Today in 2003, the first episode of Mythbusters premiered on the Discovery Channel. Mythbusters is a show about testing the logistics of common myths, idioms, and urban legends, alongside trying to recreate scenes from certain TV Shows, Movies, and Viral videos from a fledgling YouTube.
The series had two sets of hosts. The main team that acted as the face of the show were the energetic and excitable Adam Savage and the stoic walrus Jamie Hyneman. To help the show fill out more, they also had a B-team consisting of Kari Byron, Tory Belleci and the late Grant Imahara. Both teams would tackle different experiments concurrently, but both teams would grade on the same scale of "Confirmed" ,"Plausible" or "Busted". Plus both teams would work together on special episodes and it all happened in the same cool special effects warehouse. If you have never watched this show, check it out, and if you have, this is my reminder for you to go rewatch it.
