I like BS... great show. As far as providing a chance for rebuttals, I don't think they leave much room for rebuttal on many of their shows. Example: After 3 feng shui experts rearrange a house completely differently, call it a "science", and completely (unknowingly) contradict each other, how could they possibly give a rebuttal? I think P&T demonstrated extremely well that many (they didn't prove all) of the people selling feng shui services are frauds just trying to take your money.

Ditto the bottled water.

And, the environmentalists signing petitions banning dihydrogen monoxide were hilarious. (dihydrogen monoxide is used heavily by the plastics and other chemical manufacturers - DHO is the MAIN component of acid rain.) DHO leads to erosion. DHO kills hundreds of people each year from inhalation. DHO causes more property loss than fires and earthquakes combined! And, the environmentalists therefore agree to ban its use. DHO = water.

That is what's so great about their show. They look at an issue objectively and let the idiots bury themselves. All they do is comment on the facts.

Be prepared. If you have a pet issue, you may be offended. Left or right, they don't care. If it's bullsh!t and you believe it... they'll piss you off.
