[Toronto]

but what channel would it be on, i don't get bbc with my cable?

[zevolv]

Finally there is a hint of hope.

[GT-R_R34]

BBC america I think is just Cable or Satille. i might be wrong but thanks for the link

[crasherror]

I voted for it. i will keep my fingers crossed.

[daniel]

top gear....AWESOME!!!

[gottacatchup]

what channel is BBC america?

[zevolv]

It depends on were you live and what cable/satelite provider you have

[gottacatchup]

well how could i figure it out if i know my cable provider?

[zr2man99]

Yes! I hope they are it. I get BBC America, I have the Dish Network satellite. That would be awesome if I could watch top gear.

[stradale]

I filled it in for you guys as well. :D

[fritzintn]

I did my part. :)

[nchs09]

ditto... i dont get bbc america, i got comcast

[altezza]

i've sent my request~

[zevolv]

Actually Comcast Digital cable has BBC America because that's what we have and for gottacatchup, there should be a TVguide channel; to tell you or if you have digital the large menu would tell you, if not the providers website should have a listing for you.

[FerrariKiller]

I did the deal. However, I'm kind of over loaded with car stuff as it is, I may never leave the house at all as a result. I have a couple complete TG episodes and they are awesome.

[mhn3773]

thanks and i just put top gear down myself =-)

[budagboy2]

wow that would be aswome if they had top gear, i voted to have it

[NSXPERT]

I voted. I don't get bbc now but if top gear becomes avaliable, I'll find a way to get it.

[novass]

i voted. i hope it works!

[Overmind]

[DMbaseball1604]

[Zonda11]

I don't get BBC but i'll still help u guys out.

[Nemisis8u]

Voted top gear :) Hopefully it will come, keeping my fingers crossed

[CMonakar]

I'll throw the link up a couple other forums.

[sentra_dude]

Great, I voted, and I will tell everyone I know to vote for Top Gear. :mrgreen:

[DeMoN]

[crasherror]

i hope they give us the full hour. not 30 mins.

[killer66]

FINALLY!!!!! It comes to America.. :D

[Sachmo12345]

i voted i think i have bbc somewhere on cable

[danroz]

Id rather have Fifth gear but I guess thats me being greedy

[snacky]

coloradosilver,

I put in my 2 cents/quid to get that show over this side of the pond,

much thanks

[Maverick7K]

We have a bunch of mediocre car review programs (in the US) and Top Gear and 5th Gear are definitely some of the ones that I wish we had.

[FoxFour]

I wish my cable provider would have this channel in my area. It has to be a lot better than that 'Bravo' channel. And I see that they have 'Keeping Up Appearances'. Saturday nights I watch that and some other British sit-coms on ETV. Funny shows. Love that British humor!

[geekdiggy]

US's car programs suck. the only remotely good channel is SPEED channel and 90% of those shows suck stinky ass. i have digital cable and don't even catch BBC so this poll really won't work for me, but i voted anyway for the good of my fellow americans :D

[Homans]

I agree. I think that with such a high proporition of our country being interested with cars, there should be some half-decent shows being thrown up. And if you say Car and Driver TV is a good show, you dont deserve to have an opinion in the first place.

[HeilSvenska]

Aha...the americans need Top Gear to knock them out from buying damned Toyotas. I went to the site and put on my request.

And also i wrote a petition to bring Top Gear to the States for my English project.

[itsthepham]

awesome, I just dropped them a nifty line. I soooooooooooo hope they bring Top Gear over here. Until then...i'll have to get a TIVO and record those shows...or...just hook it up to my computer and record. :P

[intence]

Cool. I want top gear in the US

[Sachmo12345]

everyone vote for it to come to the US

[McLarenF1God]

I don't believe they show Top Gear on BBC in america anyways. And we all should fill this out, thread should be a sticky. I love that show and it's narrators/hosts.

[mhn3773]

no they dont show it on te BBC american hence the thread telling people to ask for it to come to america =)

im just givin u shit

i was kinda pissed when i figured out that the BBC i was getting was not the REAL BBC it was some americanized thing..

i thought when it said BBC it was all the same so i musta spent 2 weeks trying to figure out when top gear was on lol

[tigerx]

does taht include canaduh wit it? i hope it does :|

[mhn3773]

i dont know if it would include canada..u should mabey look around the site and see if theres either another page for canada or something that says what areas would be affected

[veteq]

In Canada, you can watch it on Bell Express View, they carry BBC2

[nthfinity]

awsome, thanks coloradosilver!!!
ive been a fan of top gear since i accidentally stumbled on it on a europe vacation; hope to see it stateside to teach our editors how to be enthusiastic about the cars we love!

[SamuraiGti]

Thank god in here we've got Top Gear =)

portuguese programs about cars really sucks! i wanted to "record" one to show you guys how it sucks, but i dunno how to do it =\

I hope that bbc goes to us, it's really good, particularly top gear =)

[Domyalex]

Yeah, *best* car show I have ever seen!
Too bad Tiff isn't around aymore lately.... does anybody know what happened???

[black_magician]

I don't have BBC america, but I voted anyway. :)
