While, I don't entirely disagree I think this is ultimately less important. It's not like someone is going to go straight from watching Mythbusters to writing journal articles. There's plenty of time to learn how real science is done, if you can get them to care in the first place. This reminds me of the common experience where people end up more enamored with a subject (and ultimately learn more about it) if the teacher who introduced them to it was more enthusiastic and effective, as opposed to more skilled in the subject at hand.
