From five of them I like House MD very much. It is such a good show to watch on television. I really like this show. The story and the cast of this show is also wonderful.

[...] few days ago, I was doing some channel surfing on TV when I came across an interesting episode of Mythbusters on the Discovery Channel. This is already one of my favorite shows, but I must confess that I have yet to see every episode. [...]

Mythbusters and House Hunters are some of my faves as well. I have a fascination with other people’s houses and how people decorate and shows like House Hunters, Property Virgins and even MTV Cribs have always interested me.

There’s a show called Sports Science that is pretty interesting. I believe it comes on Fox Sports Network here. I can usually get drawn into some of those half hour forensic shows as well, but I don’t make it a habit to tune in regularly.

Weapons will kill much faster in a fight than bare hands. I always look for some type of weapon laying around if I have to defend myself. I have weapons at home within a step or two in each room to protect my family. While these may not be conventional weapons, they are the first thing I would grab before taking anyone on in a fight and I have over 15 years martial arts and MMA training.

I watch Mythbusters once in a while. It’s not my favorite. I also watch House with my wife and like it a lot for the intense drama of the mystery.

My favorite would be The Deadliest Warrior because I’m a martial artist and love that type of thing. It actually helps me learn more about strategy.

I liked the episode of “Mythbusters” where they were testing whether elephants were afraid of mice.

While interesting, the Deadliest Warrior isn’t necessarily educational. The programmer bias when entering weapons into the computer tends to influence the results in that direction.

Mythbusters, however, is my favourite show on TV. Highly recommend watching the hot water heater episode (testing what happens to a hot water heater with safety measures disabled) and the episode where Adam tries to run on the treadmill while drunk

Used to watch “The Dog Whisperer” when the Chihuahua was younger. His techniques don’t seem to work on chihuahuas. Sure, they do on the show, but when you try it for real, the chihuahuas look at you like you’re crazy.

I occasionally watch “Mythbusters” too. “Time Warp” is another interesting one to watch.
