The Emmy-nominated reality documentary series MythBusters has been around for a while and its latest season 20 kicked off on November 15th, 2017 with fourteen brand new episodes on the American network Science Channel. Just to clear up some confusion – the show switched from its original destination Discovery Channel after its last season 19 to sister network Science Channel, which continues its run with the current installment and brand-new hosts, who won the spinoff MythBusters: The Search, which was literally searching for new presenters. Jonathan Lung and Brian Louden are now taking over the jobs of Adam Savage and his former cohosts in finding scientific proof for some of the most outrageous claims out there. The featured experiments are often literally explosive as the team goes out to bust popular myths, misconceptions or legends of scientific nature. This epic show kicked of its latest season featuring an outrageous rocket sword, exploding airbags, cutting bullets out of trees to test the consequences and shooting a burglar out of a chimney. .
