Wants to be Mythbusters
3 Oct 2011
Format:DVD
The cast wants to be a mythbuster but they continuously make silly and stupid mistakes. The create a small house to see what happens when a tornado/hurricane hits. (They fail to secure the building to the ground and the house gets blown away. They are testing the strength of a 2x4 versus a 2x4 wrapped with carbon fiber... their testing is conducted by the four of them standing on the board... the regular 2x4 snaps with the three guys and the girl standing on the guys feet. The carbon fiber covered 2x4 doesn't snap but the 4 of them are lined up and the weight is distributed differently.
How do you make a house wild fire proof? You wrap it in a fire retardent material like the stuff worn by nascar drivers... the stuff works... except when you leave the frayed edges exposed to heat... they light up... duh... stupid bad science spelled the doom for this show.

Terrible, don't waste your time.

This show was cringe-inducingly bad. The lack of chemistry between the co-hosts is overcompensated for with either awful writing or awful adlibbing. They make glaring mistakes from an engineering and scientific stand-point and it just doesn't work. They're trying too hard to be MythBusters or something. I'm definitely happy this show got canned. It was insulting of Discovery to think that people would enjoy this tripe.

Great for kids!

My 12 year old, science-minded son and I love this show. It's a great introduction to applying science, math and technology to real-world problems in innovative ways. It teaches creative problem solving and the reality that not all innovative ideas work. We wish there were more.
