Though I’m not nearly as devoted to it as I am to “Dirty Jobs”, it’s safe to say that I am a fan of the Discovery Channel series “MythBusters”. In fact, in general, where I used to automatically default to the Food Network when I couldn’t find anything to watch on TV, I now gravitate immediately to Discovery Channel. And, since they LOVE to run their shows into the ground, it’s pretty likely I can catch either an episode of “Dirty Jobs” or “MythBusters” any time, day or night (in fact, Bridget woke up early this morning, turned on the television and watched “Dirty Jobs” at 5:30 a.m.).
For a while, I was making a point of recording the MythBuster episodes on the TiVo, but we rearranged our assorted home electronics earlier in the summer and in the process all of the programming we had set up on it was erased, so I’m a bit behind. I’ll catch up, no doubt, just by randomly tuning in, but in the meanwhile, I ran across this helpful website which keeps track of the results of each and every “myth” they test.
(If you’re a fan, you might also like to check out Jamie Hyneman’s no-nonsense website for his visual effects company, M5 Industries. Adam Savage has a website, too, but it’s a little stale)
