Word about seeing the familiar trio of hosts from "Top Gear" fame back on a new show has been out for quite some time now and all that is known is that it will be backed by Amazon.
Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond rose to fame with "Top Gear" and the guys are expected to be seen together once again for the highly awaited "Amazon Top Gear" show.
Jeff Bezos spent a great deal of time and money to get it all done, admitting that the trio was an expensive investment. Although the figures weren't disclosed, Bezos didn't seem to mind it that much and believes it was worth it.
The New York Post, however, reports that the "Amazon Top Gear" production could very well be costing Bezos a record $250 million, majority of which may not be surprisingly the paycheck that Clarkson, Mays, and Hammond would be getting.
And while that report could somehow give folks an idea of how hard and expensive it was to make it all happen, the online show has other pressing matters to address right now such as the actual title of the show.
Rumors have it that it could be called "Freebirds" while there are others who believe "Gear Knobs" have a nice ring to it.
Whatever the official working title would be, it may be around for a long time since Bezos seems to be producing more than just one show.
"It can't just be one show, it has to be a number of things," says Bezos via the Sunday Telegraph. "We have a lot of things in the pipeline, which I think viewers in the UK and around the world are going to love."
There is high expectation for the said show and based on how Bezos was speaking with the NY Post, it doesn't seem to be a problem.
