Discovery Channel (formerly The Discovery Channel) is an American satellite and cable TV channel (also delivered via IPTV, terrestrial television and internet television in other parts of the world), founded by John Hendricks and distributed by Discovery Communications. It is a publicly traded company run by CEO, David Zaslav. It provides documentary programming focused primarily on popular science, technology, and history. In the U.S., the programming for the main Discovery network is primarily focused on reality-based television themes, such as speculative investigation (with shows such as MythBusters, Unsolved History, and Best Evidence), automobiles, and occupations (Dirty Jobs and Deadliest Catch); it also features documentaries specifically aimed at families and younger audiences.

A popular annual feature is Shark Week.

The mythbusters showed this clip on flatulence (farts) that was banned by Discovery Channel. It is great! Updated: When this was filmed it was part of a science conference and Adam announced that this had been banned by the Discovery Channel. Since this time, it has aired and is no longer "banned".

Many thanks to Jeff & the whole Time Warp crew. Especially those in post production... with 13 hours of footage, they could have mashed together a nasty blooper reel. Instead they featured the science of bubbles, how bubbles work and the amazing things we can do with them. That is exactly what my touring show for schools, museums, festivals... THE SECRET WORLD OF soap BUBBLES is all about. This was a blast to shoot. To learn more about how the day went from a bubble-pro's perspective (I brought my own video camera to the set) please visit my .com website BubbleArtist.
