If you’ve been feeling a curious explosion-less void in your mighty chests as of late, ever since ‘MythBusters‘ officially aired its final episode back in March, you won’t have to wait very long to fill it with wanton destruction in the name of science once again.
The build team is coming back together! @ToryBelleci, @KariByron, @grantimahara on a @netflix original: #TheWhiteRabbitProject coming Dec 9!

The series, according to Deadline, sounds reasonably similar in concept to ‘MythBusters,’ though it is not a direct or official spin-off of the show.
“The three head down the rabbit hole to investigate weird and wonderful events from pop culture, science and history. Under their microscope are topics as diverse as jailbreaks, superpower technology, heists and crazy world war two weapons. In each episode the hosts immerse themselves in experiments, builds and tests as they sleuth the truth behind these and other well googled themes.”
Byron was at pains to point out that there will be no “busting of myths” in this new series, presumably because that’s a trademarked term and as such they’ll have to come up with an entirely different catchy phrase to label any large-scale science experiments that operate on a pass/fail basis.
Contrary to Internet chatter there will be no “busting of myths” on the #WhiteRabbitProject for @grantimahara @ToryBelleci & my new show
