The media's targeting of this is rather petty if you ask me.
Did anyone really expect these new presenters ( people who probably never met each other before all this) to start with 13 years worth of chemistry and banter right from the off?
For what its worth, it wasn't a train wreck, not as good as the past, but also not as bad as it has been in the past (Sweeney Episode I'm looking at you.
).
If Evans dials it WAY back and the others get abit more freedom in what to say, they could actually make it decent, not exceptional by any means, but decent.
Put it like this, Top Gear USA was once in this position, barely any chemistry and plenty of people ripping on it and wanting it cancelled.
These days it's actually quite good, they found their formula and it's going quite well for them.
The only question is, Can New Top Gear survive long enough to do the same, especially with the old guard preparing The Grand Tour?
