    Contrary to what the other reviewer says after he obviously spent some time with wiki and going into a whole dialog about french pronunciations, the guy in the show went into a whole whiteboard plot about "Frenel" lenses, misspelled it and wrote frenel and mispronounced it during the whiteboard and their brainstorm session.. spend some time watching the show and you'll understand that some of us actual smart people don't need to wiki a pronunciation of "fray-nel" as the guys writing frenel and pronouncing "freh-nel" throughout the episode.Sometimes trying so hard to be smart (and right) shows ones own stupidity and thusly reinforcing this shows target audience image..Otherwise, a poorly produced show, it has so many poorly executed theories and plots that it is actually probably not a good idea to let kids watch it lest they learn incorrect scientific theories and believe them to be true.Waste of a good network time slot.

    I just saw the episode in which they try to stop a car within 30m, and it's very disappointing.They just think about a solution that might work. And then, without thorough analysis, put it on the car. Their rickety constructions simply fail to do what they were designed for... And it could've all been calculated beforehand. Also, they make false statements like E = mv^2, that energy has a direction, and that there are other options than friction to stop the car safely.I really can't say much more for this show, other than "please discovery, get this junk off".

    OK,this is not the best science show out there, but it's upbeat, funny, and great to watch with the kiddo's. The guys seem to have fun, which is the best part of both the show and science. It's also a nice change from the well known Mythbusters(we know they're gonna blow something up). These guys don't have an unlimited budget and that brings the things they do down to earth. My ever-so-bored nephew loved the volcano segment. The go-cart was pretty cool too. Yeah, they say silly things like normal people do but I didn't think they were dumb or purposefully unsafe. They were just two guys doing science stuff in their buddy's shop. All in all it made us laugh and that's good thing.

    These guys are definitely not smart. They seem to know nothing about science or cars or common sense for that matter. Several times they called a "fresnel" lens a "frenel" lens. Sorry guys, no such thing. Then, they are going to power slide a car to parallel park. What they were doing was an e-brake skid, nothing more. My 5 year old daughter knows how to do that! A power slide is akin to a drift. After watching one show, I can tell you these guys can't drift. These guys could screw up a wet dream! If you are completely clueless like these guys, you may find it entertaining. On the other hand, if you are any smarter than a doorknob, this show will make you hope they are sterile and can't procreate.
