From 1988 until very early 1995, my family and I used to live in the Seattle area (yuck!!!!!). That was the setting of the very great educational Disney/PBS program, "Bill Nye, the Science Guy!!!!!" Our host, Bill Nye, showed us everything about experiments and science in a cool and fun way!!!!! It always started off at the "Nye Laboratories" door, then we go on to "The (insert many words here) of Science!!!!!" (fanfare) And here, Nye showed us how a different science is possible. We also learned many other great things from his lab to out in the world!!!!! We also talk with real life "scientists," do fun experiments in our kitchen, plus there's some funny skits that tied in with, well, SCIENCE!!!!! After all of that, we wrap up the day's episode with a music video, also explaining science.I remember I was at a mall in Seattle in December, 1993, and I actually met Bill Nye at a book signing!!!!! BTW, my family still has the book today: "Bill Nye the Science Guy's Big Book of Science!!!!!," published by Addison-Wesley, in 1993."Bill Nye, the Science Guy" was a terrific science show and probably the most academic work the Disney company has ever made in its "Golden Age." I only wish the show were on TV today, and along with my top-class private education, made me understand the universe a whole lot better. (Try THAT with "WILL OF THE BUTCHER" or whatever that bad time traveling DCOS is, LOL) Oh, and did I mention: SCIENCE RULES!!!!!10 stars, indeed!!!!!

Uhhh... just a note... Bill is NOT dead. :-) I guess it does seem that the man is dead, they took his show of the tube. But he's not dead. This show was the best. If they ever decide to put this on DVD for an affordable price, you have GOT to get this and show it to your children, their children, and their children's children. :-) Science rules. Love this guy. I hope they bring the show back to television. Sign the online petition to lower the price of the dvds. Do a google search for bill nye and the key word, petition. The petition will be sent to Disney to get them to lower the price.

I love this show. I use to watch it on PBS for a few years and then I watched it on ABC for a few years. This show helped with my science classes in junior high school and I think all children should watch this show when they're in Elementry and Junior high school.My favorite episode was the episode when Bill Nye taught us about the solar system since I love outer space. I also liked the way the channel would flicker during the show going to different stations. That always gave me some good laughs.Overall this is a really good show and its to bad that it was canceled a few years ago. It deserves 10/10 stars.

Bill Nye is an established scientist and comedian from Almost Live with fellow announcer Pat Cashman. His show is very enjoyable, informative, and entertaining. I wish it was around when I was a kid. I learn more from him than any science teacher in my life. He has one topic on his show and he sells it easily like the forest. He can produce a music video to help sell the forest and he even used a supermarket type idea for kids. Even adults with college education without children can enjoy it. I love his outdoors in Seattle and guest stars. It's too bad the show is no longer being produced. He has a new show filmed of course in his beloved Seattle, Washington. Bill Nye is truly one of a kind. He is today's answer to Mr. Wizard. His show should still be repeated on public stations for adults and children audiences. He provides entertainment as well as education.
