Top Gear is the Worst Show of All Time (RACISM Ahoy!)

Now I know a lot of people on this site are in love with Top Gear.  If you like cars and racing sims, you like this show I bet.  Seemed like when GT5 was said to include their track, lots of people busted a nut over it.  Now I for one was never a fan.  These guys always seemed like car snobs.  Making it seem like anything that wasn't european was beneath them.  And here we have proof that they don't just limit themselves to hating cars, they hate people of other races and countries.  Enjoy this nice clip. 
  

Grow up.

Yes, because the American version will carry over all the exact same opinions and conversations. 
Only now with more N-words!

Hah, that was a good episode.   
 
If it means anything, the American Version is way worse.

Hint: Watch more Top Gear before jumping to conclusions. Jokes. They do them.

The american version is the worst thing ever and I can't believe how ignorant and humourless a being like you are.

Top gear always make slightly controversial jokes. Like when Clarkson said that lorry drivers are murderers, or when Hammond returned from his horrific crash and they asked if he had gone mental because of it, or when they had to make an advert for a car and did a joke about the German invasion of Poland with the tagline "Berlin to Warsaw in only one tank". They're just jokes. They're not intended to be taken seriously. And they're funny.

I felt the need to quote all 3 posts. The American version is putrid, Top Gear is funny, OP needs to grow up. "

I'm half Mexican...don't take myself too seriously, but I think it's interesting that they probably wouldn't ever say "Imagine waking up and remembering you're Black" or "a Jew".

Tbh what they said about Mexicans is just a stereotype invented by American Media anyway. Plus they were obviously not being serious. They always make jokes to that calibre, just not always about Mexicans/any sort of race (except F1 LOL)

They got to get their stereotypes updated. We all know they're too busy stealing our jobs and doing drug runs.

That is pretty racist... But this does not make this show 'The worst show of all time' you are over reacting, but such is the Internet.

    So Top Gear fans, can't wait for the American version or what? "

That entire episode was one big joke about how Britain is the best, anyway.

" I'm half Mexican...don't take myself too seriously, but I think it's interesting that they probably wouldn't ever say "Imagine waking up and remembering you're Black" or "a Jew". "

oh well so much for no complaining lol

That is offensive.

Jeremy Clarkson owned a Ford GT for a while. Evidently anything other than European cars are, in fact, not beneath them.

They're not always the nicest guys, but usually they are joking. I didn't find that overly offensive and honestly, it's not like those guys claim to be good guys or totally PC. People can watch the show for the information and interviews and ignore the rest if they so choose, no?
 
Oh, and the American version is the worst piece of crap I've seen.

I can see why people could be offended by that. Probably wasn't the best material for them to bust out.

I'm a polar-bear-riding moose-eating snown*gger from the greater north, lemme tell you what I think about this.
 
It's alright. I've seen far worse on American television, I've seen even worse in highly popular movies.

Oh no, people are making fun of other people! WE SHOULD ALL FLIP THE FUCK OUT!

They're an equal opportunity offender dude. I ordered all the past seasons and that's par for the course with them. They've offended Germans, The French, Americans as a whole, South Americans (South America), Northern Englishmen, Middlands Englishmen, The Scots, their police, Russians, Albanians, Malaysians, Koreans, the Chinese, Catholics, the American army, people who drive Audi's, people who drive Volvo's, people who drive BMW's, Australians, environmentalists, and mostly each other. That's off the top of my head though

" Tbh what they said about Mexicans is just a stereotype invented by American Media anyway.  "

Isn't this program shown after the watershed over there? If it is, isn't it pretty much fair game?

That reminds me. I met Richard Hammond last sunday. He was a really nice guy and we had a short conversation for a few minutes.  
 
What people like the OP fail to realise is that they are mostly just joking. The more people get offended the more it inspires Clarkson and the others to say the stuff because they think people are to uptight about political correctness these days.
 

 These guys always seemed like car snobs.  Making it seem like anything that wasn't european was beneath them. 

This is where you are clearly ignorant. I remember them ripping into loads of cars made in Europe and even Britain. Hell, they make more fun of Britain then any country. Except maybe America.

That is beside the point. This thread is not about the automotive capabilities of America or any other nation. "

And our Government. "

I cant believe that anyone is taking this seriously. Its top gear, they're not exactly meaning everything they say. 
 
I remember when I watched it live, Clarkson's comments about the ambassador really did seem like he was egging him on and trying to provoke a reaction. But simply, if you for some baffling reason take this seriously and are 'offended', then pick up the damn remote and change the channel!

Don't forget, their brains and mouths were also made in America. Calling this "grasping at straws" would be an understatement. "

Isn't that what the segment was about though? "

@OP
I have only one thing to say and that is; you sir are an idiot.

There is a difference between what we see in something like Family guy and this kind of crap.  Family guy does funny stuff and it is totally not serious.  But for them to bust that kind of crap out, is really offensive, they are real people.  And this caught my attention because I am Mexican.  And if they do this to this extreme with other people, then that is a fucked up show.  For you guys to defend them and to say it is ok for them to say this stuff because it is a joke, is not cool.  you guys really disappoint me.  Telling me to grow up?  Racism like this is unacceptable.  I am sure you guys are the kind of people that thought it was ok for Michael Richards to go on his N-word rant because it was just a joke.  I am sure black people had to grow up then right?  Oh an i see more of the jokes they have said.  Yeah, this is one of the worst things they have said.  It is one thing to make fun of a country, to say that cars have certain crazy features because of where they are from, but to say that joke about "waking up and realizing you're mexican".  Thats fucked up.

What segment are you talking about? The one in the OP? There wasn't any mention of the Ford GT. "

lol cars.

We have all made these same sort of jokes for it. The only difference is that we don't have cameras on us and don't fall under the scrutiny of public opinion.
