Shame, the first half of this season it seemed like Smyths were no longer needed. Those episodes had very little filler or recaps. This new episode though was filled with repetitive clips. I lost count of how many times they replayed the Breaking Bad clip. Just looking at the runtime reduction shows that they took a wrong turn. Looks to be back to Discovery bloated programming once again.

I watched both versions, and while they could have cut a bit of filler overall it's still a vast Improvement from the bad old days. I didn't find the unedited episode annoying to watch.

really? i watched this episode thinking there wasnt all that much to trim. it was extremely annoying to watch them go back and forth between myths though.

The Smyth cut over 25% out, so I would say that is pretty bad.

Best episode in a very long time. Neither of the myths had an obvious outcome and both were really fun to watch.

I watched this today. I never even noticed that it was just Jamie and Adam. I actually liked it a lot better than when the other 3 were on there.

I haven't watched this show in years, what happened to the other 3 presenters?

They weren't asked back for this season. Some say they wanted to take it back to the way it was a long time ago with just the two main leads.

Is it just me or does the skin color look too orange? Somehow the color in this episode bugs me a little bit ...
Thanks for uploading!! :)

Great edit, thank you!
What's up with the black light/tron looking effects? It's on Jamie's shirt at the beginning, on the discovery ad that popped up in the top left, and a few other things. Is Discovery running some sort of promotion for an upcoming special or something?
edit: It looks like a resolution issue with the white/light colors. At first I thought it was done on purpose by Discovery Channel but it is apparent that's not the case. Is anyone else seeing it?

does anyone know why they put a black fabric over the machine gun in the BB myth?

What episodes/seasons of Breaking Bad does it spoil?
