‘MythBusters’ to say goodbye in 2016

 After conducting 2,950 experiments, busting 1,050 myths and creating 900 entertaining explosions, Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman will have to say goodbye to 'MythBusters'.

Entertainment Weekly confirmed the news with the Mythbusters stars will wrap the upcoming 14th season as the Discovery Channel's last.

"Making MythBusters has fundamentally and irrevocably altered the way I think as a person, as an artist and as a scientist," Savage said. "I'm glad for the chance to say goodbye with some of the best television we've ever made. I will miss making this show."

"I never dreamed we would be on television at all, much less for such a long time and with so much praise for keeping a thought-provoking show on the air. And best of all, we were able to do what we do and still have all our fingers and toes." Hyneman said.

" I'm concerned it will come off like I'm complaining about it. Certainly there are a lot of things I would have liked to have changed in that regard. I've been working in film behind the camera, and now in front of it, for over 30 years. And I understand filmmaking is a collaborate effort and has to be. There are always compromises, always give and take. But we are somewhat unique in that space. And the general way this was set up, and the way it had to be set up, is that around 50 percent of what we do is actual science and engineering. We had to do this daily dance of interacting with the camera and with production people who have totally different priorities about what's going on than I do. It's a difficult and unique process. The filmmakers often give priority to the results. I know some reality TV programs that present themselves as giving you something that's real when in reality it's totally contrived. Mythbusters is not at all that way. There are times when compromises have to be made that can be frustrating to somebody like myself who's a purist for the engineering and not in it for a desire to be on television. It's about building something I might not have access to otherwise. So it's understandable that I'd get frustrated when I get pulled in another direction." Hyneman said on Entertainment Weekly.

Savage and Hyneman ran the show by proving or disproving movie magic. Mythbusters also featured numerous celebrity guests like Seth Rogen, James Cameron, Aaron Paul, Vince Gilligan, Sophia Bush and President Barack Obama.

Mythbusters' new season will start on December 23 and ends on January 3.
