"Mythbusters" was awful this past season. You can tell they're running out of ideas. I mean really stupid stuff like "can you swim faster in gel than in water," and "can you make a tire catch on fire by drag racing." And now they end each show with the obligatory (and lame) "blow something up in a million pieces for no reason at all."

I used to enjoy the show in the early days. But if they're not going to do any better than this last season for topics, I'd say it's time to wrap it up.
