Looks like the first episode airs January 28th. My DVR is showing Mythbusters in that timeslot, hopefully it'll update before then.

I was not impressed with the first episode, it had too much bullshit drama, too much stock footage of building implosions thrown in for no real reason, a distinct lack of science, and no where near enough Worsey. I'm hoping later episodes will be better, but I'm not holding my breath.

Discovery Channel caters to the general populous with regards to science.

(E.g. Mythbusters...Science; sorta kinda...)

Discovery plays into typical American television with 'info-tainment'.

Discovery Channel should come with a disclaimer: "While we make every attempt to verify the accuracy of our programing, Discovery channel should not be used as a substitute for a college education."

I enjoyed it. Worsey was definitely the most potent personality on the show. He should've hosted.

Agreed. It almost seemed like he was the goofy scientific-aspect-explaining sidekick.
