I don't think I'd watch this if it weren't for the hosts

Same here. For many segments, or whole episodes, there's really nothing experience or test, such as the escapes from justice. I want to actual experiments, not re-enactments.

I'm probably falling for it because of the hosts as well. If not for them, I wouldn't be halfway through the season. However, this is the way almost every Netflix original operates. It doesn't matter if it's good, the audience is watching because of knows figures or an IP. There is shockingly little originality in these Netflix series.
