Head Rush on Science Channel

[bicker]

Kari Byron is a born tinkerer and explorer. By the age of 5, she was experimenting on her sister, and using her dolls as crash test dummies. Luckily for her parents, they always caught her in time — right before her little sister took a ride down a laundry chute or recruited her for an "around-the-world" attempt on the playground swings.

Kari is thrilled to host "Head Rush," an all new, one-hour, commercial-free program on Science Channel, made for middle-school students, but fun for the curious kid of any age. Her aim is to inspire and excite us about the wonders of science and show science at work in our everyday lives. No subject will go unexplored! Kari dives into mathematics, science, technology, engineering, natural history and space with hands-on experiments, video shorts, viewer questions and answers, games, and special celebrity visits from other members of the Discovery TV family.

Watch Head Rush Monday-Friday at 4 PM and Saturday mornings from 7-9 AM!

Sounds like it'll be a blast, and any extra doses of Mythbusters we can get are surely a good thing.

DH has a huge crush on Kari. This will make him very happy.

I know the show will be mostly retreads of Mythbusters segments, but I think it'll be very interesting to see what Kari does with the filler segments she'll be adding in.

I'm a big Mythbuster fan, but with this and the "Buster's Cut" episodes (re-editing of old shows), they may be on the up ramp towards the shark tank.

I passed on the Buster's Cut stuff. I think this is different. It think they're planning on Kari doing a lot of filler between the clips from Mythbusters. That filler will be the attraction of Head Rush.
