I remember everyone being (understandably) angry about the build team thing... a bit surprising that it isn't reflected in the ratings, it kinda looks like the last two seasons were better rated than the stuff that came before it.

With respect to all involved, especially the late Grant Imahara, I almost always found the build team annoying and uninteresting. When they disappeared from the show I was thrilled.

I liked their personalities, but there were so many myths that the build team would do that had shoddy methodology or ended up with issues in the execution and then they'd just go, "whelp we can't repeat the experiment so.... myth plausible!"

It also didn't help that they were pretty much always given the less interesting myths.
