Yes you are The BBC has suspended Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson "following a fracas" with a producer.
The Corporation said the show, also presented by Richard Hammond and James May, will not be broadcast on BBC Two this Sunday. The other two remaining episodes of the series have also been pulled from the schedules. |

This is probably true, and I can appreciate driving skill and I even enjoy talking about the techniques for performance driving. What makes Clarkson a better host than Tanner and in my opinion a guy I would rather have a beer with is Clarkson's ability to talk about CARS. Not Himself.

It's okay because the American version is better. FBBC He does have NASCAR in his name Tanner Foust can out drive Clarkson, May or Hammond with his eyes closed.

That is where Top Gear US could have done something correct if they got Adam Carolla. There was a rumor that he was going to host the US version for a season. Too bad they got the wrong mix and fucked it up by copying every BBC challenge verbatim. |

http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2015-03-10/top-gear-series-postponed-after-jeremy-clarkson-punches-producer
The three remaining episodes of Top Gear series 22 have been pulled from the schedules after Jeremy Clarkson was accused of punching a producer. The Top Gear host has been suspended from the BBC after allegedly aiming a punch at a male producer, in an incident last week. |

So, how many BBC executives do I need to shag to be the new host?

There is nothing wrong with punching someone

Why would the BBC pull episodes already filmed? It doesn't make sense, because Clarkson would already have been paid for filming them, it would only affect the BBC's bottom line, not Clarkson's. It'd be like cutting a lower receiver in half to piss off the manufacturer.
I would be willing to bet that Clarkson's contract says he has creative control over what hits the airwaves and he pulled the episodes, not the BBC. |

Nobody could name a Top Gear producer without looking it up - probably not even BBC's HR department. |

If you want a show where people sit around droning on about the MPG, exact shade of beige on the trim and turning circle size of the new Ford Focus, then you watch Fifth Gear. If you want a show where a high performance sports car races a plane from Italy to central London or where some guys buy up used cars and try to make them sail across the English channel, then you watch Top Gear. |
