TopGear On YouTube


A few nights ago, I spent the evening browsing videos on youtube. Upon looking through countless numbers of clips, I came upon something that really caught my eye. I had come across a good number of clips from the BBC show "TopGear". For anyone who doesn't know about this program, it's an entertaining show about cars that can be both entertaining and educational as well. Just from watching a few minutes of any given episode, you'll learn a few facts about the latest automobiles and vehicles. The three presenters of the show, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May are very entertaining. Whether they're testing out a new car or bulding some kind of contraption only to destroy it, they've always got something in store for the audience. Now what i do not like about the show is the simple fact that it is not regularly broadcast in the United States. It is on the BBC American channel once in a while, but it's usually only reruns. I've found that Youtube has become an excellent site for those individuals who love to watch the show. Users who are privlaged to watch the show live are able to record it and post it on the site, for other fans around the world to watch.
