Bill Nye the Science Guy has joined forces with streaming giant Netflix to create a new show.
Bill Nye, popularly known for his 90’s hit TV show “The Science Guy”, will be making his return to the small screen on Netflix in spring 2017 with the launch of his new show “Bill Nye Saves the World”, aimed at getting people excited about science and the challenges of the world. Videos are constantly popping up online of people playing around with DIY science experiments, citizens everywhere are fighting to get politicians to pass climate change legislation, and scientists like Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson are practically rock stars. Hopefully, the Science Guy can help educate the masses because we’ll need a scientifically literate society if humanity is to live long and prosper.
The show will be produced by Michael Naidus, who produced the CBS talk show, “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson”. “And, perhaps we’ll change the world a little”, he added. Topics will include vaccinations, genetically modified foods and climate change.

Bill Nye actually released a statement regarding this new venture with Netflix and Indie Wire wrote that the partnership between the two is a natural progression of the network’s recent line of work with talk show hosts and their resurrection of old favorites like Full House.
