Because of the segment’s popularity, Bill Nye was given a show of his very own called “Bill Nye the Science Guy” which was aired from 1993-1998. While the shows were aimed to catch the attention of younger audiences, it gained viewership from adults as well and were even used as effective educational aids for school science classes all over the U.S. Bill himself wrote and produced his show which was filmed entirely in Seattle.

Owing to my long-standing love of The Science Guy - as his followers affectionately dubbed him - I was ecstatic when I heard Netflix and Nye had agreed to work together on a new show. Unfortunately, it became clear in the first five minutes of the first episode of Bill Nye Saves the World that the Bill Nye being exhibited was not the Bill Nye of old. Much of Bill Nye Saves the World is Nye simply agreeing with popular opinions, oftentimes contradicting points he presented as fact in past projects.

When it comes to the New York Yankees, if you do not know Derek Jeter, then you do not know the Yankees. Growing up in Michigan, the upcoming shortstop had no idea the pedestal that he would be on would be so high. Watching the games on television, fans at Yankee games, no matter if they are home or away, don Jeter jerseys, hats, t-shirts, and sometimes even socks with pictures of the former Yankees shortstop on them. But, why has Jeter lasted for so long in the league as a memorable name? Not only because he played on the Yankees, one of the most popular professional sports teams on this planet, but because of his play on and off the field.

Treat others the way you want to be treated.
This shows focus that is more skewed towards content rather than context as the curriculum clearly states ‘the social and economic implications of science are important but, generally, they are taught most appropriately within the wider school curriculum’ (DfE 2015) and teachers should use other contexts to maximize student engagement. Moreover, although minimalism is the mark of the new curriculum, the breadth, specificity and challenge within the Science subject is made to measure up to the highest international standards. As a result of the identified weakness in scientific processes and enquiry such as using models and explanations and using scientific evidence (DfE 2012), focus is given on the sequence of knowledge and concepts to ‘develop secure understanding of each key block of knowledge and concepts in order to progress to the next stage…and working scientifically’ (DfE 2015, page
