Amazon's Grand Tour, a reboot of the BBC's hit show Top Gear, has been an unmitigated success with fans with its first episode alone garnering "millions" of views. It's also be a hit with pirates who, instead of paying the annual $100 fee for Amazon Prime, have downloaded the first three episodes at unprecedented rates.

According to data from industry analyst Muso, and published by the Daily Mail on Sunday, pirates illicitly downloaded the first episode 9.7 million times, the second episode 6.4 million times and the third 4.6 million times. A lion's share of the downloads (13.7 percent of the total) originated in Britain. Muso figures that Amazon lost £3.2 million on the first episode alone. "It is the most illegally downloaded program ever," Chris Elkins, Muso chief commercial officer, told The Guardian. "It is off the scale in terms of volume. It has overtaken every big show, including Game Of Thrones, for the totals across different platforms."

Interestingly, while Amazon has seen its subscriber base grow by more than 19 million this year -- to a total of 63 million worldwide...

I saw the first episode it was pretty good, still didn't feel the same as there old one, but you will only feel like that if you was a die hard fan of the old show
I'm watching the first ep now, feels the same to me. It doesn't have that dark filter when they racing around and shyt from what I remember

its great! I just watched the 3rd episode and Clarkson and May get a new Aston Martin and Rolls Royce for a "quiet" drive around Tuscany, but then Hammond drives up in a Dodge Hellcat complete with the Dukes of Hazzard horn:russ:
Hammond also has a truck full with replacement tires for the Hellcat. He spends the whole episode tormenting the other 2 while they try to dump him:mjlol:
