Even though a LOT of people hate Clarkson, I see him like a grandfather -- someone I could simply pull a chair up next to and listen to the stories of life experienced... with access to so many cars, you know he has the stories. Sure he is delusional when it comes to reviewing certain cars (hates Porsche, loves anything British) but that's what makes him polarizing.

I quite like him as a reporter. The chemistry between him, Hamster and Captain Slow is simply hilarious and very organic. Hard to put three people together on a show and get such fluid entertainment.

The cinematography of the show is unlike anything else... I even got Kim to sit with me through a few episodes simply because the film was so gorgeous.

Loved the race, BTW. I shared this on my Facebook page yesterday, thanks for the link!
