Lung appeared on the reality television competition program MythBusters: The Search, which premiered on The Science Channel in January 2017. Despite his lack of on-camera experience, his humor and technical expertise, which he displayed in challenges that included finding a needle in a haystack, building a boat out of cardboard and picking a handcuff lock with a bobby pin, impressed the judges, and by the end of the competition, he and his fellow contestant, Houston pilot and rescue diver Brian Louden,[2][3] won the job co-hosting the TV series MythBusters, a reboot of the 2003 – 2016 program. The first 14-episode season of the new series premiered November 15, 2017. Lung commented, "I can't complain when every week I get to blow something up or build some insane machine. Every day, I check something off my bucket list."[2]
