Singapore – Discovery Channel and HP have entered a six-week partnership to present new episodes of Discovery’s series Mythbusters from March 23 to April 28 in Southeast Asia.
The partnership includes on-air, on-ground and online elements. In addition to presenting brand new episodes of Mythbusters to viewers in Southeast Asia, the on-air component includes a spot campaign for the HP Folio that will air on Discovery Channel, TLC and Animal Planet for the duration of the partnership.
The two companies will also be running an online contest that will provide one lucky winner with a trip for two to visit the Mythbusters lab in San Francisco. For a more immersive experience, there will be road shows in four cities across Southeast Asia – Jakarta, Bangkok, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
On the series, special-effects experts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman take on age-old myths and urban legends to show you what’s real – and what’s reel. In each episode, they put what remains of their nine lives on the line to bust more myths and dispel untruths in the name of science.
