Kari, Tory and Grant leaving Mythbusters
TV News | Aug 22nd, 2014
I love watching Mythbusters, especially marathons on the weekends. Unfortunately, Adam and Jamie announced on the show last night that Kari Byron, Tory Belleci, and Grant Imahara are leaving the show. The show is going in a new (old) direction and will just focus on Adam and Jamie from now on. Budget cuts? The first season was just like that and then they added in the M7 build team to spice things up. Obviously I’m disappointed in this news since the trio had a lot of fun experiments and stuff to bust on the show. Perhaps they will break off and do their own science oriented show by themselves?
Kari, Tory and Grant thanked their fans on Twitter last night as well:
After a decade of the Mythbusters, we are no longer with the show. Thank you to all the fans who have supported us.

The show is taking a new direction. It was an amazing run. I learned so much about myself and the world. I love you all @MythBusters

I am sad for an ending but there will be exciting new adventures for us.

Thanks @MythBusters for allowing us to teach science in a whole new way. Also, explosions. Now, on to the next adventure!

It's been an amazing ride for 10 years! We couldn't have done it without you guys. You're the best fans anyone could wish for. Thank you
