DVD Reviews of Mythbusters: Collection 1 (4pc)

DVD Review: Science is fun!
Summary: 5 Stars

I was never that interested in science and technology, which made school rather boring and even a little difficult. I wish I had found this show sooner! Jamie and Adam explain the details in a way people of all ages and learning can understand, and they make even the most disgusting/weird topics intriguing. They mainly handle urban legends, but have expanded in recent years to include internet videos and real life incidents. Humor, science, and huge explosions--what else do you want from an educational show?

DVD Review: Mythbusters Collecation 1-Awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars

I got this for my husband for Christmas because he loves to watch mythbusters. He loves this collection. There are alot of episodes in this box! I also got him Collection 2, so he will be watching these for a long time!

DVD Review: Will bust all myths EXCEPT 9/11 fairy tale
Summary: 2 Stars

I have seen many of the episodes and they are entertaining. However I find it disappointing that on the Mythbusters website, where they take suggestions for new myths to tackle, they state "9/11 topics are inappropriate". Hmm, the worst attack ever on American soil is inappropriate? How so? I find this as a lame cop out to ever tackle the greatest myth ever, that is, that 19 hijackers with boxcutters and Osama Bin Laden outsmarted the greatest military defense ever (for a great review deconstructing this myth I recommend Zeitgeist the Movie part 2). The official 9/11 story holds no water so instead of attempting to defend the official 9/11 conspiracy theory (which would be difficult to do) they simply deem it as "inappropriate". As if this wasn't lame enough, they then recommend and link to the Popular Mechanics (the defenders of the official 9/11 story) article Debunking the 9/11 Myths, which unfortunately has already been de-debunked by David Ray Griffin's Debunking 9/11 Debunking book. But hey who cares, after all Mythbusters got some extra publicity with an advertisement on the Popular Mechanics webpage that they linked to! Who's makin' extra bucks on that deal? Moral of the story? If you have a question 9/11-related, don't try mentioning it to Mythbusters and you're probably better off keeping your mouth shut.

DVD Review: Excellent DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

Cable TV has just become to expensive I canceled it all but the basic package which cut my cost to cable by over $50 a month. My son and I loved the Discovery chanel so I have taken to purchasing the dvd's to the programs he most liked on Discovery. We love being able to watch what we want when we want and now he no longer has access to TRASH TV.
We love Mythbusters and continue to collect all of their DVD's.

DVD Review: Every Kid's Dream
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this show, they do what every kid wants to do. See how things work and whether myths are true.

Adam (a bit "goofier") and Jamey (more dead pan) work perfectly together mixing an entertaining blend of humor and science in trying to find out whether a "myth" is real or not. And often the experiments are things we would all like to try, but don't, for good reason.

It is a great show for older (mature) children to watch with adults.

Highly recommened
