At least Mythbusters know how to remote control a car with rockets strapped to it!

The umbrella gun that shot ice and meat bullets was pretty cool.

No Tom, I don't think of them as engineers. I think most people watch the show to see if the Big Paul has a heart attack or FLips out and kills Paulie! At least that is what I am waiting for!

[Infratracide]

The guys seem to be more artistic and creative than scientific. I met one of them, he's my sister's godmother's brother! Im not kidding! LOL
Well the discovery channel is a farcry from when i used to watch it as a kid... as has most tv. I don't think the show's crew can use complicated experiments for each myth. They only try to reenact reported events (that are now myths) and determine it was at all possible (by giving the myth the benefit of the doubt.)

That friggin "American Chopper" show puts me right over the edge....I've never seen a larger group of hacks in the same place before. They eyeball measure motor vehicles they are building for chrissakes!!!! Then they have no problem using a f'ing makita hand drill to put holes in a steel frame only after it's had a multi-thousand dollar paint job on it. Stupid Sons a -------. I wonder what their rust warantee is.

I belive that if someone with a tiny bit of knowledge of precision manufacturing processes and a pair of calipers walked in that joint they'd be strung up as a witch. I wouldn't let those idiots weld up a wrought iron gate for me much less a motor friggin vehicle.

That's not even mentioning the retarded banter those clows gibber out of thier yaps. "I gotta tell ya, I didn't think Mikey was gonna be able to put his pants on this morning, but you know what? he really came through and I'm proud of him." "You know it's really a lot of work fabricating these custom bikes in such a short period of time." Try making one that's road worthy you moron, then it might be tough.

I can't wait till some clown who was dumb enough to drop 80+K for one of the pieces of junk they call a bike gets hurt and sues them for every dime they've made from hawking occ trucker hats to even dumber people.

Sorry for the rant, but that show is my kryptonite.

My, my, my...... Apparently we didn't get any last nite. Or for the last month it would seem.

OCC definitely beats the heck out of the new one that's running. "Southern Chopper". Watching and listening to that on Sunday nite made my teeth hurt.

oh thats getting deleted. i posted it back in oct. and its gone now.

[barberjohn]

wow, someone's not doin thier job, that pic has lasted almost a half a day.

[hitech]

That chopper show looks pretty bad to me also. However, I've only seen the ads, never watched the show. What ever prompted you guys to watch it in the first place?

I've only seen on full show of Myth Busters. I liked that one. It was about magnetic fields erasing credit card style strips. That one seemed well done to me.

[RoadDawg]

Shows I can't stand are those stupid house make over shows. Talk about retarded. I myself like myth busters, American Choppers and most of all Monster Garage. I like watching these guys come up with some interesting stuff. Myth busters has it's moments and the only one that I didn't like was the "do you get wetter by walking or running in the rain?"

[hardr0ck68]

yeah, BOOO for the home makeover crap....ok patical board, cloth, and FRIGGIN FOAM are not how you redo a house...i have yet to see one of those doppers use a peice of real friggin wood. "oh look we built you this entire deck for a buck and a nickel isnt it wounderful?" "and if you look right over here, you can see that we hid our crappy workmanship with these nifty fake bushes!!" GRRRR

and yeah, i like Monster Garage alot!! Its just cool to see people play around with expensive toys in such a half arsed way...

But for both American Chopper and Monster Garage, the real props go to the painters!!!

[SaS]

Fan of mythbusters and monster garage. But speaking of discovery channel shows... how about Wings back in the day? and no, i'm not talking about the sitcom

Not a fan of the house make over shows either. Southern choppers, hasn't really irritated me... yet

amen brotha

I don't so much mind Monster Garage, those guys are building something that's supposed to work for 20 minutes, and alot of the time it comes out pretty nice for what they had to work with. Every now and again there's some good thinking going on there. It's not some halfwits welding some scrap metal together, with no concept of design or engineering within 2 miles of the shop, then charging 75+K for the piece of garbage with a nice paint job.

Wouldn't ya think that the DOT would require some sort of inspection on motor vehicles to see if they are roadworthy?? Heck even some sort of licence to fabricate stuff that travels the roadways.

I swear to god I was planning on taking welding and motorcyle repair classes purely so I could put those freaks out of business. I'm quite sure that I could "fabricate" some stuff that would blow away "little paulie's" hot garbage.

I can't take it, I don't even want to know what the redneck chopper show is like, it may lead me to crime.
