Here, we've got Adam Carolla (again - he and Tanner Faust were part of a failed first attempt at Top Gear USA back in '08), who is a funny comedian but not a show host. Athlete John Salley co-hosts and has nothing to say. Wall Street Journal automotive columnist Dan Neil, drives with his pinky out and couldn't be less appealing (but nonetheless comes across as the most knowledgeable). Matt Farah is the only appealing personality and the entire show could have easily revolved around only him. No need for the other three. He doesn't have a lot to say, either, and there's not much of his character that comes through, good or bad.
Maybe they tried to cram too much into one show instead of concentrating on quality over quantity.
Hopefully, it will get better. The pilot was awful.
