Mythbusters

I've watched the odd episode of Mythbusters and really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I don't have Sky at home and so haven't really had a chance to watch much more of it, but I'd probably do so if I had the opportunity to. In respect of whether their methods are that scientific or not, I hadn't really paid much attention to that really, but I suppose it's a valid point. I agree with Mirage though, in that regardless it does show whether something is possible or not, regardless of how realistic it is.

I've only seen it a couple of times, and I thought it was okay.

It's a great show, based right here in the Bay Area!

I think the hosts are great and I love their job. The two teams work well together. Some of the things they test are really interesting and the results sometimes surprising. My favorite was when the elephants were actually afraid of mice. That blew my mind that it was actually true.

Like Shlup said, it's not exactly scientific and they do have simple sampling, but they are testing some silly things here and it doesn't take a lot of science to realize a bullet that goes through a guy's nuts and into a woman's stomach isn't going to get her pregnant.

Educational? Meh, kinda. Their experiments are rarely actually scientific, as their sampling methods are way too simple.

Yeah, you shouldn't take much of what they do too seriously, but it's still entertaining.
