That would be the death of BBC2 for me. They have had so many brilliant shows nicked from them (The Apprentice, Have I Got News For You, Who Do You Think You Are to name just a few).
I can not see the point of it to be honest. Surely the same amount of viewers will tune in whether it is on ONE or TWO-what difference does it make?
Wouldn't the BBC be better off spreading programmes between BBC1 and 2 to have two strong channels rather than one?
It'sa ok
Hmm, the idea for an American Top Gear does seem to be a strange one; particularly, as mentioned, there are UK editions already broadcast on BBC World.
And I can't imagine Clarkson embracing the American people!
What they would probably do is do a spin off of TG .
On Channel 4 their is a programme called Scrapheap Challenge. C4 decided to flog the idea to the American, States United land and they came up with Junkyard Wars, which is the exact same format but the presenters have changed.
I hope this doesn't happen but if it did i think they would have to change the presenters for it. Also it might be quite good, becuase while TG is off air in the UK. They could show the unseen American version here, and then we could all complain on here on how bad it is!

Moving
TG
to BBC1 would IMO be the death of BBC2, and that's been said before (sorry to whoever I subconsciously stole that line from). And as for the US version, a cut-down and re-edited version of
TG
already goes out on BBC World.
