2016–2024 · Based on 6 seasons ·
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May travel around the world in fast cars. They race, repair broken vehicles, and complete silly challenges in difficult places. Their friendship drives the show as much as the cars do. The show uses a loud, rude, and playful style as the three men try to annoy each other. The show focuses on cars, travel, danger, competition, and friendship. The hosts sometimes make crude jokes about groups, social rules, and political correctness. The jokes support an old fashioned comedy style instead of a woke message. The later specials become longer farewell adventures, and the final episode centers on the trio’s friendship and shared history.
