What I like about Tim is that he's fundamentally a car guy, he may cook the odd turkey via the exhaust of a Lambo (to pinch TG's 11-18yo target audience) but he'll never dismiss a car due to it not having a sense of humour or not breaking traction easily in a 4x4.
I'd rather watch Shmee tell me what every single button does in a Veyron to watching some ratings obsessed puppets seeing if a Toyota Carina can double up as a submarine.

sh*t me, Shmee has just messaged me on Facebook whilst I'm watching his show!
edit: Shmee is not happy with SKY Showcase's quality control! Audio was extremely quiet.
TBH the show was quite dull and at times incoherent.

Shmee has been posting on Facebook that his friend/cameraman and fellow Youtuber Seb Delaney has been car jacked in Paris at gunpoint
His huge European following have been tracking it!

Yeah, they have to be careful now, Shmee is probably the 2nd most well known car journalist on the planet now and he's still advertising his whereabouts all the time. ..and he and his team have a lot of haters, as seen on here.

Clarkson
Shmee
Leno
Hammond
May
There's an argument for May and Hammond 2nd and 3rd but they aren't especially know fundamentally as car journalists, bur rather stooges for Clarkson's staged pranks that are sometimes car related. I'm talking out and out car Journos.
Jay Leno is the most well known of the 5 but again, for presenting rather than explicitly reviewing and covering cars.

Not worldwide.
This "who should host Top Gear" list for example of 126,000 votes, Shmee garnered more votes than any other Journo!!!
http://www.ranker.com/list/who-do-yo...r-/matthewgill
Most SN users won't have heard of Shmee, yet, but he's amassed 273,326,647 views on youtube and has 2,286,795 followers on facebook. He's the fastest growing car related online following according to some web data.
Jay Leno's garage has accrued 217,016,940 views by comparison.
Clarkson's Top Gear a monumental 1,253,074,488 views
So I suppose in a way Shmee is the 2nd most well known car related media outlet, this list of youtube views puts it all into perspective:
1,253,074,488 - Top Gear
273,326,647 - Shmee
217,016,940 - Jay Leno
143,822,123 - Supercars of London
124,150,038 - 5th Gear
27,543,261 - Salomondrin
26,491,160 - Chris Harris
14,550,224 - Seen through glass
7,190,157 - Seb Delanney
6,932 - KG Tuning

Actually I'm wrong as per.
Boring **** Saabkyle04, 402,898,460 views!!! Though Kyle only has 47,000 Facebook followers compared to Shmee's 2.3million and 32,000 followers on instagram compared to Shmee's 733,000, so I'm tying myself up in knots again.
Shmee is certainly number 1 in regards to pictures of cars from all the aforementioned journalists, AFAIK, so maybe there's an argument in that too.
It's only a matter of time, before Shmee is king of all outlets IMHO. TV Show, picture galleries, social media sites and youtube.
No gay interest (I watch Seb Delanney for that), just common sense.

Hard to denounce Shmee being well known, when you see what he stacks up against.

Geez the fanboyism for Schmee is shocking in this thread.
I'm not even going to insult the dude personally but his stuff is boring. Car vlogging in general is boring and most supercars are dull as ditchwater as they get more and more blinged up to be vlogged about and posted on instagram rather than actually used to function as the absolute pinnacle of automotive technology.
I'm looking forward to the new Top Gears (yes both of them) but if Schmee made his way on to my tv I definitely wouldn't be watching the BBC one. We already have Chris Evans on there, he's bad enough. The spot for a rich (slightly bellendish) supercar owner who actually deep down doesn't know the first thing about cars is already filled.
Sorry, just my opinion
Enjoy the SupercarsTV stuff

It's not all about TV these days, Shmee is a player in the car world now, it's incontrovertible.
Ask a 1000 people at random in Germany who Jason Plato is and who Shmee is and I bet more know of Shmee.

You know you would'nt get near as much flakk about Schmee in return if you weren't acting so fanatical about it.
Or are you about to announce the opening of the first worldwide Church of Schmee?

I know, but to be aware of that content you'd still need to know who he is, to be able to follow him. Mentioning his TV "show" is just embarrassing. It's really poor.
No, no he's not.
Er no, that sample of 1000 krauts probably wouldn't have a clue who either of them are.

Agreed, first to recognise the name wins!
Shmee has sold more McLaren's than their F1 campaign.
