MythBusters Star Wars Special

The MythBusters Star Wars Special is the season premiere of the 2014 season of the Discovery Channel science entertainment show testing urban legends, old wives' tales, proverbs, film scenes and more. Set in and around San Francisco, where the show's cast is based at M5 Industries Inc., it featured the cast – including four who had worked on Star Wars films, were Industrial Light & Magic alumni or both in original co-hosts Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage and Build Team members Grant Imahara and Tory Belleci – testing three scenes from the movies, eventually choosing one from each original trilogy installment. A later episode hosted by Savage and Hyneman featured prequel trilogy myths.
