With the grossly over-publicized demise of Mythbusters on the horizon, The Discovery Channel is cramming its schedule with this production, and desperately trying to funnel thrills fans towards this smorgasboard of natural, man-made and scientific phenomena. The hour long show gives you 20 snippets of one or another slices of "science", from blowing up a house to shooting a basketball from the top of a dam. In amongst the excitement we have a bunch of real scientists giving us the low down on what we just saw. The problem is, there's just not enough really interesting stuff to make me willing to watch the dud snippets or the sometimes absurd interjections of the experts. So while I thought that this was a potential replacement for Mythbusters (maybe one of the great background TV shows of all time), on balance it's just too annoying to watch.
