    For me just about the same as the first two episodes. The only bright spot was the camping scene spitting shine on the fire (I can't resist acting like a juvenile).

    I enjoyed the challenge parts of last night's episode but not when the guys are in "studio". Not reassuring to think the banter was better than the first two episodes.

    Can somebody check it out online @ History.com and tell me if their video is all pixlated? Episode 1 was fine but 2 and 3 not so. Just curious if its my PC. Audio is fine.

    Not impressed with History.com so far

    I just checked it out. Not great resolution. In full screen mode it's very blocky (pixelated?) -- can't see much detail at all.
    -------------
    Watched a bit more. It's low resolution but not too bad unless there's movement on the screen -- the greater/faster the movement, the blockier it gets.

    It just ain't near the same as the Brits.

    It would have been good if you never seen the "Real Top Gear" I'll watch it anyway and I'm sure it will get better as the three guys blend more. Right now they seem stiff and not really sure how to insult each other properly.

    They had a 2011 Mustang Boss 302 on the last episode and never did run it around the track. The Stig must have been Christmas shopping in England or something.

    I guess it will be alright if you just don't try to compare it to the "Real Top Gear"

    Thanks for testing Steve. I'm not very impressed so far

    Okay, the FORD/Henessy Raptor was cool, so long as you muted Tanner's noise.... And The Stig did very well with it on the track.
