Confess - you love 'Myth busters'
I love this show. I know you love it too, so you better confess or else...

1. No need to confess.
It's an intelligent show. The hosts are smart, funny and communicate well. It's one of my favorite shows.

6. For me, most DSC/TLC shows have a flaw that somewhat ruins them
Overhaulin - the stupid phone pranks
Monster Garage - The announcer named Schwag, whom I'd love to shoot to death in his recording booth
Any other show with Schwag in it
MythBusters, the guy that looks like a Terrier

10. I agree...with everything but Mythbusters.
I think the two hosts play off each other well.

But I hate the phone pranks on Overhaulin' with a passion.

I saw the Lance Armstong GTO from Overhaulin' recently. He wasn't driving as he was off in Spain training, but his buddy was driving it to a car show.

13. The pranks on Overhaulin' are fake IMO
But I still enjoy watching Chip Foose work. I hate his wheel designs though.

17. Perhaps recorded after the show is done and the car is delivered
They're a waste of time, gimmie the chick and Foose working and I'll be happy, wishing someone would sign me up the whole time.

18. Courtney Hansen is good
They could have easily picked a host that was hot, but annoying and uniformed. Courtney is neither, I can tell she knows about cars, and she's super hot. Chris is bordering on being an annoying schmuck, but for some reason I give him a pass.

11. I like it because I like the hosts
Adam and Jamie taken together are an exact cross section of my personality. It's like tuning in to watch a couple of my best friends put on a TV show.

24. I'll post my favorite Adam line again:
(Exasperated) "How hard can it be....to blow up a room full of gasoline?"

25. My favorite Adam segment
Edited on Wed Apr-27-05 12:18 PM by tridim
He was using some type of obscure measuring probe. He held it up to Jamie's mouth and said something like, "Yep it's confirmed, no sense of humor whatsoever". :)

I love the way Adam and Jamie play off of each other. It's very rare.

He has several good smartass comments, as does Jaime.

29. Fire and explosions are fun!
If you've ever used the guts of a microwave oven in some other kind of machine, or you've ever built a really big bomb, than you know what I'm talking about... oops, I better shut up now.

There are three machines I've always wanted to build but probably never will, now that I'm a responsible family man.

These are:

  1. A big ass Farnsworth fusion Reactor
  2. A big rail gun
  3. A certain kind of hybrid rocket engine

In my dark Edward Teller fantasies I am designing a new kind of hydrogen bomb. That's why I need my rocket engine, so I can test my bomb somewhere on the other side of the solar system, far, far away from earth.

I often wonder what sorts of nightmares Jaime and Adam have, but I am too polite to ask. There's some really bad stuff out there that's not myth.

30. What's to confess? Like it's a dirty little secret? No! It's not!
Embrace the Mythbusters love!
