Never watched it, but they purchased 'Tested' which probably meant that the Korean gay dude Norm (?) was required for frequent bouts of unethical anal with the fruity looking beret dude.

He was having his anal grip 'Tested' if you will.

Mostly agree but "Square wheels" was a car myth and I think that's their lowest loving point.

I remember reading something that an intern on the show wrote about how kari, toby, and the asian guy ended up becoming super diva and refusing to do any actual work on the show except occasionally when they were bored and would try to do things but just gently caress it up.


Also jamie has a really bad stutter but you could never tell because the editing guy was so good.

I liked square wheels because you knew exactly what was going to happen and it didn't disappoint. That car just fell apart, and I laughed until I peed.

Anybody remember their attempt to clone Mythbusters called SMASHLAB?

It was all the explosions and cars and stuff from MB but with uninspired paid actors who didn't look like they wanted to be there and no real plot or purpose it was embarrassing.

I thought it was pretty good the whole run. The peak for me was when they were blowing up the water tanks sending them ridiculously sky high just by overpressurizing them.

Does the Discovery channel even have any other watchable shows anymore? Watching gigantic spawn piles of children isn't appealing.

It turned out that if Kari had comically huge floppy whoppers, she made a hell of a lot more in tips from both men and women.

I caught the middle of an episode on TV recently where the whole thing was Adam flying a U2 spy plane, and he was completely flipping out about how excited he was because he was getting to fly in a high-altitude jet, rattling off tech specs and blowing his load when he could see the curvature of the planet, etc.

I didn't even know what the myth was until the end, and it turned out to be "is the U2 spy plane the hardest aircraft to land?" which seemed really stupid and not a myth that anyone's even heard or gives a poo poo about. Congrats on getting to fly exotic aircraft on Discovery's dime, tho.

That episode was beautiful, and I too caught it half-way through, not knowing what the myth even was. But hearing Adam talk about the curvature of Earth brought an actual tear to my eyes. Absolutely breath-taking.

I wonder what I'd have to do to get Discovery to pay for me to fly in a U2.

What was that other knock off show with the generic white dude and the other guy with the dreads? Those two had negative personality, every scene they were in they were actively giving off douche chills in a 20 mile radius.

what i love about mythbusters is how they remind you of what has happenned, what is happening, and what is going to happen, every 5 minutes, for 2 minutes.

basically the show has about 10 minutes of content but they make it last 60 minutes.

actually that's all american tv. you guys are loving dumb
