Top Gear - Grand Tour was the Best Show Ever! #OneForTheRoad

This is my reaction to finding out that The Grand Tour aka real Top Gear, was coming to an end. I have been watching this show for nearly twenty years and it has been my favorite TV show of all time. I wrote the following on twitter:

I don’t get overly sad too often but I was extremely upset to see the final #TopGear #GrandTour episode last evening. Have been through a lot over the years, two divorces and many tough days where I was alone on business trips far from home. Times where I have had to bury a friend, and other times where I have to reflect on friends I have lost touch with. The one thing I could always count on to distract me and cheer me up was Top Gear UK with Mr. James May, Jeremy Clarkson and RichardHammond.

Though they have no idea who I am of course, I would put on their show and feel like I was hanging out with them in a way. The friendship between the three spread through the screen and made it feel like we were all apart of it. To see it come to an end, feels like I am losing three friends who I could always count on. Even worse it’s because of age, I am turning 40 this year and I have been watching this show for 20 something years, more than half my life I enjoyed many re-runs, but always the thought of a new adventure awaiting. Thank you to the entire Top Gear and Grand Tour crew and obviously James, Jeremy and Richard. You all made the best show I have ever seen and likely will ever see. Thanks for all the laughs and for all the times I needed to watch some Top Gear because I just needed to. Cheers and may your anchor ever be tight.
