Mythbusters - Kari's Temporary Replacement

[Ptrope]

Kari is "unconventionaly" hot, though. And her hotness is cranked up by her geek-interests.

This new girl -just from that picture of her in the bio- strikes me as "conventionaly hot."

Give me unconventional any day.

You'll get it - I've seen Jessi many times on Extreme 4x4, and there's nothing 'conventional' about her - she's a stick of dynamite stuffed into a firecracker. She's not as hot as Kari, IMHO, but she'll also never be mistaken for a vapid fashion model, either, even if she never speaks.

She was there and seen but saying she was "prominent" (other than the shot of her ass) is probably a little extreme.

Hey, it's been six and a half years since that episode came out and you immediately recognized exactly what scene I was talking about. I'd call that prominent. Not a large role, but a highly memorable one. Tell me, what else do you recall about that particular episode?

I've that episode on DVD. I recall Adam going into a costume shop to buy the latex-foam for the ass and even trying on a an "alien butt-head" prosthetic.

Kari appeared intermittently from the very first pilot episode onward, so I'm not sure what you mean by "when she was introduced."

When the second build team was made official and she got more than the odd minute or two of airtime.

^Kari appeared intermittently from the very first pilot episode onward, so I'm not sure what you mean by "when she was introduced."

She was little more than a glorified "extra" there.

And, to many's recolection, she was most prominently featured in the "Airline Toilet Seat" episode when she was in the flesh-toned bodysuit getting her ass photographed.

Her arse wasn't photographed - it was use for a mold.

Which led her to joke that she was hired for her butt.

If it wasn't photographed how did I see it?

cos it was filmed/recorded

Which is a form of photography.

have to admit I've always thought photography related to still pictures not moving.

 

[Christopher]

^"Photography" simply means "drawing with light." Any means of capturing and reproducing images by means of a light-sensitive substrate or device is a form of photography. Why do you think "still photography" is called that? Because it's not the only form of photography there is.

I really wish they had consulted me about this first.

 

[MacWin]

Hmmm, yeah last year she had hurt her back on Extreme 4x4 and was off for a while and then all of a sudden just disappeared all together, I had wondered what happened to her wether she just left or got canned.

It's highly unlikely that you were in the running for the job. I'm sorry to break it to you this way, but that's just the way it is.

Gee - I hadn't even thought about being a replacement. I should have had that opportunity, too. I just thought they should ask me what I wanted Kari to do. Maybe she could at least do a pop-in every now and then. Any pregnancy myths they want to knock out while they have someone handy?

 

[Hermiod]

^You see, I suggested that on Twitter to Grant Imahara. Kari's baby was actually late, so I suggested trying various myths about things that help bring on labour.

 

[Christopher]

^Right, like Kari would agree to have experimental and unverified techniques tested on herself and her own baby. Dedication to Mythbusting only goes so far...

Adam would do it.

 

[Christopher]

^If it were just him, maybe. If it were his child? Hell, no. Even aside from the fact that it would probably be illegal to experiment on a baby like that. And no way would the show's insurance company allow it.

Besides, Mythbusting is Kari's job, not her life. People deserve to have a personal life without their work intruding.

 

[Hermiod]

^Okay, I've tried to make it clear I was joking but I don't think it's worked.

Didn't you get the memo?

 

[ambessalion]

kari should stay...i'm sure with the money she get's paid, she can afford a nani...

i think jessi was an intern a few years ago (i think she was one of the 2 chicks that won that viewer's contest...)
