It was a lot of fun to watch the Model X review, though as others stated here it did seem a bit neutered and restrained from their normal more wackiness.
I like Clarkson, Hammond, and May. I can understand how people can hate them but honestly the whole show is for fun, and a lot of people don't understand their/British humor will obviously have a lot harder of a time enjoying it. I get that but I try not to take them seriously, and I mean, how funny was it of them to take a bunch of old Jaguars and try to sell them on the luxury, their reliability, and their high end performance (/sarcasm). It can be enjoyable if you're not wound up tighter than a cramped hammy.
Tesla IMO came off as petty and (I have said this before in the few comments on this blog) very much how Trump would behave in a similar situation in regards to the roadster. Sure, some of it might be a bit overblown for the sake of argument the GT does that to like everything. It's just the name of the game.
I love Tesla, I like Elon, and I want both to succeed, but you got to admit, there are worthy criticisms of both, and missed production schedules, over promising and under delivery of practically everything leaves them very open to it. There are still not unreasonable limitations with electric cars (though many positives that assuage those like supercharging, ability to charge at home, etc), and a show that is based on picking apart any flaw of a vehicle is going to do that and do it in spades (see the Alfa Romero SUV review, having to literally abandon it for a Ford F150 because it doesn't have a tow hitch and making fun of that).
People need to take a deep breath, accept that people can GASP make fun of something, and realize that at the end of the day letting someone poke a bit of fun at something and then being done with it leads to less issues that blowing up and freaking out just because your precious Tesla is poked fun at just a bit. Which I find ironic, given the amount of nitpickiness people "in the club" here express being upset about this that or the other thing about their Tesla (no heated steering wheel in the 3? Alcantra gone! RIOT).
