Anyone else watching this?

I'm a big Mythbusters fan, so I decided to stay afterwards when this show premiered and watch this new show, and see what it's all about. I wasn't expecting much, which is likely why I was pleasantly surprised. Three episodes later, and I am still watching. Not a bad investment if you have a DVR, in my opinion. Sully and Billy Mays' interaction is also pretty funny a lot of times.

I was a bit surprised that Bill May's seems like such a meglamaniac. I wasn't expecting that at all.
 
I'm not really sure why I keep watching, other than the fact it's amusing to see how much of a *****e Billy Mays comes off as. The inventions are cool to see as well.

Which reminds me: Did anyone else notice the same "inventor" dude, who tries to be over-the-top in his presentation in imitation of Billy, show up again in the 3rd episode? In the first episode, he was pitching the stupid glasses that flashes lights in your eyes if you nod-off while driving, and this time, he was trying to sell the guys on his dual-filament light bulb which Sully promptly and correctly noted has been invented already.

Mays seems to be a bit stuck on himself. :o Oh, and that chick with the floor mopper thingy was hot. :grin:
 
Billy Mays seems like such a *****e, it's hilarious to me.
