Anybody catch the Top Gear Patagonia Special?
Definitely the best "road trip" show in a loooong time.
Patagonia Special Teaser | Videos | Top Gear | BBC America
Generally funny, less overproduced, more piss-taking by the lads (my vote for funniest dumb joke: Hammond screwing his Mach-1; later mimicked by Jezza and May to soft music
), less absurd "eye roll" invoking sight gags (so far), and three very cool V8's (Mach-1 Mustang, 928 Porsche, and Lotus Esprit).
Also, incredibly scenic, even for Top Gear -- Argentina and Chile, over wobbly bridges, swamps, rocks, past waterfalls and through the Andes.
Part 1 aired yesterday; part 2 will be next Monday.
