Is there a cooler program on TV than MYTHBUSTERS? I submit there is not.

I can't believe they get paid to do that stuff. I am insanely jealous.

Agreed. My all time favorite was when they drove the school bus behind the 747 and it got thrown through the air like a piece of debris. Another favorite was when they were trying to show whether or not a high speed ceiling fan would decapitate you. Tons of fun.

I don't like it all that much because I think they are sloppy in their conclusions.

I'm with you. That show is awesome.

I wonder if I can get paid to blow stuff up?

Conclusions? Who cares?

It's not a science show but a guy show for guys. Who hasn't wanted to blow stuff up and get paid for it?

There's a knock with a cute gal that's not as good.

I saw one episode where they dropped watermelons from the roof of a building. They also launched watermelons across a football field from a catapult.

In another episode, they made some sort of dry ice bomb.

My only regret is that this show was not around when I was a kid and had all my summers with no parental supervision during the day.

Okay, I need to start watching that show. What channel is it on?
