The movie Deliverance came to mind while watching that.

I love the comment about the good ole boys in the pick up truck being proof that people have mated with vegetables

OMG i forgot that there are places like tha in the US. It's like zones. Do stupid stuff in the chineze territory and you get wacked, in the colored bro territory and you get wacked especially if you're a white boy....in the redneck teritory you get scalped along with your right of freedom of speech. LOL That's just insane.

Good for them. Although I am a participant in viewing these items it is still against the law. It is taking money out of the pockets who invested time and money into the show.

It was a funny episode, but a little unfair to our American friends. I'm sure that you would get a similar reception if you drove into many towns in the UK with ' man-love' & 'I love Tony Blair' ( in place of Hilary Clinton for president! ) daubed on your car. I doubt if American viewers will get to see it on BBC America ( would be corporate suicide to show it!! ).

How exactly am I taking money out of the Beeb's pocket if I watch part of Top Gear on Youtube? The quality on Youtube is so rubbish I will want to watch it on tv if it ever airs here anyway. If anything it's free publicity. In the UK it's on public tv anyway so I'm not missing any advertising being fed to me.
