About this show

Each episode, the MythBusters, Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, two special effects experts with more than 30 years of experience, methodically set out to bust three urban legends. And they don't just explain if something's true or false: through trial and error, they demonstrate it. Sometimes they crash things, sometimes they blow things up -- all in the name of science.

Amazing, just amazing. I really like watching this on Hulu so google play movies PLEASE make it free, it would get rid of the haters who are doing nothing but hating with their life. I just wish that it would go on longer... but just PLEASE MAKE IT FREE! I don't wanna keep on dealing with the haters, so please keep on going with this show! I am now just typing to make my point, so please pardon my insanity at the hater for blaming Mythbusters for cruddy Google Play Movies choices band giving Mythbusters,ONE OF THE ONLY SHOWS I EVER WATCH.

We have been watching this show from the beginning. The new season doesn't have Grant, Tori, or Kari. And while I have to say I miss Grant and Tori so much, I am more happy that I don't have to deal with pushy Kari anymore. The show was always worth putting up with her but it's nice going back to just the boys. Adam and Jamie have such a great chemistry. And while Grant and Tori shared their love and joy of science and figuring out stuff. I am enjoying watching them do their thing without the drama.
