Finally!
:party: (an apt smiley for the occasion).

I see it's available in HD as a download there, do you know of any sites that stream it in HD?

Generally, its only streamed as snippets. But downloads usually go pretty fast, especially the lowdef/350 version when its been 'out' for 2+ days. This place has both versions:

So with a good connection, 15-1 should be getable in under 5 minutes, after Monday

If you have Cable, you can see it on the BBC America channel on Monday nights.

Since you're in CT it's likely the same channel as here in NY.

Channel 106

A minute past 11:59pm on Monday, they have a mini-marathon of Top Gear episodes. Usually four in a row. There's also an episode at 9pm I believe, on every Monday.

The website www.streefire.net has most episodes as well, but they are not in HD. They appear to have the new episode already. BBC America usually plays episodes that are a few seasons old.

I normally skirt around the topic gracefully, but since everyone else is discussing how to see the episodes - just download the torrents. They'll have both high-def and standard copies ready hours after the airing, usually.

I thoroughly endorse seeing the episodes any way you can; BBC America waits several weeks until starting the new season - if you watch the BBC in Britain, the series is aired on the correct schedule, but if you watch the BBC in America, you'll be seeing the first "new" episode after everyone in Britain is several episodes in. I don't appreciate the BBC treating me like a second-class viewer, so they're going to lose my advertising dollars until they get it right.

Well I have the dvd box set of topgear from season 1-12. I viewed the complete season 13 & 14 online. Well, I forgot what site it is. And this ongoing season 15. Yep, topgear is the best motoring show on the planet.

As long as you don't mind the wait; BBC Britain is on season 15/episode 5, next week is the summer season finale - BBC America hasn't aired any episodes from season 15 yet, they don't even mention it on the website.

If you had seen the last episode on time, youd've seen James May's top speed run of the new Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, an Ayrton Senna retrospective, Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz drive the reasonably priced car..
