They do three series a year, with 6-8 episodes in each -that's a minimum of 18 hours of TV to make - there just aren't enough interesting new cars to do a 1 hour show just on cars. Personally, I'd rather see them pushing supercars around than a Mazda 6 diesel.
Clarkson has said it's an entertainment show - before they redid the Top Gear format, how else would anyone have had a car show where entire families sit and watch it on a Sunday night? It just wouldn't have happened.
