MythBusters Revival on Science Channel


There have now been six new episodes (so far not listed here)
They are all classed by the science channel as being Season 20.

https://www.sciencechannel.com/tv-shows/mythbusters-on-science/

Episode 1 : Heads Will Roll
Episode 2 : Chimney Cannon
Episode 3 : Earthquake Water Heater
Episode 4 : Rock 'n' Roll Road Rage
Episode 5 : Invisible Assassins
Episode 6 : Dead Body Double

The listings for new episodes might be accurate but a quick check of previous seasons shows some horrible inaccuracies in dates, season numbering and episode titles. The dates and episode titles used in this article were sourced from Discovery Channel so we know they're correct. --AussieLegend () 04:26, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

How the science channel lists previous episodes isnt really that relevant, there wasnt any proposal to change them. What is relevant here is the new episodes - which need adding to the Episode List, and they are as listed correctly above (Paul). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.16.80.198 (talk) 00:00, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Actually it is relevant as Science Channel is listing the new episodes as season 20, while we only have 14 seasons listed. The missing seasons need to be explained. --AussieLegend () 12:54, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Looks like someone already added them, simply classed as 2017.

It seemed reasonable at the time when I did it. If there is consensus to change it, go right ahead. I have only seen the first two episodes with the new hosts, so that is as far as I have gotten so far with details. I hope to add the others as time allows. Nutster (talk) 20:31, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
Mybusters episode numbering seems to change from list to list (Amazon for example lists 19 seasons) so maybe just by year is best. The next three new ones (for 2018) appear to be ;
7. Fire Arrow vs. Gas Tank (4th Jan)
8. Pane in the Glass (11th Jan)
9. Wild Wild West (18th Jan) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.16.80.198 (talkcontribs) 15:25, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
MythBusters numbering has been an issue for many years. That's why we decided to use the official episode guide but even that was problematic. See the discussion below. --AussieLegend () 16:01, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

2017/2018 Season : Atm, I am adding the current episodes to the "2017" list as they are part of the same new season that started in Nov 2017 (set to be 14 eps in total according to the original press release) - it seemed wrong [to me] to create a separate 2018 season for them, especially as its likely a separate "proper" 2018 season will likely follow later in the year. Does this seem ok to the more experienced here ?

I think "The Search" episodes must be included in episode list, because it's part of "Mytbusters" and have same overall episode numbering - episodes 1-8 of "The Search" are 270-277 episodes of "Mythbusters" Lado85 (talk) 19:04, 6 December 2018 (UTC)

This doesn't make sense. As is explained at MythBusters: The Search, MythBusters: The Search is a reality competition aimed at finding hosts for the new version of the program. It is a spinoff from MythBusters, not a season of MythBusters itself. --AussieLegend () 04:32, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
