I don't think they are looking to build a new comedy show, or a battle of the jokesters. Seinfeld would have to loose the what's-that-about approach.<br><br>Individually, Jezza, Hamster and the Captain are not all that funny. It's the chemistry.  Hamster is the straight-man, Jazza, the antagonist and Cpt the anal-retentive.<br><br>Arguably, none of the Brits are "car guys", certainly not as knowledgeable as Leno. <br><br>Personally I would kill to see Ron Fellows as the Stig, eh! Maybe Boris Said.<br><br>Wink-and-nod to some low end Opel-come-Chevy-Liana would be fun to see. <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bert]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 23rd 2008 9:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Adam Carolla's audition drive for Top Gear (not really)]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/23/adam-carollas-audition-drive-for-top-gear-not-really/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/23/adam-carollas-audition-drive-for-top-gear-not-really/</guid><description><![CDATA[Top Gear's review of the UK version of the Pontiac G8.<br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qn7Z-iLa8h0" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qn7Z-iLa8h0</a><br><br>With Clarkson at the wheel.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TriShield]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 23rd 2008 9:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Adam Carolla's audition drive for Top Gear (not really)]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/23/adam-carollas-audition-drive-for-top-gear-not-really/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/23/adam-carollas-audition-drive-for-top-gear-not-really/</guid><description><![CDATA[""WHY WOULD YOU PRODUCE A PROGRAM THAT HAS NOT WIT OR FUTURE???
