Top Gear crew contracted with Amazon
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May, the former hosts of the BBC’s immensely popular car show Top Gear, are headed to Amazon.
After Clarkson attacked a producer over a lack of hot food in March, the BBC declined to renew his contract. Hammond and May left the show as well.
The team has already committed to three seasons, showing that Amazon is serious about this new car show. It might also hint at a bidding war with other networks and streaming services, with Amazon offering a longer commitment than others. In particular, the WSJ reports that there was a bidding war between Netflix and Amazon. (MTI, Kertész Róbert)
