Pogromcy mitów, czyli dlaczego „zapisywanie rezultatów [nie] jest jedyną różnicą pomiędzy zabawą a nauką”
MythBusters, or Why “the Only Difference Between Screwing Around and Science Is Writing It down"

Summary/Abstract: This article focuses on the popular-science programme MythBusters to illustrate the various ways in which it employs science. On the basis of my analysis of these, I, first, argue that the popculture of the early twenty-first century generates products in which multiple uses of scientific activity are a standard. Second, it is also substantiated that this multiplication of the uses of science translates into it being forfeited in favour of entertainment even in broadcasts that are, or at least seem, targeted at it.
