Mythbusters

The myth that Adam Savage would never return to MythBusters has officially been … well, you get it. The Discovery science franchise will spawn yet another spinoff, as Savage returns to guide a new generation of science-minded kids to bust their own myths.

Fuller House isn’t the only major Netflix premiere (never not weird to say that) hitting this Friday, as three former MythBusters will bust anew in the streaming service’s White Rabbit Project. The M7 Build team will take on a few more fantastical mysteries from the internet, as the first clip sees an attempt and mind and muscle control going awry.

MythBusters may be carrying on under the banner of a new host, but at least some of the original team is getting back to work at what they do best. The M7 Build Team’s Netflix White Rabbit Project has an official trailer ahead of its December 9 premiere.

It could be awhile yet (if ever) before Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman take on the MythBusters title again, but at least ten new science-minded personalities are waiting in the wings for the Science Channel’s new competition to replace them. See for yourself in the first trailer, as MythBusters: The Search farms the next generation.

The final season of MythBusters notably suffered the lack of fan-favorite M7 Build Team members Kari Byron, Tory Belleci, and Grant Imahara, but leave it to a crack team of engineers to devise a new solution. The trio will return for a new Netflix series cryptically described as “MythBusters in Wonderland.”

MythBusters’ 14-year run has barely had enough time to pack up its equipment, and already new faces might pick up the mantle from Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman. The Discovery-owned Science Channel has in mind to revive the famous pop-culture science phenomenon, launching a Search for the Next MythBusters reality competition to find new hosts.

Saddened though we were to learn that Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman would close up the Mythbusters shop after 14 seasons, we have every reason to believe the science and engineering duo will close out their Discovery tenure with bang. Yes, in more ways than one. In the meantime, Savage has begun sharing photos from the last day of shooting, and it looks as explosive as it does … well, something!

For over a decade, the folks at Discovery’s Mythbusters have delighted and intrigued fans and scientists alike, putting pop culture to the test with actual engineering, even amid a few format changes. Sadly, the team of Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman will come to a close, as Discovery confirms Season 14 of Mythbusters will be the last in 2016.

The first time around, Breaking Bad’s scientific approach ended up floundering on the Mythbusters, disproving both Walt’s famous mercury blowout and the iconic acid tub. Now, creator Vince Gilligan finally scores a “Plausible,” as Mythbusters tests the Breaking Bad finale’s famous M-60 rig.

Breaking Bad might have shown us Heisenberg’s final stand long ago, but any good chemist can attest, there’s always more knowledge to be gained. Rev up the RV and break out the hazmat suits, we’ve cooked up another batch of Breaking Bad facts for the 20th episode of ‘You Think You Know TV?’!
