Adam Savage is back with an all-new show, and he’ll be tweeting live during tonight’s MythBusters Jr. on The Science Channel. The episode is named “Battery Blast,” so we’re expecting there will be explodey explosions, and they’re mentioning “straight as an arrow” so, pointy weapons.
Here’s the pitch:
Six of the nation’s most talented kids join Adam Savage for MythBusters Jr. Together they will tackle myths ranging from driving, explosions, chemistry, physics, popular culture and more.
Watch the show, and follow Adam, live at 9pm ET/6pm PT, and if you can’t? Catch the program later.
I’ve seen it, and it’s unbelievably good. The kids are talented and smart as heck,
Adam is in his finest form ever, and I have never known anyone to work as hard at putting on a fun and science-centered production as these guys. Don’t miss it.
WATCH: MythBusters Jr., Science Channel (9 pm ET/6 pm PT).

In testing the "straight as an arrow" idiom, master archer Byron Ferguson attempts to use a longbow to shoot an arrow through 12 3-inch-diameter rings. (Keyword: "attempts.") #MythBustersJr: Battery Blast premieres Wednesday at 9p on @ScienceChannel and streaming on #SCIgo. pic.twitter.com/6TGGwVju93

Here’s how my new tattoo looks two days later. I used it during a build today, too! (For those who missed it, I’ve wanted this tattoo for years, but only got it this weekend. It has inches, centimeters and millimeters.) pic.twitter.com/xQ5dXogJnu

The drool to water ratio in this high-speed wet-dog shake is high. (Good grief.)
