Mythbusters Ending After Next Season (ew.com)
An anonymous reader writes: Entertainment Weekly is just one of many reporting that next season will be the last for the long-running show Mythbusters. EW reports: "The pioneering reality series, one of cable's longest-running shows, will stage its final gonzo experiment during next year's 14th season after 248 episodes and 2,950 experiments. But there is some upside: Stars Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman have secretly known the end was coming all year and have been crafting an explosive final run for the seven-time Emmy-nominated series. 'It was my greatest fear that Mythbusters would just stop and we wouldn't be able to do proper final episodes,' Savage tells EW. 'So whether it's myths about human behavior or car stories or explosion stories, we tried to find the most awesome example of each category and build on our past history.'"
+1.
One thing is bugging me... 2,950 experiments would be an average of 11 experiments per episode... I don't quite remember there being that many.
Maybe you should do some research and report back on how many experiments actually made it to air. After all you wouldn't want this myth of 11 experiments per show to go untested.
I am Slashdot. Are you Slashdot as well?
That show was dominated by cisgender white males promoting their privileged and aggressive toxic behavior. I am glad it is dead. Top Gear needs to go too!
Feh...
Kari never toted natural hair color.
Wait...Kari had hair? I wasn't looking at the top of her head apparently.
Left MS Windows for Linux Mint and never looked back!

That'd make a great finale - test whether it actually is possible to jump over a shark.
