MythBusters: Collection 9

Great Collection
This new Mythbusters Collection set consists of eight episodes from season 7 on two dvds, and two episodes that I'm guessing are from season 8. (Not surprising, as the last two collections were episodes from season 7). In fact, if you were to buy Season Seven from the Discovery store (as I did), the eight episodes would be on discs five & six of that set. The only difference between the discs is the order the episodes are in and the 'Mythbusters Top 25 Moments' special from disc 6 (season 7) is not included. The discs that come in the Mythbusters Collection 9 set have subtitles, something the season set doesn't have. I find it really strange that the season set doesn't have subtitles. The screen image is anamorphic widescreen - so it fills the whole screen.

Episode List
* Disc One:
* Reverse Engineering

Disc Two:
* Green Hornet Special

Good collection for review
With they, The Discovery Channel, would get the entire season on DVD. The collections do have a good set on episodes.

Another Mythbuster collection, that says it all.
This is collection nine of the long running Mythbuster series. Nothing really to say at this point. Either you like Mythbusters, in which case this is just another in a solid line of dvds, or you don't and I am not sure why you are reading this.

That said, if you don't know Mythbusters, I would recommending starting from Collection 1, but 9 isn't a bad jumping off point. It is a nice mix of varying myths from silly myths like "table cloth chaos", to more serious myths like "inverted underwater car", and even the movie special episode for "the green hornet". A nice blend to get a feel for the series.

Worth a buy, imo... but I'm bias, I own the other collections already.
