Now...what reason is there to even watch the show?

[Robert A Cook PE]

Odd decision.

[cripplecreek]

When is the last time Jamie and Adam even worked with Carrie Tori, and Grant on camera?

[RJS1950]

Why indeed.

Eggs Ackley! I am in love with her!

[blackdog]

Oh great..........We are left with a bull-queer and a giggly biatch with middle age affliction. Nice show while it lasted.

[Husker24]

Strange indeed.

[Thorliveshere]

I know, my wife and I looked at each other in complete shock. At least you get some kind of warning through the rumor mills....

Shame on their part. Kari was a big draw for the young male audience. Seeing a babe using high-powered weapons... yes, please!

[Rockingham]

The near certain cause for the break is money. Successful TV shows often have to confront wildly escalating pay demands in their later years. Since Mythbusters has produced enough episodes to be a ripe candidate for syndication, there is or soon will be additional money to be had by the cast. The trick is to pry it away from the show’s owners and rights holders without getting pitched overboard.

[Drango]

It’s just money. Two high paid stars or 5? You do the math.

[Hetty_Fauxvert]

I thought this might be a hoax but I bounced over to Facebook and it seems it’s true. Sigh. Best comment from a poster, to the Discovery Channel: “Did you guys actually see the shark when you jumped it tonight?”

Impressed with some of the electronic stuff Grant Imahara came up with for the show, he does some neat work!

[NonValueAdded]

Keep the trio and can Adam and Jaime.

[SuziQ]

I wonder if the trio will be doing a spinoff show, or maybe just something for the Internet.

[minnesota_bound]

I remember they did a show with obama. He wanted them to redo a show they already did about mirrors setting fire to wooden ships. Maybe obama did not get enough of a warm welcome from these 3?

These 3 could easily start their own show.
BTW Grant Imahara plays Sulu in Star Trek fan movies. Does a pretty decent job of it.

Most likely they will have their own show. Besides, they never worked with the other two anyway.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

This announcement sounds like a swift hard kick out the door. If the show cared they would give the actors the first chance to have this news go out how and where the actors wanted. Doesn’t sound like a mutual split.

[Ted Grant]

It’s just a tv show.

[PapaBear3625]

Kari was hotter when she first started in 2003. She’s 39 now. Time to get some fresh eye-candy. Possibly the other two were let go to not make it seem like they were getting rid of just her.

[NoLibZone]

They be done then.
