THOMAS AND JAMES FROM THROTTLE HOUSE. You obviously don't watch YouTube.

Is this Thomas or James from Throttle House?

No version of "replacing" the boys will work. If Amazon wants a car related show, then pick a new name. Trying to replicate what Clarkson, Wilman, Hammond, and May created is guaranteed to fail.

No

Also, what is your reasoning for why not?

Because they shouldn’t revive the grand tour for some unknown people, if they’re any good then start their own show, not jump into an already popular show that is now finished that 3 popular successful people made it what it was. Leave their legacy alone

Thomas and James are not unknown people to the car community.

Compared to clarkson Hammond and may they are! And Considering the majority of the comments in this post don’t even know who they are they’re not that “known”. And even if they are somewhat known that’s still no reason to ride on the coattails of the grand tour. They can do their own thing and be popular. Why bother having them fill the already massive hole left by the trio we all love by reviving it with people the majority of the trios fan base has no clue about.

I take back what I said about them replacing the grand tour. It would be difficult to do that. But the amount of people saying "who" shows that they don't know what I'm talking about. Thomas and James have a great personality in their show and I guess what I'm really trying to say is that I'm surprised they don't already have a TV show instead of just a YouTube channel. Their production quality is very high and they both work great together. They do very high quality car reviews.

It’s a lot easier to do a YouTube channel than a tv show, having a tv show requires a network and them taking a chance on it taking off and making money for the network. At least on a YouTube channel it’s a lot smaller and easier to do on their own merit etc. I’m sure they have decent content but the trio has been doing this for many many years and became insanely popular, that’s why we love the show, For the boys. They are legends Maybe one day Thomas and James can achieve that can of audience but it would be an insult to the boys to do it through the grand tour.

Not that hot. They have a very production quality.

I don’t know who those people are, but I’m gonna have to agree with others and say no. Sometimes great things just have to come to an end.
