    I see that BBC America has now relegated Top Gear to an early evening/late afternoon time slot, with no new episodes. Does anyone know what's going on with this?

    Jack.

    BBC America is the WORST way to watch Top Gear. The episodes are edited for time and content, and the original music is changed (due to the unique way the BBC is allowed to use music for free).

    Try this site instead.

    You can watch when you want and the latest episodes are usually available there within 24 hours of airing in the UK.

    Ferrari folks will want to check out the latest episode, Season 12-Episode 5... it features a race between a Daytona GTB and a new fangled speedboat, along the French Riviera...

    Just to clarify, the link to the episode can usually be found within an hour of the end of the show in the UK.

    That site is awesome! I spent all of yesterday at work catching up on season 12. I don't think I'll get much work done over the next 11 days :)
