At First i thought Nye who? Then i watched the Trailer and thought looks entertaining. So i started to google/search about the Show and found Seth MacFarlane has his Fingers in it which is a Plus in my Book.

Informations about Bill Nye,for me a unkown Person because i live in different Country(Europe,hihihi), was also interesting: Nye worked as an engineer for the Boeing Corporation and Sundstrand Data Control near Seattle. At Boeing, he invented a Hydraulic Resonance Suppressor Tube used on Boeing 747 airplanes. He applied four times, unsuccessfully, for NASA's astronaut training program.

SO he was/is a legit Engineer at least it seems so(plus one INVENTION),but made a career-change into Comedy later in his life.👍

Damn i thought to myself,give´em a Try for Sure.

And not surprisingly it is very entertaining.

I'm from the Mr. Wizard generation, so never watched Bill Nye the Science Guy program.

I was taught the history and science of previous natural disasters. My parents , both living in the plains during the dustbowl/depression days. Told their experience of that time period. Dad always planted a garden to help sustain our food supply.

Now I'm watching an update of history, plus positive answers to stop them.

Definitely recommend to everyone. Take away whatever. Just view with an open mind and a curiosity to stop natural disasters.

Prevention is always cheaper than catastrophe. At what point do we have to reach before we listen and act?

I love science, I love Bill Nye. What's not to like?

This show is about the upcoming, and possible challenges, and disasters we might face. Will face if we don't act on them soon. While educating people about them, it offers good science without bothering with details too much. At the same time offering solutions to each of those upcoming problems.

The construct of the show is very entertaining, and Bill Nye is charismatic as the host.

Bill Nye is a great science communicator, he has charisma, and educates people, whilst you are being entertained.

I have seen all of Bill Nye's shows, except for the 'Science Guy', so far I have enjoyed each and every single one of them.

Really loved this show! The simulations are cheesy and full on corny at times, but shows some very cool things!! It's not junk science or propaganda, or "woke" garbage or anything like that, it's entertaining and the science is sound and cool! We need to change our society or we are doomed!! Edutainment at its best as always with Bill Nye, and probably the best thing to come from Seth Macfarlane for a very long time!! Need more of this show, and maybe even touch on man made possible endings!! I don't get the people who left bad reviews on here, they obviously did not watch this show at all!! It is a must watch for any science lover!

So it's Bill Nye, what's not to like. Also we have seen some of the worst hurricanes and aftermath in the U. S. so he's right to review this and see what we can do better. I'm watching this after Hurricane Ian hit Florida and caused catastrophic billion-dollar damage. One area of Florida that didn't get damaged and that was because they prepared for hurricanes and engineered their community with this in mind was Babcock Ranch. Plus I've always liked movies like this, so it's my kind of genre. I totally recommend watching this. Of course they cover more than hurricanes and I'm looking forward to watching the other episodes.

Science can be entertaining. If we are forward thinking and not get stuck in the past we can thrive, become profitable, and help the world. Yes, invest in future science. Because denying facts only leads to being stuck in a narrow existence of unsustainable acts. For example combustion engines will be collector's items for you grandkids, the same way horse and buggy transportation was for your great grandparents. As science takes us back into space on vehicles and machines are needed on the moon and Mars, electric engines or alternative power sources are the only option. Without an atmosphere, a combustion engine will not work.

This show gave me ideas for future investments in myself and businesses.

A lot of the disaster scenarios that you discuss involve earthquakes. Please note that the Richter Scale became obsolete in the 1970's. It gives unreliable results above a 6.0. The currently used scale is the Moment Magnitude Scale.

Even though the popular press likes to throw around the term "Richer Scale" concerning earthquakes, remember these people are generally uneducated in science and too lazy to check their facts. Quite frankly, old boy, I expected better from you and I'm not a Geophysics expert either.

Remember there are a lot of us "baby boomers" out there who studied a lot of really hard science in the 60's and 70's and mistakes like these stick out like a sore thumb and undercut your believability.

Really entertaining and informative series presented in a clear, informative and engaging manner. Mr. Nye does an excellent job. Of course every user review section has the usual suspects who are typical right wing deniers. Ignore them and cross check the show's content with FACTS and EVIDENCE that support the content. The creators of this excellent show aren't making up the urgency of man made global warming. The other natural phenomena, which we may have no control over, are things to ponder indeed and, according to Nye, may be mitigating actions we can institute to survive. As Nye eloquently points out the conditions we, as the human occupants of this planet, can correct and modify are real and should be undertaken if we are to be responsible stewards of this planet...and have a planet for our descendants to flourish.

This documentation of hypothetical disasters is a must. Not just a "give it a try" for entertainment purposes. It's a serious warning about underestimated threats. While Billy Nye presents these scenarios engagingly and entertainingly, this does not diminish the seriousness of the dangers he explores.

Take just one example to make my Argumentation clearer: the "global blackout" caused by a super solar flare. This threat is realistic and frightenly dangerous nowadays, because mankind has put its fate in the hand of electricity. Underlining the urgent need for humanity to take precautions now. If you've seen the film Leave the World Behind (2023), you'll have some idea of the problems that even a failed satellite system could cause. A complete global blackout and the destruction of all semiconductor technology would be catastrophic on an even larger scale. Imagine the destruction of all unprotected semiconductors on Earth and the consequences.

Nowadays, such an event could throw the human race back into the Stone Age, causing a complete breakdown of all infrastructure and many of other problems. It did happen already, countless times, but these solar flares didn't destroy semiconductors and electricity systems back then, because, they haven't been invented yet. Nowadays a societal collapse would follow, with anarchy taking over. Calling the police would be impossible. In such a world, something as simple as a bottle of water could become a reason to kill.

Rebuilding our world to its current state could take centuries.

This documentary is not just a recommendation, it's essential viewing.

Not many know that he is not a real scientist. In fact while many people are under the mistaken impression that Bill Nye is a scientist, he does not have any scientific credentials. His six honorary doctorates were given to him for his work on educational TV shows, and for showing up as a guest speaker, not for any actual scientific research that he's done. Now read that one part again six *honorary* doctorates. Not earned in a classroom, but given to him for simply being on tv and being a guest speaker. So what he says means nothing to me. If he can't even be honest about himself and his credentials, then he has nothing to say I want to hear.

I really miss the "old" Bill Nye of the PBS era, where he taught science in a straightforward and easy-to-understand manner without political spin. Alas, this Bill Nye has been gone for some time now.

This is more of the preachy "we're all doomed if we don't change" Bill Nye that we've seen from his recent Netflix specials. I guess that this show is OK if you like that kind of thing, but I'd imagine that most people are sick of hearing that the sky is falling by now. I know that I am.

I'm hopeful that future episodes will be more educational and less activist. Based on the first episode, anyway, this is a show that only Greta Thunberg would love.

The Misinformation Media's Go to Fake Science Guy, Bill Nye, has no scientific training but is a media-created imposter whose job it is to spew Leftwing Doomday Fiction about Climate Change AKA Global Warming. What new this time is the Fiction is spun with dazzling CGI animations that really bring all of the fake Doom Science to Life -- at least in the sadistic imagination of the show's writers and producers. The End is NYE is a never-ending orgy of doom intended to scare yound people and the scientifically illeterate (i.e., most people today) as a psychological conditioning for further DOOM Stories to come, including those officially endorsed by our government for the purpose of controlling the human herds through fear.

Just more cringeworthy climate doomsday cult indoctrination from the fake scientist. Why anyone takes seriously or regards as a scientist an old dude with a bachelors degree in mechanical engineering, I'll never know. From the cheesy graphics and editing to the politically contrived pseudo science, Nye again offers nothing but cringe and eye rolls in his latest desperate attempt to retain his status as a C List political celebrity. Absolutely terrible like everything else this Pravda court jester has touched in the past 10 years. What a fantastic waste of time for everyone involved in this garbage project.

I like Bill but this just sucks. The information and how it is presented to the viewer is BORING and I find myself skipping until there is something of actual substance... (you will find yourself skipping most of the video if you do what I am suggesting.) There is just too much crap acting, CGI, and terrible "comedic relief" Sorry Bill but this one is a stinker that is best left in the toilet. I really cannot imagine myself watching this with another human that has a functioning brain as they would likely tell me that the show is 90 percent fluff and 10 percent actually talking about anything that matters. Half the show is just hypothetical nonsense that I am just supposed to sit through and watch without skipping. NOT THIS TIME BILL IM AN ADULT NOW AND NOT FORCED TO SIT THROUGH YOUR SCIENCE VIDEOS IN SCHOOL WITHOUT SKIPPING!!!
