Jeremy Clarkson's new show on Amazon Prime | Clarkson's farm

Just finished watching Jeremy Clarkson's new show on amazon prime. It is surprisingly entertaining and refreshing, with the usual Clarkson’s humorous narrative and references to “the grand tour”.

Rating 4.5/5.

Re: The TV / Streaming shows thread (no spoilers please)

Watched Clarkson's farm on Amazon Prime videos. It's way beyond my expectations ! Jeremy's humane and gentler side is a pleasant surprise. I would rate it 5/5. This seems to be a complete genre in television, really can't script this one.

Re: Jeremy Clarkson's new show on Amazon Prime | Clarkson's farm

Richard Hammond did "BIG". James May went to Japan and Jeremy Clarkson went to a farm. Its like the Fab four starting their solo careers after The Beatles wound up. Even though it did produce some good music its just not the same as when they were together.

Re: Jeremy Clarkson's new show on Amazon Prime | Clarkson's farm

I liked this show better than last episode the The Grand Tour. In fact we[even missus liked it] binge watched it on Sunday. Of course had to fast forward the graphic encounters with sheep! lol!!

Show had some great views, narration. And looks like plight of farmers is pretty much same across the world.

Overall liked it better than the last independent shows of Hammond and May which I couldn't sit through and watch completely.

Very well planned series this was. While it was entertainment it also served as a good look at farming and everything involved with it.

Loved it.

4/5

Re: Jeremy Clarkson's new show on Amazon Prime | Clarkson's farm

Excellent show - couldn't have asked for more from a farming based show. 4.5/5 from my end. Half a point docked for some graphics scenes involving sheep.

Re: Jeremy Clarkson's new show on Amazon Prime | Clarkson's farm

Excellent show, this really shows the plight of farmers, the challenges, perils etc.
Only issue is that, you can't watch with kids.

Gives a warning to people wanting to own their farm that farming is expensive and also you need to wear an allrounder hat as a farmer. Mechanic one day, driver another, Vet on the third day and a father on the kids PTA meeting day.

Re: Jeremy Clarkson's new show on Amazon Prime | Clarkson's farm

Just finished watching, and saw this thread. A good watch - learnt a thing or two about how different farming is in the UK compared to India. I was also quite surprised to find that Jeremy was more sensible and humane after the 1st 2 episodes.

Clarkson being clarkson! Loved the show, it was a refreshing watch. I miss the trio so bad, anything they’re on I watch it.

PS: I’d binged watched ‘James may our man in Japan’ loved it as well.

Re: Jeremy Clarkson's new show on Amazon Prime | Clarkson's farm

It was entertaining and better than what I had expected. Yes, it did have the old scripts/styles from the original Top Gear. Surprising that Amazon didn't "beep" out some of dialogues.

But I found May's "Our man in Japan" to be better. Recommend all to watch the trio's individual shows. Think I have seen almost all.

Loved the idiosyncrasies in the downright AMAZING duo that Kaleb and Clarkson made!

5/5 recommended! (I totally didn't binge watch the entire series in one sitting )
