Engineers Against Smash Lab
I am an engineering student and we get together to watch this show every week. We sit around yell at them for never using actual science and just using horribly stupid demos to do something any self-respecting engineer would do on the computer or with something that would model the system much more accurately.
I was really looking forward to this show, as I love mythbusters, but I always wish there was more of a science content in it and I hoped that Smash Lab would provide such an outlet. Now, I sit here, wondering how many calculations actually went into this, rather than lame guess/check methods which waste my time and their time.
I have had the thought that the producers are forcing these lame demos and experiments down the throats of respectable engineers (with the exception of the woman, who could make a free-body diagram of a simple weight force). If this is true, then they shouldn't call themselves engineers, but rather corporate whores who will blindly follow the producers, while laughing in the name of real engineers. Either way, this show gives engineers a bad name.
