![]() ![]() There was very little in this show that we have not seen many times before. Few people will be recommending the Grand Tour as must-see viewing if it appears just annually and isn’t worth the wait.Īnd that brings me to Madagascar. They will not be impressed that they are shelling out millions of dollars for a show that is not impressing its audience and probably not building a bigger audience. Amazon will be performing the same calculations. In other words, we are paying customers and expect value for money. The costs for its production are paid for by Amazon and its Prime members. It forgets that the Grand Tour is not free TV. The churlish comment in this article suggesting envy is the motivation for such comments is entirely false. If the producers had been up front and told everyone that they’re going to release an episode once per year (Seamen was aired on December 13th 2019), there would not have been this general frustration (it was not a clever marketing tactic – the uncertainty gave the impression of complete disorganization – we just forgot about the Grand Tour and let it show when it did – the magic of having something to look forward to was lost).Īs for the comments about the fees that are paid to JC, JM and RH is relevant. There was a great deal of uncertainty when it would be aired and plenty of speculation, including some expressed frustration from JC himself. There were very high expectations for this episode.
