Been a known fact for a while now.

Or do you still wait and get the delayed 40min long commercially interrupted episodes? In which case yeah, I been a season or more ahead for a long time.

 

No I didnt know.........just got Dishnet few weeks ago. So much for that.

 

Yea this makes me upset. They advertise a new season premier.. which I have already seen... Then follow it up by the worst episode ever.. the Limos..

 

its new to us! i'm just glad it's being shown in the states.

 

The Best driving is one of the best ones (I think) as far as the rest of the season just a hint: heres some keywords.. Africa, CaparaT1, MG... Seasons 8 and older have been far better... A bit disappointed, but hopefully they can make it up in the summer, that is if they come back.

Hopefully its just rumors

 

You can get torrents of the British BBC current season at www.finalgear.com.

They post shows almost as soon as they are done airing. Also has the Fifth Gear shows available.

 

5th gear is lame.. Tiff needs to stop trying to imitate TG... His act doesnt work

 

Dish network is listing the season premiere as next week. Is this the one you are referring to? When is Top Gear's "season" anyway? Summer time?

Where can we find them on the net in their full version?

 

www.finalgear.com has all of the episodes available as torrent downloads. Very easy to do. Just get a program called uTorrent (free) then download the shows. They will be in a video format. All you need to do is then is watch it!

Let me know if you need any help getting these

 

Firth gear essentially gave birth to the current incarnation of Top Gear

from Wiki

Fifth Gear first aired in 2002 as a replacement to the original incarnation of the BBC show Top Gear (as opposed to the current format name, however the BBC refused. Several of ), which was cancelled in 2001 due to low ratings. Five originally wanted to carry on using the Top GearTop Gear's ex-presenters, including Quentin Willson, Tiff Needell and Vicki Butler-Henderson were hired by Five to present Fifth Gear. After the completion of Fifth Gear's first series, the BBC relaunched Top Gear in a new hour-long format presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and Jason Dawe (replaced after the first season by current presenter James May).


The problem is that the presenters are really lacking the chemistry that current Top Gear has and the format is somewhat less appealing.

 

I still think Tiff is the best driver, and probably gives the best real (not just meant to be clever) feedback about a car, among them

Poor Hamster is not doing so well it seems, I feel bad for the guy:

Thats horrible... I am speechless...

 

I think this is the better way to get the last season, so you should look carefully some episodes are desguised with names as "fast cars" or so, so spend some minutes and get a good reward.

Fortunately i was able to watch every episode just the day after it was shown in Britain, sadly BBC erased the videos so quickly I couldn't watch them again two or three hours later.

My external HD has every episode of Tog Gear and 5th Gear on it thanks to finalgear.com. I'm currently watching the new season of 5th gear only to get me through till Top Gear premiers this summer.

 

I get all my episodes from racingflix.com

 

I don't see any episodes listed there.........

 

has anyone had any success downloading torrents on a mac?

 

Here is a link to some info on Mac torrent programs

 

I use Transmission on my Macs and have had no problems.

 

I use BitTorrent for my mac. It works great except for the fact that I am totally addicted to downloading movies now. So what channel exactly is top gear on in the U.S.?

 

BBC america carries an edited version of last seasons shows.

 

With my Dish service it's on BBC America once a week.

Even though what they are showing is last summer's season, it's still new to me. I don't mind it being behind a season.

I'm not a torrent fan and don't like the way their software works. I'll stick to the chopped up BBC America version.

 

What about the torrent proggy's don't you like?

Been using one for years now with no problems. Only way I can get my racing fix. I can get the WRC races, WTCC, BTCC and anything else that looks good.
