Most of "How it's made" is filmed in Canada. "How stuff's made" is mostly in the US. "How do they do it?" is more widespread. |

I don't mind the Big Automated Factory stuff - in fact, I think it's fascinating. Some of the mechanisms in use are just incredible. Much more interesting than watching a bloke whacking something with a big hammer... The biggest problem with watching them on Discovery is the sheer number of repeats. It's like Family Guy - brilliant, but I'm pretty sure I've seen them all now... |

Also a show called "Factory Made" that is very similar. I watch them for lack of something better. Not a lot of real info in them, especially when they have a four minute segment on how a Hughes helicopter is made. Start to finish in four minutes, you know there's not much of the actual process shown. Still, they're kind of entertaining. Sort of "Manufacturing-Lite". ; ) |

Looks like it might be called "Some Assembly Required" in the US. It's usually got Brian Unger taking part in the processes involved. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1160042/ |

That's a different show again, mostly with Unger mugging for the camera. The other shows are more of a proper narrated program. |
