The Discovery Channel yesterday announced the launch of its official Mythbusters iPhone application, bringing "sneak peak" video content, fan interaction, and casual gaming to fans of the popular television series.

The MythBusters App for iPhone and iPod touch features more than 300 minutes of ad-free, short-form video content, including exclusive sneak peeks, outtakes and behind-the-scenes clips. Fans can also chat live with other @MythBusters fans via Twitter, connect with the show's Facebook community and find out more about the series - from cast bios and photos to the TV schedule. Additionally, casual gamers can try their hand at popular myths through three multi-level games and compete against MYTHBUSTERS fans to top the leaderboard.

The Mythbusters iPhone application is priced at $3.99 and has already been updated to version 1.02 to fix some minor bugs. Fans of the show should also note that the application's release has been well-timed, with new episodes of Mythbusters resuming tomorrow at 9:00 PM Eastern and Pacific Time on the Discovery Channel.
