    After the actors strike there is a new culture to make acting safer. The vehicle crash that happened in Top Gear had an impact in this. I am not sure how Top Gear ratings are after the original cast members left, if its low, it might just get cancelled.

    I suppose the popularity of the show is also declining due to the current climate about cars.

    Cars popularity are dying. Petrolheads are not as legion.

    Cars are seen as nuisance and they truthfully are a nuisance in our cities with their noise and chemical pollution while taking too much of space.

    It makes sense that Top Gear is cancelled while the end of an era is happening.

    I liked the trio of Chris, Paddy, and Freddie. While I know it wasn’t as successful as the original trio, I think the show ending has much more to do with Freddie’s (and to a degree Hammond’s) crashes than it not being to the level of Clarkson and gang, which is a shame.

    It’s a shame. I will admit I loved the original trio more but I have a soft spot for Harris as a car reviewer because he’s one of the best around.

    One of my favorite reviews of his is his long term ownership review of his GT3 Touring.
