Bill Nye Saves the World

I am so very disappointed with this sad excuse of a television program. Bill Nye was one of my idols growing up, and I remember watching "The Science Guy" every day I would come home from school. Fascinated by the way Bill used to captivate the minds of myself and my friends/classmates, I knew, without a doubt, "Saves the world" would be a genius new installment. I was horribly wrong. There is absolutely no science or even reason behind any of the discussions in the show. Bill Nye is dead to me, and I feel we've lost a true pioneer in the field of science.

I do not often (have I ever?) written reviews for TV shows or movies. However, I thought this would be something to look forward to, addressing serious topics like global warming and science for the masses, right?

There is a constant cheering and applauding for anything he says, it's really cringe worthy and I cannot for the love of something, understand what they are trying to accomplish here other than scare serious viewers away from such an important topic! I could barely make it through first episode, and I do not plan on watching any more than this. They are making science look bad, and a laughing stock on of the biggest problems humanity will face!

What is going on with all these negative reviews?! I get people having differing opinions, but so many of the reviews seem to have been written by people who didn't even watch the show! If you enjoy learning science from a diverse and balanced group of guests and you genuinely care about our environment, planet and the human race, give this show an actual chance (as in WATCH it) and then give an actual review.

What better way to turn people away from the scientific method than to inject it with elite Hollywood propaganda. This show accomplishes the exact opposite of what it set out to do.

I do wonder how much of a role Bill had in picking the topics and how he was able to discuss them. I hope for his sake he was strong-armed into the end result.

I thought this was supposed to be Bill Nye for adults. He brings in some serious experts to discuss the subjects of the shows, then gives the experts maybe 5 or 6 minutes. I understand his opening explanations of what he is trying to convey, but the silly skits belittle the legitimacy of the message. If he really wants to appeal to adults, he needs to tone down the silliness. Otherwise, he needs to market this series as a program for children, with a caution as to subject matter. Please, Bill, give more time to the panel of experts and less time to the dancing eggplant.
