Apart from self indulgent entertainment is there any other point to Top Gear. It provides nothing to the auto industry and tests vehicles most ordinary people will never own. Their football games wreck up to 10 cars to make little or no point and they are paid a fortune. Easy money.

The old Top Gear (pre-2002) was a useful car show where they would test drive normal cars (and some exotic stuff occasionally) and give consumer advice on things like which used cars are the most reliable, etc. Now it's all about million dollar supercars and blowing shit up. But it did begin as an informative car show.
Now it's basically like professional wrestling with cars. They even have a stage show now. It's getting ridiculous.

There was actually an episode recently where Hammond went to Mexico. Now I can see why he was so nervous about it.

They had to travel to the border. He could've done a fantastic run through Alaska where the closest border is Canada, but he decided to stick to the southwestern states.
