Sad news from Variety today, the next season of Mythbusters will be the last.
"'Mythbusters' is — and will always be — an incredibly important part of Discovery's history," said Rich Ross, group president of Discovery Channel, Animal Planet and Science Channel. "Adam and Jamie are enormous talents who have brought learning and science to the forefront of this network, and their legacy will continue to live on over at Science Channel. The 'Mythbusters' library will be moving over to Discovery's sister network in 2016, where I know audiences new and old alike will be able to experience and learn with Adam and Jamie and the rest of the 'Mythbusters' family."
I guess we'll just have to try it at home now.

Exactly: except it got to the point where they sometimes seemed to just give up after a bit and go to the explosion...
"Maybe busted (which means we couldn't really care to test it further), now lets go blow it up!!! WOO HOO!"
It looked to me like if they really were interested, they'd bust the hell out of it to see which way the hammer fell: if not, they'd half-heart it, then explosions.
