Q: Did the "MythBusters" guys really survive on a deserted island with nothing but duct tape, or was it faked for the cameras? Most of their stuff is legit, but this one makes me wonder.
You have to take a lot of things with a grain of salt on "MythBusters," starting with its definition of "myth."
There is, in fact, no pervasive belief in our society that a person can survive on a deserted island as long as they have an unlimited supply of duct tape. That was not a myth that needed busting.
OutDaughtered, on TLC
When Dale tests positive for COVID-19, the entire family goes back into quarantine, their lives on hold yet again as they anxiously await their own results in this new episode of Season 5. Danielle gets news about the girls' upcoming school year.
Q: Is "When Calls the Heart" coming back to Netflix? It ended so abruptly and left us hanging.
There are a couple of different ways to read your question, but I suppose the answer would depend on whether you mean "come back" as in "release new episodes" or "come back to Netflix" specifically?

A Little Late with Lilly Singh
Do you even remember what life was like before COVID? Because I'm not sure that I do. I just remember that in the before times, humans used to be upright creatures that went outside and now we're horizontal and live on couches.
We finally have a vaccine … although roll-out hasn't been the fastest. Who's distributing these things? George R.R. Martin?
I just have a feeling that Bruce Wayne is somewhere in Gotham fighting off a new strain of COVID with his bare hands.
