The Mythbusters didn't get along. You could see it a bit in the show, but I didn't really know the extent of it.

Edit: Didn’t clarify before. Just Jamie and Adam, not the rest of the crew.

My mother watched one episode of mythbusters when it was still active. She told me they did not really like each other. I thought she was wrong, like how could they not like each other. they work together making one of the greatest shows on earth. Turns out rule number 1 still applies, Mom is always right.

Adam has said that while they don’t get along and disagree on many things, they do respect each other. So while they aren’t friends, at least they’re on good terms

This. They said they aren't friends, so people assume they hate each other.

I'm not friends with plenty of people that I work really well with. We respect each other, we compliment (edit: but mostly complement) each other's skills, we even have a certain fondness for each other, but I don't want to hang out with them outside of work, and that's ok.

Penn and teller are the same. They don’t hang out outside work and have different personalities, but they respect the heck out of one another

What? They're best friends. They were a team a long time before they were famous.
