How come they weren’t sued for essentially lying. Also the didn’t even get on the bus. This show is to Science what the WWE is to wrestling. You guys are morons for thinking this is real

They didn't have to take the bus. They just had to think that they were taking the bus. As to why people watch it is because like WWE it is entertaining. Yes people could find lectures online about whatever topic but that lecture would not end in something getting blown up

What a stunning and brave takedown of a show that ended 7 years ago.
My understanding is that polygraph test results are generally not admissable in court, although there may be some American states that allow them.
Of course IMHO the true use of a polygraph test is to frighten and bully the test subject into confession.

Also myth busters is old now. Alot has changed/come to be known. Things that used to be a good idea or best practice get replaced over time.

Sued by who? And for what exactly? Civil court cases require at least perceived damages to a specific party who would then file the suit. Should reality shows be sued for being at least partly scripted? If you don’t like the show you can just not watch dude, you made this same sort of post 2 weeks ago.
