I'd liken it more to The Daily Show actually, a news show with a comedic twist. While there is comedy involved viewers expect what they're seeing not to be lies or fabricated stories. Hiding behind the "we're an entertainment show so we don't have to have facts" whenever someone questions a review is lame.

That's not very accurate. The Daily Show has a history of calling people out on misrepresentation. Jon Stewart went on Hardball (or whatever it was called) and chewed the hosts out for destroying journalism and dialog in America. If you want to liken it to The Daily Show, then all of Top Gear is much more like Stephen Colbert's and Steve Carrel's old bits.

  > Jon Stewart went on Hardball (or whatever it was called) Are you referring to his infamous Crossfire appearance? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFQFB5YpDZE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFQFB5YpDZE
