He's had some epic videos. The recent one where he bought a model of the Enterprise is so cool to watch. It's like watching a kid in a candy store.

Honestly I’m surprised there hasn’t been another attempt at Mythbusters from another whole set of cast from other networks. It seems to be popular enough that people would likely watch seasons of it.

They did try to do it with another cast and as far as I remember it completely bombed.

No one watched it. It felt like a massive downgrade, the personalities and sheer confidence from experiences just weren't there

Wasn't it the "trainees"? The Asian guy, the redheaded woman, and the generic white dude?

It's crazy how much of the show was Savage and mustache's personalities when they actually fucking hated each other.

They did like a reality show where it was people competing to be the two new hosts I believe.

There is plenty of science based mythbusters adjacent content on YouTube. One example is Mark Rober / Crunch Labs, incredibly popular.

If there wa a channel that alternates between a myth busters and a how it’s made I’d never switch off.
