The U.S. version needs more time to find it's stride.
People seem to forget that despite the format essentially being created by Clarkson, the first series of the Top Gear on the BBC was a work in progress too. May didn't' join the show until the second series.
I've enjoyed the U.S. version more every week I've watched it.
And Tanner Faust is the only guy to have been on the NBC pilot as well as this History Channel launch. Personal, I think he's boring presenter, but he's an incredibly skilled driver. Just go look at his drifting and X-Games stuff on Youtube for confirmation.
And you can watch the authentic Top Gear on BBC America. Since the BBC is commercial free, they used to edit the episodes up for rebroadcast here within the hour format. They have begun airing the entire episodes over 70+minutes now. The only differences are the commercial interruptions and they often have to change the music used for copyright reasons.
Some would argue the best way to watch the show is through the use of bit Torrents.
