    Default Fifth Gear Has Been CANCELLED!

    http://www.finalgear.com/news/2009/1...ear-cancelled/

    Posting this from the Quebec airport, so this post will have to be brief.

    Fifth Gear was canceled today — it will not be back according to The Daily Mail. While the show obviously wasn’t as entertaining to watch as Top Gear, it’s still a shame in my opinion.

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...elevision.html

    However, Jonny Smith has been tweeting:

    To answer all the tweets about Fifth Gear ending – I don’t know who the Daily Mail talked to, but nothing is official. TV is a fickle world.

    FG is always compared to the big-budget epic movie monster that is TG. It can’t and won’t ever be TG. FG was always more, well, grass roots.

    To be completely honest, it could be time for a fresh car TV show recipe. Right now I’m enjoying Industrial Junkie & motor journalism tho!

    I hope this isn't the case. I like Fifth Gear a lot.

    Its a shame too. The bit I remember most will always be where Vicki said that she gets banged around enough on the show.

    My favorite tread on Finalgear was Vicky's tits.

    Im really gonna miss the show. The Tiff and Jason showdowns were epic.

    It was a shame when speed channel removed them, i enjoyed watching it, even though i enjoy TG better.
