dirty jobs and mythbusters

Post Reply New Topic

it seems that the mythbusters will never ever run out of things to do

My brother and I love Mythbusters.

I think "Dirty Jobs" is hilarious! It makes me laugh.

Love Myth Busters, i was disappointed to hear I wouldn't be getting discovery Channel HD with my HD package i want to see those explosion in beautiful HD. dirty jobs is pretty good but still not as good as Myth busters in my opinion.

Mythbusters is good because they approach it scientifically with control experiments as well as the actual one.

I like Dirty Jobs but Mythbusters is in list one of the my favorite shows.

I'm just waiting for Mythbusters to devote an entire season to debunking the physics in McGuyver. XD

"I'm going to build a bomb with duct tape, a pencil, a screwdriver, and a piece of bubble gum!"

oooo!! i love mythbusters!! especially jamie ^ ^

haven't had an opportunity to watch 'dirty jobs' yet, though i am looking forward to it as well. the promos look really interesting.

Ok, well, I just had about 8 days off from work and since I was stung up in a hospital bed I pretty much just sat there and watched Discovery, Travel, and Food Network all day. After watching a lot more episodes of Dirty Jobs, definitely like the show. The only question I got left with, was the second trip to Savoy Alligator Ranch their last episode? I know Mike was going on about needing new assignments, seems like they either had no booking agent for him or who ever was supposed to be doing it was thumbing it pretty deep, and after all that they had one of the glide boats flip and they lost about $100k in camera equipment.

Other than that I ended up getting stuck on a few more:

Anthony Bordain - No Reservation: just interesting to watch the travel and culture. After that though I'm really getting an itch to go to the nearest international market to make some Indonesian, African, and all kinds of other stuff.

Man v. Wild - The guy's clearly insane but at the same time, being he's a trainer for British special forces and he's a major expert on survival skills they've got the right man for the job. I can relate to why he does what he does to a point, being in exotic places like that and seeing them for yourself has to be priceless; sacrifices of course come in terms of getting hacked up by all kinds of brush, drinking your own urin, eating grubs, and fighting with mosquitoes from Jumanji.

How its Made - Gets a little boring at times but when they do have something that catches my eye and makes me wonder its a really great show.

Alton Brown's Good Eats - I was already watching this a lot before just because I liked how he explained a lot of what was done and why with certain cooking processes, real practical and on point tips and tricks, just that now I'm pretty sure I'll be raiding the Food network website and raiding all the Alton Brown recipes I can get.

i have to agree with you, techstep. it's starting to look like mike rowe is in need of some new material to work with (or get dirty with). and it's going to be the same problem with 'mythbusters', because they're now depending on myths from television shows. yet, they still retain their charm.

I realised (via the power of actually reading the TV guide rather than relying on pure luck) that mythbusters is on at 6am, 1pm (the same as the 6am show) and then a double bill at 6pm. Since realising this, i have watched as many episodes as I can, and yet I'm still not bored with it! My obsessions usually fizzle out after a very intense burst of watching and finding out as much information as possible on the internet, but it doesn't seem to be abating.

The funniest thing I've seen on Mythbusters so far was where Jamie had to take a huge engine out of a car and he says (paraphrasing) "I needed to take the engine out of the car...so I did" whilst laughing his head off.

I could watch Jamie and Adam all day long.

Dirty jobs is good too. I had one of those jobs. One of the dirtier ones.
