But their joke backfired after they were slammed by Muslims for mocking their religion.
Actually, I think it didn't backfire at all - it worked as intended. Go Clarkson!
I watched this episode last night, and while not among the best they've done, it was pretty good entertainment.

But the part about the nativity scene garners no attention. What a bunch whiners, these muslims. No wonder their countries suck!

On what network, can we in the good ol U.S. of A., watch the British verstion of “Top Gear”? All I have been able to find is the ‘Merican version.

Yep, the best show on in the USA comes via BBC/America.
If anybody is still in the dark about Top Gear, then find the episode where they made the run from the Amazon River to the Pacific.
LOL .... trust me. You’ll get a kick out of it.

One of the best automotive programs ever. These guys are hilarious. Apparently the dopes in Hollywood never saw an episode judging by the three losers and stupid stunts the American version is reduced to. The only thing I can think of that the Brits do better, car wise, than the US.

Add your comments to the Daily Mail article website. The Muzzy complainers need a good pounding and then some.
Try and find the episode where they tried trailer camping at a park. OMG.

From the article (emphasis mine):
Islamic extremist Anjem Choudary, said: 'The burka is a symbol of our religion and people should not make jokes about it in any way...
That's pretty cool. The Brits actually identified the guy as an 'islamic extremist'. You won't see THAT in the NYT!

James May dead pan straight man and anal retentiveness is hilarious. Clarkson, who gets on my nerves sometimes, said “some Americans think Obama is a blend of Jesus, Mother Theresa and Martin Luther King.” He is not a fan of Hussein.

Nothing to do with TG but a nice wee side note Jeremy Clarksons father in law was awarded the VC for his actions at Arnhem.

It's a political row. Islam is a political cult, not a religion.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
