Smug, ignorant hipster douchebag "ruins" things by pointing out how things are "bad" and "don't make sense," which in virtually every case just comes down to him being too dumb and/or too unwilling to take an objective look at it. This guy's the reason I stopped watching College Humor several years ago.

If you don't like facts, this isn't your show. This show has leading experts in the field that is being discussed as guests on the show. For every fact there is the resource the writers took it from put up right on the screen so you can check it yourself. There isn't any Wikipedia in sight. They use scientific papers & medical journals. If you hate this, I'd imagine you are the same type that covers their ears when they encounter a fact that conflicts with your world view. 15 out of the last 16 years have been the hottest on record, storms are stronger & more frequent & sea levels are SEVERAL inches higher than they used to be but "climate change doesn't exist & is leftist propaganda" (hands covering ears "lalalalala...I don't hear you"). Those kind of people will HATE this show. I've learned a lot though & I love this show. There isn't another like it. Have a great day!
