SF-Based 'MythBusters' Drops 3 Co-Hosts, Returns To Original Format

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) - The popular science and engineering show "MytheBusters" will be without three popular co-hosts going forward.

In a video announcement Thursday on Discovery Channel website, hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman confirmed that longtime co-hosts Kari Byron, Grant Imahara, and Tory Belleci will no longer appear on the show.

"We're gonna take a brief moment to thank you guys for your incredible work over the last 10 years," Savage said in the video. Here's the full clip:
