Top 10 Programs Broadcast by Discovery Channel

The Top Ten
1 Planet Earth

It was the most expensive nature documentary series ever commissioned by the BBC and the first to be filmed in high definition.

2 MythBusters

MythBusters is the greatest show in existence! I am in love with Grant! I really wish that Discovery would stop replaying the same episodes over and over again. I want to see some episodes from the earlier seasons that I missed.

My favorite is when they do ancient weapons and armor myths. My favorite myth of all time is paper armor. Season 10 starts tomorrow!

I love when they use the Rocket-Sled. The first time I saw them use it, my first thought was, "My life is complete."

MythBusters is the greatest show!

3 BrainGames
4 Deadliest Catch

I have never missed one episode. I even watched it when I was in Jamaica. I love it! It's been fun seeing all the great captains and crews battle their way through the merciless Bering Sea.

I miss Phil, and I hope Jake gets the help he needs. Also, Eliot. My all-time favorite program.

Thank you, Discovery.
Jeri Lopresti

This show is awesome! It's too bad that Captain Phil Harris died.

5 Bush People

I really love this show. I love this family, and I would love to live there with them. I don't care what people say. I have watched the show since episode 1, and I will be greatly disappointed if it is not continued.

I love The Discovery Channel, but I hate when we get invested in a show, and then it suddenly disappears. You have so many shows that we have grown to love, and we feel like the people in each one are a part of our lives.

Just like the new show Raised Wild, it is a great new one, and I love all the beautiful scenery. Please keep all the shows going. Thank you.

6 Man vs. Wild

Bear Grylls presents this show as a very friendly host. It feels like we are there with him - climbing the mountain, paddling the river, building camp ourselves.

This show deserves to be the best show ever. If there is no Man vs. Wild, there is no Discovery. Discovery needs Bear Grylls far more than Bear Grylls needs Discovery. If they stop showing Man vs. Wild, I will stop watching Discovery altogether.

The scenery of the islands, hills, and ocean is just a dream.

The fact that there are more than a dozen shows by Bear Grylls on Discovery tells us how famous Bear Grylls is on the channel.

7 Rocket Science
8 Bad Universe
9 Gold Rush

This is the most fantastic series I have seen in my whole life.

All the mistakes and every gold weight/count - you truly feel for the guys. Both seasons 3 and 4 were killers. Thank you very much for many good hours!

Greetings from Norway!

Great show. I've been watching since Season 1. It shows us how hard it is to mine for gold and reap the rewards.

Shows us that many people work hard to gain wealth, and in most cases, the rewards are there. Imagination and hard work are the focus. Thanks, Al.

10 The FBI Files

The show described actual FBI cases, with dramatic reenactments and interviews with agents and forensic scientists who worked in the investigations.

The Contenders
11 Street Outlaws

It is the only reality show that still holds up its reality part. Ninety-nine percent of the other shows seem to be an hour of nonsense!

This is the best show ever, and I haven't missed an episode since the beginning. Great job!

Just because we're dumbasses doesn't mean you can be too. Don't do any of the things we do at home!

12 License to Drill
13 Storm Chasers

Produced by Original Media, the program follows several teams of storm chasers as they attempt to intercept tornadoes in Tornado Alley in the United States.

Love how they get very in-depth and how they're not always in one area.

It's a shame they took it off the air. Best show that was on Discovery.

14 Breakout
15 Troy
16 Air Crash Investigation
17 Diagnosis: Unknown
18 Science Of Stupid

A Filipino was a host of this show? Enough said.

19 Diggers
20 Alaska: The Last Frontier

You should at least get the title correct. It should read Alaska: The Last Frontier. One of the greatest shows on Discovery.

When you kill an animal for sustenance, don't thank the animals - they wanted to live just like you. Instead, thank the Creator who made you in His image above all animals... laughably stupid.

21 Brew Masters

The show focused on Sam Calagione, the founder and head of Dogfish Head Brewery, and his staff as they scoured the world for new, ancient, and imaginative inspirations for beers.

22 How It's Made
23 Atlas

The show focuses on the cultural, sociological, and natural aspects of various countries by exploring their different peoples, traditions, and lands.

24 Deadly Dilemma's
25 Naked And Afraid

You see the depth of human compassion and strength against tremendous odds.

Really creative how they invent supplies to use from nature. It shows how much they really want this! Most of them, at least.

I love this show. Binge-watching!
