Seems theyre getting lazy and dont realize that everyone can see the scripted gags from a mile away. The only parts where i was entertained was when poo poo actually could have gone wrong, like when the banner fell out of the train and they freaked out, or driving at night. Maybe they all feel like theyre getting too old for this poo poo, but i think without a certain element of suffering like in the south america or vietnam specials you have specials like this where they have waiting-in-line be a 10 minute gag

Make the journey itself the challenge - get a crap, broken, unsuitable car thousands of miles through an unfamiliar country. I thought the same thing.. $7k pounds buys you a nice condition car with good reliability and doesnt make for exciting anything. Although my memory was wrong and i though they bought cars for cheap in britain for the bolivia episode but turns out i was wrong

Seemed like the flames lasted a long loving time on the track from the lambo. Is that the lambo burning off excess fuel?

The guy tens of millions of views on youtube, and is one of the best automotive journalists to date, let alone compared to his co-stars, yet he isnt worth showing i guess Also was it just me or were there no humorous bits there.. besides matt leblanc sneezing there wasnt even any physical gags to keep it going (someone intentionally bumping into another car or falling on their rear end) or any of that.

Is it just me or has there not been any good music in the grand tour? Its either boring or actually really bad. I mean i know that the BBC had an awesome almost unlimited music license but I feel like amazon has dropped the ball here and they need to license some more obscure movie soundtrack stuff. Theres like a gross amount of butt rock harmonica that seems to be making its way into otherwise decent footage..

Does anyone else think the music is really boring or just plain bad? Episode 6 had faint hints of good music but most of the time its just really BAD. I understand bbc had an awesome license so music didnt really cost top gear anything but amazon needs to work on licensing film soundtracks again..
