Although Jeremy Clarkson's fight with a producer of one of the world's most viewed programs came as a bit of a shock, it wasn't much of a surprise that the BBC washed its hands of the legendary presenter. It wasn't the first time that Clarkson had irked his employer with his radical behavior, let's put it that way.
Now that he has been sacked and it seems Richard Hammond and James May have not left their colleague's side, we're left to ask "So, now what?"
Though rumors have been swirling that a BBC competitor had made an offer for Clarkson, another rumor has sprung up and it suggests that Clarkson and company may move to Netflix. Sounds like a brilliant plan to me. According to the latest word on the street, Clarkson was said to have been offered complete freedom as a part of his Netflix deal.
No credible word has been passed down, but it seems Clarkson is playing it cool this time around. At a charity auction Clarkson said:
"Now some of you know there used to be a program called Top Gear. It was on the BBC…But we could be back somewhere else. Or maybe even not somewhere else, who knows?"
Could the rumors be fueled by pure speculation? Absolutely. But it's nice to think that there may be a new home for the boys. Let's see how this ordeal continues to play itself out.
