OK Im curious for those that voted for Kari, was it because she is so smart or other.:rolleyes: :p
 
Which one was better?

I heard:

- If you're going over 80 km/h, use the AC.
- If you go slowre than 80 km/h, driving with the windows down is good.
Basically equivalent. Heard using the AC was effective now such that you could use it all the time, fast or slow. And I think it was the same on the show.

Don't use it during a heatwave though. Don't want your car to die on a hot summer day.

both :)

she's smart, talented, and a pretty good artist in her own right. And she's a stone fox. I think she's awesome.

Let's face it, it's television. Being an attractive person is part of the gig. I like Travel Channel poster girl Samantha Brown quite a lot, not only because I really enjoy Passport To Europe, but also because she's a little cutie pie. That's probably a little shallow, but...eh. I'm at an age where I like what I like and don't really care why :D
 
I really love this show, but the only thing that ticks me off is all of the dang repeat episodes discovery airs. It seems that everytime i turn on discovery and Mythbusters is on, its one ive already seen :(

I think they film all at once, easier to produce and they throw out new episodes in batches.

we voted for her because..just look at her..she is a beautiful woman... damn near made me cream my jeans the first time i saw her:D but good show.. i like the episode where they test to see if you are in a falling elevator and you jump on the moment of impact so your feet arent on the floor will you be oaky... i wodnered that before that episode... too...bad wording though..sorry people..
 
yah you are right. I noticed this today that when they are filming in the shop, if you look carefully in the background you can sometimes see other projects/experiments they are working on that havnt aired yet (and then you see the episode where they tell you what it is and you tell yourself, "hey i saw that like last month, awesome")
 
I was surprised by the one where they test the trucks to see which one goes farther on one tank of gas. One with the tailgate up, one with the tailgate down.

I can't believe tailgate down won. :eek:

Two months after my post, I realized m mistake.

I should've said. " I can't believe tailgate up won."

Haha, I'm embarresed.:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
 
Very cool show. I'd definitely agree that it's one of the top shows on the tube.

It's hard to pin down 1 myth that would be my favorite, but the escape from Alcatraz Island is one of the best IMHO.

Agree that was one of the best! I used to have the hots for Kari, now she's getting annoying to me
 
I don't really like the show

same here. while i don't usually watch the tube, i tend to avoid mythbusters. it is kinda interesting at times. but most of the time i'd end up being really frustrated with their way of conducting "scientific experiments." and if i wanted the drama, i'd watch drama.

please don't hate me. :)
 
I voted for Adam, the show wouldn't be the same without him. I love this show there are so many cool experiments I don't even know what would be the best.

Maybe the one where they raced a toy car down a slope vs a real one... or trying to pole vault a car using the drive shaft... or when they built a rocket out of stuff that you could easily buy... or when they tried destroying a car engine by putting a sorts of fun stuff in it... or anything that involved buster losing a limb, lol. Okay maybe I watch too much of it.
 
This show, Planet Earth, Stunt Junkies, and the occassional Ted Koppel special are really the only good things on the discovery channel anymore.
