Seven reasons I adore Mythbusters

1. It's a great blend of creativity and science. Even though their on camera problem solving might be slightly staged, its still great to find out how they get to the answers. They explain science in a non-pretentious way.
2. They are very safety minded. I worry.
   
3. They unabashedly geeks and quite proud of it.
4. Explosions. I think I have always liked the huge explosions but never cared for the sophomoric plots and acting of the action flick genre. Mythbusters gives me the explosions I really crave. And they always add the oomph factor to it to make the explosions bigger and better. Fire good.
5. Kari does not shy away from the manual labor of things. She is slightly girly, but never shies away from getting dirty. You can tell she brings a little of the cupcake factor for the men (or anyone attracted to women that is), but she has the brain muscle to back that up.
6. The people on the show are all about good feedback -- and they congratulate their successes. I know, I had to make science warm and fuzzy somehow.
   
7. I am in love with Adam Savage. So much so that I find myself giggling like I did in Math class with my 8th grade crush. Horn rimmed glasses (oh the glasses!), the occasional Indiana Jones hat, goofy, creative, good with his hands, great smile, adorable freckles, slight fearlessness, funny voices... I swoon.
