My sister loves this show. It is kinda cool. Some things I would have never thought to test, though.

The science teacher I work with gives extra credit to the kids if they watch an episode and fill out a worksheet explaining how the scientific method is used in the experiment. The kids love it.
I think they need to go back and try the whole plane taking off from a treadmill thing again. I still don't buy that one.

I think you need to have your science teacher friend give you a quick rundown on physics.

its really easy to understand. the wheels are just there and offer no propulsion. the planes engine is not hindered by the ground...the wheels just go twice as fast and the plane takes off...i can't fathom why thats hard to explain...
