| Who all here watches Mythbusters? I think it's a great program, been running for several seasons now. Debunking popular myths and what-not with science. I like it when they use firearms in their experiments. Especially the monsterous .50 cal rifle, man that's huge. Some other funny stuff is when Adam just tries the piss off Jamie. |

LOL, i watch mythbusters too. or should i say, use to. that was until the tv chanel just stopped showing it.
ill watch it once its on again.
the whole show in general is awesome. and yeah, i love it when adam imitates jamie and tries to piss him off. soo funny.
i also like when tori hurt himself those few times.
and grant, where;d he come from? :S
sometimes tho i think they dont do the tests right. sometimes i draw my own conclusions based on what i know or predict would happen if i had made a slight change to what they did.
i mean, sometimes they kinda just rush some of them, and this can be counted as either IV or DV.
but otherwise, its a well 45minutes spent. _________________ [img:567:138:151453bb6b]http://www.anime-source.com/upload/uploadFiles/wahagifsda.gif[/img:151453bb6b]

| It's a great show! I love their curiosity, their insanity, and above of all, when they use Buster. Man, every time he is completly destroyed. But is his function anyway. |

| Its a great show, and its recorded locally! In fact, most of the larger experiments are done on the old naval base near where I live. They do all the explosive stuff and car stuff on the runways here. |

I like the show, but I dislike some of their conclusions. Some of the approaches are so riddled with flaws it's a wonder they can offer any conclusion at all. In many cases, the best they can say is they couldn't replicate the myth under theor trial circumstances. Unfortunately, they tend to generalize their outcome as only possible outcome for all cases.
Having stated that, I do find the show entertaining. |

i dnt see it regularly...
but given the chance to see it... i will stay with the channel to finish the show...
its entertaining and educational as well.
the last episode i saw was the elevator thing... they experimented if anyone'll survive a falling elevator (simply by jumping before impact)...
the concept is geeky..but i find them cool... |

| I watch Mythbusters, it's a pretty entertaining series. Sometimes you just know that the myth is gonna be busted, but it's still cool to see them do it (often with explosive results). My favorite myth has to be the Alcatraz escape, mainly because the actually pulled it off! |
