The Grand Tour - Series 1 - Episode 2 - Operation Desert Stumble.

Here we are once again with another review of The Grand Tour. That is right , here we go with episode 2 this time from Johannesburg , South Africa . The boys are back with a new episode and this time they bring back more bang for your buck. No really, this time there are actually big bangs in this show.

  The boys have decided to try and their hand at becoming special forces soldiers. that’s right, they try their hand at a course that the big boys use to train and become the best of the best. Whether or not they can do it is totally your decision. I would say this segment is right up there with the segment they did on Top Gear where they went across Alabama and almost got killed. Very funny and fun.

 

   Of course we do get down to the nitty gritty and there are  awesome car segments as well.

  

   Now, it has been in the news that the BBC did not like The Grand Tour... gee I wonder why ? Maybe cause it is the show that they wish Top Gear could be ? Despite that , the reviews of the show have been amazing and it has broken all viewing records on Amazon. Which it should because it not just a car show or a comedy show. It is both and the chemistry between the boys not only makes us laugh but makes us feel like one of the guys who is hanging around some old friends. So after 2 episodes is the Grand Tour still worth watching ? Yes .... Yes it is folks.

And on that bombshell.... see you next week with a new review.

The Grand Tour - Series 1 - Episode 1 - The Holy Trinity :: A Review

   If history has taught us anything it is that you can’t keep a good man down... or in this case a group of men and their cars. That’s right folks , after a 22 month absence from television the boys are back. James May. Jeremy Clarkson and Richard “ The Hamster” Hammond have returned to doing what they love best, driving cars and drving each other insane and nuts.

   No longer on the BBC or BBC America , the boys have gone to the wild, wild west now known as the internet or more importantly Amazon Prime streaming video. The 1st episode which was set to debut on Friday 18 November has been released early in all it’s glory and for all of us to watch with amazement and awe. Amazon will release each episode on Fridays for the next 12 weeks. That’s right folks uncensored and no... that’s right NO commercial interruptions . Instead of a studio , the boys will be traveling around the world not only driving cars but also doing the show in a tent from different places from around the world, which means the audiences will be different every time.

   The Grand Tour is basically what Top Gear could have been but much better. What The Grand Tour shows us is that Clarkson, Hammond and May are an entity of people who bring not only humor but the latest up to date info on cars but show us all that friendship is the foundation of the show. 

Episode 1 came from America and it was done just right and Episode 2 is suppose to be coming via Johannesburg , South Africa.... what the boys have in store for us in the next 12 weeks is beyond me but I do know that whatever they bring will be full of cars and laughs. I look forward to episode 2 and beyond. All I can say is welcome back boys..... welcome back.
