As you can deduce from the title, this show is about Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear/Grand Tour fame figuring out how to farm on his 1000 acre property in the Cotswalds. Its pretty hilarious on a variety of levels and I recommend.

Do like the show. Kaleb is a good pick for a farm hand. The only downside is that Hammond, May, and Clarkson make for such a good team, their individual content is never as good as the Top Gear/Grand Tour shows.

I agree that Kaleb is an interesting character, but I think Gerald is my favorite part of the show. Maybe the sheep, but Gerald gets the biggest laughs from me.

Love this show. It's the most TG in tone show they've done solo. Kaleb needs to be in other shows with Clarkson.

I appreciate the recommendation. I never watched Top Gear, but I thoroughly enjoyed this show. It's a slow burn, but it grows on you by the end of the second episode.

My old man put me onto this show and enjoyed every bit of it.

Clarkson hit it out of the park with this one.

A great deal of humor while at the same time showing the difficulty of farming and the importance of what they do. After watching this while also suffering through Hammonds painful island show and Mays mind numbingly dull cooking show I'm beginning to wonder if Clarkson was the true talent driving Top Hear and Grand Tour.

I love Top Gear/Grand Tour so very much. Binged this series, and genuinely enjoyed it. I love how Clarkson treads the line between irreverent and sincere. All the guys do that well, but Clarkson in particular. He's a pro at that moment where they rehash the crazy, and then he explains what the car/experience meant to him.

They really need to cast him as the next Dr Who and Hammond and May for the companions.

Not sure I can recommend this show enough but I was/am a huge Top Gear and Grand Tour fan.

And season 2 drops on 2/10, why does amazon even care what a brit says about the members of the royal family who don't care to be a part of the royal family?

The obsession with British royalty is one of the stupidest things we have come up with as a species. Why does anyone care what any of these people do or have to say.

Looking forward to the second season.

Clarkson is also now on the beer business . Stopped by his little brewery back in September when we were in the Cotswolds

If there were ever a commercial for less government, this season would be it. The hoops they have to jump through, for the smallest things, are astounding!

Government isn't some mythical thing that is just out there and gets in the way on purpose. It's just made up of regular people that participate in it. The problem is most people are stupid jerks.

Having spent countless hours and dollars trying to negotiate similar bureaucratic agencies, similar to what Clarkson went through, I beg to differ.

Made up of individuals, yes. Mythical, no it's very real. Intent on getting in the way? Maybe not, but the result is that regulatory power is absolutely real and (as pointed out in the show) has the ability to levy fines, impose prison sentences, and destroy self-determination.

To me, that's significantly more powerful than a few people acting like jerks

I love this show. Clarkson is very genuine, and always seems to be 'in the moment'. He appreciates everything from bees, to the chicken coup couple, to the people who participated in the hedge competition.

But man....how freaking frustrating is his journey? It's ridiculous that a 'council' has so much sway...to the point they are shutting down local farmers out of pure spite. His restaurant and store was going to help so many local farmers. There are so many layers upon layers of regulations, anyone can cherry pick anything out of the regs to shut you down if they so choose.

I saw an update online, he eventually had to shut down the restaurant for good. The council gave him something like 6 days or 6 weeks to comply with a list of demands, which were impossible to do inside the timeframe they gave him. Many other councils have weighed in, and commented that his treatment has been ridiculous and targeted.

He needs to use his voice, and campaign for change. There is a void left with Brexit and the English government needs to jump in and assist their vital industries, like Farming....yesterday.

There was a thread about this show on the outdoor board. I love both seasons, season 1 is more entertaining but season 2 was more educational. I think it did a great job at really showing the difficulty of being a farmer, not just for a relative layperson like him but for even the professionals. He had the benefit of being able to fund the farm regardless and hire great people, but it's such a difficult thing to do to make a living. The people in that town he lives in can get bent, too, just ridiculous. Don't want to ruin anything for the people that haven't seen it and would want to.

I thoroughly enjoyed both seasons. Funny, educational, entertaining. The chemistry between Clarkson and Caleb is fantastic. It's as though the have been best mates for decades.

This show was my "Happy Show". Where I could come home and just enjoy an hour of television at a time. No violence, nudity, wokeness, messages, or agendas. There is some cursing, but that is life on the farm.

I highly recommend this show.

Have loved both seasons. I hope Amazon lets someone else pick it up after Season 3.

I also actually lol every time Gerald shows up and starts talking because no one can understand him.

Love this show almost as much as I enjoyed Top Gear..... Grand Tour is a bit hit and miss for me. Having said that after Clarkson's Farm I've come to believe that Clarkson was the magic behind the success of Top Gear with the other two merely along for the ride.

Love the show. Just started season 2.
If you're far enough ahead, and i am not, you know Jeremy starts selling beer.
His commercials for said beer are on Youtube.
Funny as hell

Turn on the captions. They escalate the comedy. (hint, they don't understand everything either)

I thought about that but never did because it was funnier to me if I couldn't understand I'm either.

Loved Season One.

Just finished Season Two, and it is also great. Not as funny, a bit darker regarding the human nature revealed in The Council, but very well done. I enjoyed him and all the people who work for him and with him.

Well done.
