Yeah, but then you get whatever that forgettable British knock-off was.  Or Crashlab, which I think is already canceled.

I think it's the cast themselves that makes the show great.  There've been a half-dozen shows like MythBusters since it came out, and none were anywhere near as good, because they didn't have Adam and Jamie.

Yeah, they both really make the show. That's probably why the early episodes of the second season were kinda blah with the fake tension between them (Probably executive meddling).

Besides, Jamie has a sexy mustache.

Oh god...  A while back, I was browsing (ha, browsing) TVTropes, and added an entry to the MythBusters Fetish Fuel page.  See if you can guess which one's mine.

Enough disturbing Kari fantasies already; the Tree Cannon episode - Surely there's someone out there who enjoyed it for superman Jamie parading around Ye Olde shirtless, hammering hot metal and using big drills on big logs.

That too!
When they tested if a bomb could break a falling airman's fall, they tested it once (I doubt they'd do again). It's a fun show, but not REAL science.

Well done.  Note that I am very straight, I just thought that giant list of Kari fetishism needed some balance.

They only needed to test it once.  The blast wrapped a hunk of wrought-iron around a tree branch.  There is absolutely no way, in a thousand attempts, that they would have found the right combination of factors for a guy to land safely because of a bomb blast.

I find it somewhat scary that I can recognize your style of typing at a glance...

I was going to ask if you recognized it from the context, or from my writing style.  That is a little worrying.

 The really scary part is I'm one of the more 'normal' people here, and I recognized the typing style.

 Even more scary, I'm completely heterosexual and I could think of a few other episodes where he takes his shirt off for hot, sweaty work.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

I think we all have a secret crush on Aqizzar or something... Now the horror whenever he changes his avatar makes sense! :P

All they got are string theorists... XD

Don't know why that made me laugh so much.
