Our Favorite ‘Science Guy’ Is Getting His Own Talk Show On Netflix! (TWEETS/VIDEO)

For those of us who were in school in the 1990s, we got excited when the teacher would bring a TV into the classroom. This usually meant that we would be watching a movie that day. Sometimes, this would mean watching the awesome show, “Bill Nye The Science Guy.” He taught lessons about science in a very accessible way.

Now, he is getting his own talk show on Netflix. Of course, the show is titled, “Bill Nye Saves The World.” 

Nye said:

“Today, I’m excited to be working with Netflix on a new show, where we’ll discuss the complex scientific issues facing us today, with episodes on vaccinations, genetically modified foods and climate change. With the right science and good writing, we’ll do our best to enlighten and entertain our audience. And, perhaps we’ll change the world a little.”

Each episode will focus on a different topic. He will mainly be targeting the climate change deniers and general science deniers in the audience.

He had this to say about the show:

“Since the start of the ‘Science Guy’ show, I’ve been on a mission to change the world by getting people everywhere excited about the fundamental ideas in science.”

This is, by far, not the first time Nye has gone after science-deniers. After the idiot creationist, Ken Ham opened up his ridiculous Ark Encounter museum, Nye went to visit. Nye said:

“This could be just a charming piece of Americana, just something — I recently used an app called Roadtrippers that takes you to odd or unusual places…but this is much more serious than that. This guy promotes so very strongly that climate change is not a serious problem, that humans are not causing it, that some deity will see to it that everything is ok.”

This is not Nye’s first encounter with Ken Ham. Two years ago, they had an epic debate at Ham’s Creationist Museum. The main topic was keeping Creationism out of classrooms. It is a great debate if you have 2 hours and 45 minutes to spare.

I’m looking forward to seeing Bill Nye crush science deniers.
