Review of MythBusters

MythBusters (2003–2018)
7/10
a dangerous show
9 June 2010
i'm an avid follower of this show for 3 years now, and i've seen the past episodes too. it's with great sadness that i have to say that around 80% to 90% of the experiments are poorly conducted making it a very painful show to watch sometimes. the thing about mythbusters is that there isn't another show on TV that tries to solve the things they try to solve, so they deserve a better rating that they really work to. i seriously hope that they have competition on a near future so we can see things stepping up. mythbusters also fails to tell us what are the testing conditions of many experiments and that's why i can't possibly consider valid most of the experiments. the 10 to 20% of the experiments that they conduct flawlessly are just brilliant and i accept the final results as truthful ones. on the experiments that are poorly conducted i can always see things they missed and i can always think of what would be the possible result of those experiments if they done things right, but that means a huge doubt about myths they considered Busted and that's unacceptable on most cases. the worst thing about this is that other people can't prove them wrong because of don't having the means to do it, and that's annoying. it is a good show BUT you have to be very careful with it because it's dangerous to believe on something when things aren't done properly. see it, think about it, and if you don't know much about science, never believe it, it's my advice. if you want to see it just for the good explosions and stuff, solely by entertainment purposes, go ahead as this is almost purely an entertainment program.
