to watch it

Nope, no complaints, it's people commenting about a programme they used to love but feel has lost its way. And someone picking an argument with them for no apparent reason.

You don't have teenagers, do you?

I buy them TVs but they still want to watch their crap downstairs because that's the best screen in the house!

Ditto, when I channel surf we give it a fee minutes but come to the same conclusion as many others on here, and as such were happier to watch a repeat of something else.

Nope,he watches is because his teenage sons watch it.

Your teenage sons watch fireman Sam?

It's the same as my wife - she wants to watch the stuff I find rubbish on the main telly - so i pop off and watch something else on the iPad etc - I don't sit there and watch something I don't like though week in week out.

 

[Fish]

Your teenage sons watch fireman Sam?

I do along with Postman Pat and I don't have kids

 

[c1973]

I do along with Postman Pat and I don't have kids

I have been known to watch Scooby Doo on occasion.

So no one has complained about Top Gear ?

Not picking an argument - just trying to understand people complaining about something they don't watch or dont have an opinion on or don't care about - people offering an opinion on a program they no longer watch - just seems strange.

 

[tsped83]

Phil, you could walk through walls.

Obviously you don't have children. It's nice to spend time with them regardless of what they're doing.

I'm sorry, do you want us all to explain this AGAIN?

Scooby Doo is too predictable, they always uncover the baddie and never lose.

 

[Pin-seeker]

Pahahaha my son is 7

We could,but we shouldn't have to.

Yep. They need to freshen things up, it's the same cliched guy in a monster mask nonsense every week! Should have been dropped from the schedule years ago.
