Explores science and its impact on politics, society and pop culture. Each episode of the series will tackle a topic from a scientific point of view, dispelling myths, and refuting anti-scientific claims that may be espoused by politicians, religious leaders or titans of industry.
The bottom line? If you love Bill Nye in every form and can overlook his uneasiness in this new role, then this series will make you think about issues you may or may not have contemplated before.
If it's not quite a rescue mission, Nye appears to have taken to heart the concept of trying to provide a small beacon of light rather than just cursing the darkness.
Nye at his most invested and full of energy is infectious, and that usually happens when he's trying to relay information in layman's terms. He is in his element.
Despite an entertaining return by the famous scientist, Bill Nye Saves the World only offers a surface-level investigation into some of the biggest issues our world faces today.
At its best, this approach is enlightening and empowering, rather than alienating. And Nye's skepticism is undeniably at its best in an early episode addressing vaccinations.
While the format is geared to adults, the content is too simple to be of interest to them. For kids who might try to watch, all the talking heads will be a bore.
