Live Poll: Face-Off: 'MythBusters' vs. 'Penn & Teller: Bullshit!'
Scientific skepticism draws a line in between science and pseudoscience by demanding testing proof for paranormal claims, by using critical thinking and scientific methods.
These productions aim to debunk pseudoscientific ideas, paranormal beliefs, urban legends and misconceptions.
Which is your favorite skeptical and "debunking" TV series?

Easily Mythbusters. Penn & Teller: BS was way too unnecessarily libertarian to a fault.

I prefer the libertarians, but without a doubt Mythbusters is very important for shedding insights into the errors of many somewhat popular conspiracy allegations. I should suggest for consideration, Roger Horton's work on Cracked. He exposes a lot of the delusions that people don't even realize that they have in regards to consumption of industrial products/services as an inherent part of consumerism.

FYC:
Adam Ruins Everything (2015-2019) I can't stand the guy and I have the same problem with his debunking style show as Penn & Teller: BS. He's on the same wavelength as Penn.
If not, then this one is at least a honorable or dishonorable mention.
And at least Penn & Teller have their magic shows that are entertaining and often enlightening.
