Mythbusters season 11 episode 2 adam special

вЂњWe wanted to make sure that theyвЂ™re their own people,вЂќ he explained. Etkind says the reality show put contestants through the paces to make sure that they not only had the right skills, but the right charisma. That show ended, producing the two hosts who will bring MythBusters back: Jon Lung and Brian Louden. It launched Search for the Next Myth B usters, in early 2016, which pitted 15 candidates against one another for the opportunity to host the show. To do this, the Science Channel turned to a format that relies on people tuning in to watch antics: a reality television competition. (Ironically, Adam and Jamie arenвЂ™t close friends.) Picking the right hosts to head up a revival of the show would be key.

Audiences didnвЂ™t just tune in to see the two blow something up: they showed up to watch their antics. вЂќДЄdam and Jamie were engaging and entertaining hosts, and this is a type of show that relies heavily on the charisma of its leads.

вЂњAnd we recognized that we couldnвЂ™t put just two people in there to play. вЂњJaime and Adam are in ways not replaceable - theyвЂ™re legends,вЂќ Etkind notes. Marc Etkind, the Science ChannelвЂ™s general manager, says that they recognized the appeal of the show and вЂњmade sure that the show had the DNAвЂќ of the original, bringing back much of the original crew to work on it. The original MythBusters have since moved on to other projects: Belleci, Byron, and Imahara now host The White Rabbit Project on Netflix Hyneman is working on a bunch of neat gadgets and Savage films videos for Tested, cosplays, and is on the road with a live show Brain Candy.Д«ut even while the original MythBusters was winding down, it was clear that the topic and format was a durable one. That incarnation of the show ended in 2015, with Savage and Hyneman closing out the show with a special вЂњsend-offвЂќ season. The original MythBusters ran for 14 seasons with hosts Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage, and a secondary build team of Tory Belleci, Kari Byron, Grant Imahara, as well as Scottie Chapman, and Jessi Combs for a couple of seasons. Tonight, the Science Channel is resurrecting its reality show where two hosts test out a bunch of urban legends, usually with a hefty dose of science, engineering, and explosions thrown in.
