If we speak about TV shows related to automobiles, Top Gear is surely a veteran. It began decades back in 1977, when it first aired on BBC and it has carried on since then, like eternal sunrise. Beginning as a conventional motoring show, it has evolved into a diverse TV show involving humor, celebrities, competitions, reviews and is still expanding.
The credit definitely goes to the presenters associated with the show. They have always come up with something unique. Jeremy Clarkson, who has been associated with the show as a presenter, since its early days, continues to mesmerize the audiences with his quick witted humor and knowledge of motor technology. Other presenters, like Richard Hammond and James May have added their own charm to the show.
Beginning as a pure motoring magazine show, Top Gear has continuously embedded new features, to retain and increase its audience base. Its immense popularity led to the show being adopted by various networks in different countries across the globe. The original version of the show was cancelled in 2001, when the ratings gave down drastically after Jeremy stopped presenting the show. However, the show was again revived in 2002 and has been a sensation since then.
An example of how much the audiences trust the views presented on the show is that several of my friends’ purchased their automobiles based on the reviews of the show. And frankly speaking, none of them have any reason to regret as the vehicles are performing as expected. Anyone looking to buy a new vehicle can certainly view this show as a great guide.
How many shows can we think of that are always as exiting and a treat to watch. The production house of Top Gear really deserves a great appreciation for not only keeping a veteran show on its feet but also keeping it refreshing and a favorite with the audiences. It’s certainly a show that matches up to international standards. That is why it has such a strong hold on its viewers.
So all you motor geeks, out there! In case you are on look out of heaven, there is no heaven like Top Gear. It’s definitely a destination for all those die hard fans of world’s greatest automobiles.
