Trivia
Due to the Canadian laws against product placements, all products in this show are referred to by generic names, but at the same time, little effort is made to hide logos and brand names on the featured products. However, the end credits have a "Thanks to" which lists the companies involved.

Crazy credits
In the Canadian version of the show, the opening sequence from Season 1-7 has a part in which letters appear to spell "HOW I MAD" rather than the full title of the show.

Connections
Referenced in MacGyver: Murdoc + Handcuffs (2018)

Great show!

A++ This show is amazing! It's been on the air for 6 years already and I never miss a show. You always learn something new. It's extremely informative and very interesting. Every episode shows how 4 different products are made. The show is not full of complicated explanations that only industry people can understand. It's written in laymen's terms so it's a show that the whole family can enjoy watching together. At this time, there are 7 seasons airing on the Discovery Channel. The first season was hosted by Mark Tewksbury but subsequent seasons were without a host. An off-screen narrative replaced the on-screen host. I prefer the version with the off-screen narrative. Well worth watching!
