'Ambitious but rubbish' and 'How hard can it be' – you have heard them more than once and twice. And I'm not talking about whole season. Just one episode.
Well, 15th season just came and went as there was only six episodes. But despite being short it was rather good.
Yes, cocking and mocking about – but that's TopGear style. The one that we used to love but now seem start to hate.
There was decent moments as well as silly things to be done but I am here not to talk about the last season.
No. I want to talk about any other motoring show.
Yes, there's not a lot to talk about if to be honest. In other countries, so that's outside UK if to be accurate, you got regional show that don't make their way further than country's border. And usually it's a good thing as they aren't particularly interesting or ambitious.
But that's the thing – everything has to be ambitious and, usually, end up badly. If to sum all this up – it has to be like TopGear.
And one day I started thinking if it's even possible to create something better or equal to TopGear. And I'm not talking about same things that boys done already – am thinking about pioneering the car industry all over again. From the very beginning.
Sounds rather impossible. But maybe it's not really.
And I got few things in my head already. But, if would tell about them today – would have to kill you straight away.
The thing is – we need to think simple but with creative twist. Nothing 'over the top' or 'we got more money than you'. No, not at all.
There's new generation growing and they see car industry from completely different angle than we do. Because we are rather old and have old fashioned attitude to travelling.
And that's the thing that makes everything 'impossible'. We are just stuck with stereotypes that can't be changed.
But while TopGear is the best you can find – enjoy it. Because there's more good things to come in future!
