The Science Guy Returns

Posted by Zonk on from the science-rules! dept.

hende_jman writes "When I was in high school, the dry science videos that I watched in my classes made me miss the silly and sometimes irreverent Bill Nye the Science Guy. So I was excited to read in the latest issue of Wired that everyone's favorite Science Guy is coming out with a new show, The Eyes of Nye where he tackles some more serious issues like addiction, sex, cloning, and climate change."

    No, Nye was never cool. And he had stupid kids always running around doing stupid shit and saying, "try it." Plus the songs, god damn it the songs, how anyone ever though that was a good idea is beyond me. And what was with the stupid ass skits? If you don't have talented children don't have them take up half the show!

    Beakman stomps Bill Nye any day of the week.

    I'm sick of following my dreams - I'm just going to ask them where they're going and hook up with them later.

    Beakman rocks, Nye is a pompous ass.

    I was at a AAAS meeting in LA and he comes bopping into a talk late with his little toadies. Then they decide their seats aren't good so they get up an move again! (this is a room that holds maybe 50 people) Then the genius asked a stupid question during the talk which shows he has no understanding of science talks.

    Beakman had a guy in Rat suit for God's sake!
