My kind of "reality" TV show tends more to the DIY genre. There are two notable exceptions and both can be found on the Discovery Channel, Dirty Jobs and Mythbusters. Mythbusters takes on urban legends, actual myths, rumors, wives' tales, you name it. Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman do more than explain how something may or may not be scientifically possible. Through trial and error they actually demonstrate it. It's a cool show.Sometimes I forget whether a myth was confirmed, plausible or busted ... OK, sometimes I forget the actual myths themselves. Turns out Wikipedia contributors are keeping up-to-date on it all (of course, expect spoilers).
