Guess who’s back?…Back again…Bill Nye is back! Tell a friend!
First, forgive me for that shameless re-use of an Eminem song. Second, rejoice! A perennial favorite of science lovers everywhere, Bill Nye, is back with a new show on the Discovery Channel! While I think that it won’t have the charm and the nostalgic quality of the Bill Nye the Science Guy show (how could you not? The intro credits were awesome!), I am sure as hell it will be in interesting, informative, and – most importantly – entertaining show.
This description from the Stuff Happens site really makes me want to watch the show ASAP:
Stuff Happens examines the everyday stuff of our lives, and the far-reaching effects our actions have on the planet. From cashmere sweaters causing dust storms in China, to American pig farmers inadvertently aiding the global collapse of anchovy fisheries, Stuff Happens explores the surprising twists and unintended consequences of all the stuff in our lives.
This exciting half-hour series engages the viewer with astonishing information, easy-to-follow science, lighthearted demonstrations, expert interviews and connective story-telling to amplify growing problems in the environment and important solutions we can all take to make things better. With trademark good humor, Bill Nye helps viewers get a grip on big topics and presents positive, upbeat solutions to the critical problems facing us all.
In an nutshell: Stuff Happens explores how our daily lives affect the environment and how we can reduce our negative impact on. I can’t wait to start watching it! It premieres Tuesday, September 2 at 9pm ET.
And, if you didn’t know already, Bill did have another TV show awhile back called The Eyes of Nye. It was essentially Bill Nye the Science Guy but geared more towards adults and would talk about science and discuss the ramifications of science and technology.
Man, Bill Nye is so cool. Although…it really was weird when he wanted to get a restraining order against his ex-wife because of allegations dealing with poisoning…
Nevertheless, he’s still so cool to me.
