Can't handle the test driver. Just an overall obnoxious character. Never once thought one of the one-liners was even remotely funny. It's too forced, I guess. No biggy but definitely not enjoying this.

I liked the silent Stig better too. Forced is the issue - he's just commenting to comment and it isn't really working. If he had some USEFUL comments, it might better. I don't mind their stupid segments if there is some actual car stuff in there but when the segments are just straight comedy it is sort of what is the point of the show? It becomes more how can we work a car into our dumb skit than it being about the cars.
