'Mythbusters' Team Returns in 'White Rabbit Project'

The decision to get rid of some of the most beloved members of the MythBusters cast during the series' final season arguably sealed the fate of the struggling show. Fans who haven't yet forgiven the series for that move are getting some measure of relief with the release this month of White Rabbit Project on Netflix. The series reunites Kari Byron, Tory Belleci, and Grant Imahara, and they'll be doing a lot of the same things they used to do on Mythbusters.

In White Rabbit Project, the trio will participate in segments that use experiments, tests, and construction projects to illustrate topics such as prison breaks, weaponry, and sensational crimes. Those topics will sound familiar to Mythbusters fans, since they're the kinds of topics that the trio investigated on that show, too.

Although the show will have a different format and production style than Mythbusters - original hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman are not involved in this project, and the show is not officially related to Mythbusters - the first trailer for White Rabbit Project makes it clear that the series will suffer no shortage of the guns, explosions, and wacky humor that have been the trademarks of Byron, Belleci and Imahara.

The complete first season of White Rabbit Project will be available on Netflix beginning December 9.
