    Jeremy Clarkson: US Viewers Don’t Get Top Gear

    "That's been canned," said Jeremy Clarkson speaking of Top Gear USA in this video. "[Americans] just don't understand a single word we're on about."

    Clarkson and his midget mate Richard Hammond were down under for Top Gear Live, which is sort of like Muppets On Ice, but with cars. We've already heard Top Gear USA was canceled, but it's interesting to hear the less-PC version of events.

    We do however think Clarkson is wrong on one key point: it's not Americans who "just don't get it, really" it's NBC. [via CarsGuide]
