Why Myth Busters' Adam Savage Won't Work With Jamie Hyneman Anymore

MythBusters ran for 14 seasons and was a huge hit. So will Adam Savage work with co-host Jamie Hyneman again?

Two adults who do not care for each other but act professional to get the job done. Nothing wrong with that.

[Excelray]

I remember Adam saying how he doesn't get along with Jamie but will trust his life/safety to him.

[juanposada]

What? I'm dreaming? A video that actually fits with the tittle? Like... No intro/outro? No "bla bla bla"? No 10min long video explaining why they broke up? This is what i call a premium service, 10/10, like and sub

[barryallenflash]

THIS is a perfect example of how human beings should act towards each other. They don't have to like each other to get along, but they do "get along" and do so professionally.

[Bradyvilleboy]

If I had been a better kid, they would still be together.

[Mark]

I wish most people could be this mature about their emotions.

[Erufailon]

It's like realising your parents are only still married because of you...

[Vivaslogenal]

sound exactly like an engineer's relationship with another engineer

[klever]

He sounds like divorced parent after 30 years of bad marriage that resulted in a couple of wonderful kids.

[patchesdf]

What Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman are doing is actually a mark of maturity. That you can disagree with someone or find them disagreeable and still not only still manage to function together, but do remarkable things together. The world can learn a lot from this relationship.

[renragged]

That's too bad... but its good to be honest about it.

[Encourageable]

Good response honestly. Didn’t throw him under the bus. Class act.

[jugglergirlkm]

That was perfectly honest, truthful, and straightforward. I have immense respect for that. After all, we don't have to like everyone and admitting that you don't like someone without blame or hate is a very mature, intelligent thing to do.

[doublestrokeroll]

Too many parents teach their kids the idea they have to like everyone. Kids need to be taught that they don't have to like everyone but they need to show respect, especially to people they don't "get along" with.

[jlogan]

Adam and Jamie are a textbook definition of respect and professionalism bc even if they don't actually like each other you can tell they can work together to get a job done and that they legit care for each other's safety and we'll being

The most genuine show host friendship I have ever seen was Top Gear. When Jeremy got fired, James and Richard decided they would rather quit and lose a million dollar salary than abandon a friendship.

[ManaMastery]

Still, managing to go 14 seasons hosting a show with someone you don't really get along with is pretty impressive.

[mr.mediocregamer]

I heard they were both fighting over who gets to keep Grant after the divorce.

[TheNightWatcher]

Even more sad, the reason Adam Savage signed on for the show was because Jamie Hyneman asked him to co-host with him because Jamie felt he’d make the show too boring if he did it by himself.

[HakuPanther]

I was in a myth (airplane boarding) and I witnessed their dynamic in person. Jamie was out of the way, never interacted and was barely seen. Adam was around talking to us and being the extrovert he is. There is absolutely professional respect, but i think they dont get along on a personal level. Its ok not to like everyone you work with, even if you work with them well.
