I had never heard of Mythbusters until reading about it on here and I too have a season pass for it now. That is one problem with the Tivo I miss new shows because I skip the commercials.

One newer show I really like is The Venture Brothers on the cartoon network. It's kind of like a messed up version Jonny quest. The show was made by the same people that made The Tick if anyone remembers that show.

I will have to try The Alternative it sounds interesting.
