LONDON -- The first episode of Amazon Prime's new series The Grand Tour has garnered rave reviews from critics.

Fronted by the former hosts of the BBC's Top Gear series, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May's return has been hotly anticipated following the less-than-successful airing of the revamped Top Gear.

But did Grand Tour pass the true litmus test of watchability in the modern world?

That is, how did Twitter respond?

As it turns out, Twitter is a big fan.

The show's opening scenes prompted instant praise

Overwhelmingly, The Grand Tour scored high praise from Twitter

Of course, some of the reviews are less reliable than others

But many people seemed to think it was even better than the show's predecessor, Top Gear
