Yes love him. I think hes funny. But also James May is funny on top gear.
What if JC was covered in Marmite? :shock:
I must admit....i am warming to him.....my sons are big Top Gear fans....so when its on i usually watch it.....and i find some of the remarks he and the other two make.....hilarious..
Yep sat down at a friends one day and they announced they were putting his show on cos they always watch it yaaaaaawwwwwwnnnn!!!!!! I thought. Then I laughed all the way thru it! Great fun and the MCP part is alot of the comedy :giggle:
Love
Fire xx
I used to dislike him a lot - and my gf felt the same. But since watching top gear (the current series) I find myself laughing my head off at his quips and comments.
My gf is even warming to him too.
Love clarkson, says what he thinks and is funny to.
Top Gear is an entertainment programme and a good one. It has however left a gap in the market for a motoring show for the 99% who won't buying Astons and Zontas this year, will try not to crash the caravan, and who really would like to know if the new Yaris is better than the competition.
(I'm not saying there IS a new Yaris btw, it just came to mind).
Yep, Top Gear is funny, now. It went through a very dull patch a while back when it was pretending to be too serious - before the new line-up. It works cos the 3 presenters are so different but aren't affraid to take the piss out of each other for it and don't mind having the piss taken in return. Clarkeson is a MCP, if you scratch under the surface most men are to some extent, he's just a bit more honest about it than some, which is kind of endearing. I've always thought he was funny. My only gripe is about the green issues that he takes so lightly and the fact that most of us mere mortals will never be able to afford a lot of the cars they show - but I suppose at least we get to see them.

I think the reason we like Clarkson is because he is basic and down to earth and the British especially don't like intellectuals. He uses this basic tendency to trash any constructive thought because we dont like complications and really want some simple answers. He uses good comic timing and witicisms to trash everything like a bulldozer so that we can give in to our urges and enjoy being lunatics about cars etc. That in turn makes him feel better about himself and where it really gets clever he gets paid for being crap in a clever way.
Phew, what a rant!? Yes he's funny but he leaves a bad after taste.
Still, he likes my Citroen Berlingo so he can't be all bad can he?
