  • It’s really weird rewatching MythBusters at this point, because the show is so heavily structured around ad breaks. It starts with a teaser that includes clips of moments that will happen in the show, then it has an overview of the myths, then it splits into the A myths and the B myths. Each of these gets touched on, then there’s a preview of what will happen in the next segment after the ad, then there’s the implied break, then there’s a review of what happened before the break, then there’s a new piece… it’s constantly revisiting and excerpting things to blow up about 15 minutes of content into a 50-minute show.

    Back then it all seemed so normal…
