Just when you thought things were finally OK with the new Top Gear, this latest piece of information comes in regarding the show's main presenter, Chris Evans. After a string of unfortunate incidents and not very flattering rumors, Evans has gone and really done it this time.
This guy certainly knows how to make people like him. In case you didn't get it, that was one hundred percent sarcasm. You can actually appreciate his short temper when you see him on the telly, but when you're in the audience present at the show's studio footage segments, you probably don't appreciate somebody yelling at you.
It makes you feel like you're back in school during the class of an ill-tempered teacher. The people who turned up to see the new episode of Top Gear being filmed were greeted by a very irascible Evans. The ginger presenter had previously made fun of Clarkson & Co for taking way too long to shoot these scenes, but on his first try, he easily managed to break the record by lingering four hours.
Chris Evans must have felt the public's pressure as he snapped at one point, launching into a tirade of advice for the audience that ended in a very 18-rated manner: “Don’t fold your arms, don’t wear black. Take it off – take everything off.
“Don’t fold your arms, don’t have your hands in your pockets. F***, f***, f***, f***, f***.
He also felt the people inside the studio were too quiet, not helping with the atmosphere. The Sun reports that Evans had a few suggestions on how to fix that as well: “Don’t be quiet. Talk among yourselves. Jesus Christ! Can you all hear me?” Some people suggest he was upset that nobody laughed at his jokes, but that's just mean. Besides, these people are used to Clarkson's sense of humor, so they might need a little time to adjust.
To make matters worse, co-host Matt LeBlanc breezed through his lines getting them flawlessly on the first try. To add insult to injury, Brad Pitt, the guest of the first episode, pulled out, so producers had to find some makeshift replacements. They managed to secure the presence of Gordon Ramsay (celebrity chef) and actor Jesse Eisenberg, who, with all due respect, isn't nearly as famous as the name initially planned.
To be honest, all this negative stuff about the new version of the world's most watched motor show is only making us even more curious about what we'll see on May 29. It'll certainly be different than what we've been used to - it remains to be seen if it's good-different or bad-different.
