In this case or they bring Jeremy back or the show will be so dead.

Apparently they might get a new guy to "handle" him and continue the show.
Lemme just become famous so I can do everything I want, right?

Jeremy Clarkson was on Top Gear since the beggining, so he'll like part of the program itself. But, for multiple times he had awful attitudes, mainly related with racism. I think if a person is not acting the best way, he's opening a door for somebody else more respectful to take his job. Those situations happened multiple times and a simple search on Google or Youtube will show you all the things I'm talking about.

So although Jeremy Clarkon is a fun person, overall a good reporter and possibly one of the elements that makes Top Gear UK so famous, his attitudes aren't really the best. I'll vote for "no" because I honestly really like him on the show, but I agree with kicking him off.
If he's a racist, that means he must be suspended for EVER.

Yep I agree with you, racism is something really serious. But at the same time, in this case Top Gear is over. I'm still pondering if it's a good decision to punish somebody for that, if it means destroying this show. The best answer would be yes, but it's Top Gear...

And on that bombshell...

James May changed his Twitter bio to say he is a "former TV presenter" so nope, looks like May and Hammond won't continue with this version of Top Gear either.

We can now say goodbye to this great show with the unique personality of its hosts. :( Now they should cancel the USA and the Australian versions as well, that haven't never been so great.
Soon I'll be able to watch the 20th season of the show.

I recently started rewatching from series 2, currently on series 14. I still think those three will end up back together for a new car programme on another channel. They probably had to do it regardless, but Massive implications are coming to the BBC for letting him go.

They could work with CarThrottle, I guess? If they did, that would be literally insane!

Overall I think he is simply childish for his actions that got him sacked from the BBC; He blamed the producer, for not telling the chef to stay to cook for him, I mean come on it was past the chef's working shift for god's sake. :roll:

As for Top Gear, don't worry I have found a replacement! :P

Well they had to get rid of him, they can't keep such person in their television. I guess there will be a new similar show but sadly many of features from Top Gear won't be ported to the new show because of copyright etc so I guess there might be no Stig anymore

Jeremy and the Producer sold TopGear to the BBC for huge money a few years ago, so the Stig may stay on the show.
