    I'm on the fence about the change. On the one hand, I really enjoy their epic 'challenge' specials. On the other hand, a big part of the appeal of CH&M is the three of them bantering about car news with the audience, and their unusual/creative new car reviews.
    Maybe they'll still do some of that on Drivetribe, and not just do commercials like Hammond has been for the Ranger

    I just got it within the year. I’m sure when my renewal comes up, it’ll increase. Then I will hopefully have justification to drop it

    The new top gear with the new hosts is actually quite funny.

    I haven't watch Grand Tour in a while. It just doesn't do it for me.

    As for Top Gear.. I'll have to see what new hosts you are talking about.

    Edit: Chris Harris will be joined by late night entertainment host Paddy McGuinness and pro cricket player Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff for 2019.

    Never heard of Paddy or Andrew "Freddie"

    Finished Seaman yesterday, I thought it was pretty good. Lots of funny aspects, now it’s not anything close to the other GT stuff but still good for not seeing them in new stuff for a yearish

    That's where I'm at. The first season being fairly...uneven (bad)...didn't help, but it seems ever so slightly off.

    Maybe it's an access thing? Racing to download from Final Gear always added a bit of anticipation for me lol.
