  I personally found his style really abrasive

  the goofball science schtick doesn’t work for you? I know him from his old tv show from my youth.

  Reddit was shitting all over him too, stating mostly that he’s a prick and not friendly IRL at all.

  well that’s… kinda an endorsement for me lol. most of reddit is a prick and not friendly irl from my own experiences.

  appreciate the reply

    From me too. Reddit wasn’t made because he’s ‘not friendly’, they were that Bill was too ‘woke’ and had a song and dance number) by Rachel Bloom that even I found a little cringy tbh. Not because of the message, but I just think it was kind of poorly done. The only people I’ve ever heard say a bad word about Bill were climate deniers, anti vaxxers etc.

    I’m proud of Bill for not backing down from politically charged issues, when he could easily ignore them to get more viewers/supporters. Scientists shouldn’t let politics interfere with Science and Science Communicators shouldn’t either.

      well put. any time someone sneers ‘woke’ I laugh and check that person off of my list of people to give two fucks about. it’s such a stupid, regressive pattern that you realize is represented in choices throughout their lives.

    I’ve never seen the originals, as he’s not that popular in Europe. My only exposure is “Bill Nye Saves The World” on Netflix. I couldn’t get past the first episode.

    I’m a big fan of Sagan, and while I don’t think NDT’a Cosmos: A Space time Odyssey was as good as the first series, I was mostly looking at Nye’s show with the same lense and trying to draw comparisons between them.

      have not seen that. will go look for it, I wonder if perhaps he’s exhausted trying to explain basic science in this idiot-filled age.

      I watched half of the new cosmos, then something got in the way, need to rewatch it. Agree it was not as amazing as OG Cosmos (I love that series so much that I own two copies of the book, one for me and one for the kids). Sagan is just that awesome, it even overcomes the 70s outfits :D
