Had No Idea There Was A New Episode

[-]

It's a clip show 90 minutes each or so and about 5 minutes per episode of new material. Whilst making it clear that nobody (in particular Jeremy) wants to be there. But are by contractual obligation only.

Oh a clip show. I never liked clip shows. Rather than reminisce over clips, , I'd rather watch the whole eposode it was in.

[-]

FatNAngry1980@reddit

Fairly sure Andy Willman is in the old folks home in the background.

[-]

Boomingoverture@reddit

I really like it, but i wish they'd talk a bit more, offer some bts insight or something, because a lot of the clips have already been filed into those "Hammond, Clarkson and May x" videos on YouTube, so it often felt like watching one of those during the long stretches where the lads aren't talking.

[-]

Ok_Distance_4892@reddit

So basically you just want them to do a youtube podcast

[-]

Admirable_Site_8337@reddit

Great new bits setting up clips. New content of the three of them being silly is never a bad thing.

Beyond that it’s just clips from past things. To be fair…..I watch old clips on YouTube all the time, so it’s nice to see this with some original chatter.

And the sight gags on the nursing home have all been great.

It's atleast better than the other one episode of just May and Hammond. I just played it in the background and was nice to see the 3 back together I guess but it was just reminiscing. May seemed like he didn't want to be there but I guess he's always been like they letting Clarkson and Hammond take the limelight

[-]

Beartato4772@reddit

Hammond wants to get away from his divorce, Clarkson from the full time job he stupidly gave himself.

May does exactly what the hell he wants to do all the time. I'm not surprised he's less enthusiastic.

Thats the best gag in the whole thing.

[-]

madaday@reddit

I was hoping they'd have some bloopers/extras that weren't in the normal episodes 🫠

[-]

FarPrince@reddit

Mainly clips from old episodes, but a few bloopers/extras sprinkled in. They usually talk about what the montage is about before cutting away from the old folks home, so you can pretty easily skip the clips.

Ammonia lodge. Ouch.

Taeles@reddit

3rd episode enroute, this thursday

[-]

reditcyclist@reddit

Yeah it's not great. They obviously don't need the cash so I assume they were contractually obliged in some way?

[-]

sl0wjim@reddit

Ditto, gave it about 10 minutes but had to turn it off. Awful.

[-]

Suitable_Candle1518@reddit

A glorified clip show i am not interested in

[-]

TheAwesomeRan@reddit

Didn't need the clips. Id have rather watched the three of them talk nonsense.

[-]

TheDragonGuyYT@reddit

Damn its not available on the us site

[-]

Nvm im a dum dum lol

3 best of episodes to get Amazon off their back. 2 released so far

[-]

ProfessionalSea6268@reddit

I hadn’t seen anything advertising this until I stumbled across it last week. Last ditch attempt by Amazon to cash in before they introduce the new hosts who may or may not be a disaster in my view.

[-]

Gob_CL@reddit

My prediction is "utter garbage"

[-]

HaydenScramble@reddit

Is this even worth it or is it a circle jerk?

[-]

Lucajames2309@reddit

I didn’t mind it tbh, but I know other people think different

[-]

Rikuddo@reddit

I would've instead loved a 3 x 20 mins episodes of them just watching those clips and doing a commentary on it.

[-]

BabyishDuck@reddit (OP)

Is it basically highlights is it?

[-]

EfficientTitle9779@reddit

Yeah it’s a best of, they even address it lol

[-]

Lucajames2309@reddit

Yeah, and occasionally it’s the 3 of them talking in an old folks home for a bit

[-]

Echo-Azure@reddit

Is it on YouTube yet?

[-]

Lucajames2309@reddit

No — why would it be, none of amazons other stuff is in yt

[-]

nikhkin@reddit

They upload more clips to the official YouTube channel than are in this clip show.

[-]

ImpracticalJerker@reddit

Yes the clips featured are available on YouTube, you just won't get the commentary from the three talking in old people's home.

[-]

Racing_Fox@reddit

TGT in general was only just bearable

Can imagine this isn’t

[-]

Klichouse@reddit

It's crap.

There will always be a band of people that will watch anything Jeremy Clarkson though so some will like

[-]

ImpracticalJerker@reddit

I don't know what you expect here man, it's a best of show and it does what it says on the tin. I don't think it's fair to say it's crap seeing as it's not trying to trick you into thinking it's a new grand tour trip, if you want to watch a grand tour best of then you will enjoy watching it, if you expect anything else then you're going to think it's crap yes but only an idiot would expect anything else.

[-]

Klichouse@reddit

A best of of a relatively short lived show. It's not like they're recapping top gear from 2005. I'm not surprised there's an audience for them idly chatting mind, perhaps I'm just not the level of super fan others here are.

[-]

ztunelover@reddit

I know, I am one of those people.

[-]

nikhkin@reddit

You're not missing out on anything you can't get by watching random clips on YouTube for free.

[-]

chrizzleon@reddit

I don’t mind these episodes. But I’d love to see them do more stuff together. Will always miss the big globe trotting specials. And I understand them getting older and not feeling up to the challenge any more. But their chemistry was always so good and just seeing them set about pretty much anything and having a laugh doing it amazing. If they filmed so low key stuff of them going about little challenges, 30 minute shows of them doing stuff in the UK, I’d watch that. Doesn’t have to massive tasks, just little imaginative trials for them to bring their unique blend of characters too.

[-]

Coenzyme-A@reddit

They're doing what they want to do now. It's becoming a bit tiring to hear fans keep asking for more.

They've left behind an incredible trove of footage to rewatch, amongst their other new pursuits. There's no need to keep needling them with the "it would be nice if they just..."

[-]

FourCats44@reddit

People seem easy to forget they've been doing it over 20 years

[-]

chrizzleon@reddit

No one’s forgetting it. It’s just an expression of loving their work. No demands, no lack of appreciation for what they have done and no lack of understanding of their desires to do what suits them now.

[-]

FourCats44@reddit

What kind of expression of love is "I want them to do more"?

[-]

chrizzleon@reddit

One of admiration and a longing for their amazing work.

That it requires explanation is quite something.

[-]

JayBird1138@reddit

Give it a few years:

ChatGPT, make me ten new episodes of Grand Tour, and include white stig.
