    i thought the third installment was the best of the season thus far.

    still well short of their best, but enough for me to keep watching

    what was disappointing? That it wasnt the same as the old TG? They have had to completely reinvent themselves and the show and there are some things they still cant do legally

    That the one.
    I understand the restrictions they have but the new show just doesn't do it for me.

    Interesting interview there. I suspected that they had used the same camera people, but taking the majority of the crew! Cool.
    Also Mike "the american" seems to hint at him having a bigger input further down the track.

    Shame about the intro to #5 showing that 3-wheeled tilty bike/car thing, but then not having it in the episode.

    A good show it was too.
