Critics Reviews

Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Sadly, Nye's crucial first episode about vaccines and misguided fears about vaccination seems woefully misjudged. Mar 29, 2018 Full Review John Bonazzo Observer If you want '90s nostalgia that doesn't make your brain hurt, watch Fuller House instead. Apr 26, 2017 Full Review Aja Romano Vox At its best, this approach is enlightening and empowering, rather than alienating. And Nye's skepticism is undeniably at its best in an early episode addressing vaccinations. Apr 21, 2017 Full Review Sean Mulvihill FanboyNation.com Will this Netflix show save the world? Probably not. But Bill Nye Saves the World will help people understand complex scientific issues without hyperbole or political bias. Rated: 4/5 Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Michelle Jaworski The Daily Dot Bill Nye Saves the World is a work in progress, but it's sprinkled with enough nostalgic factors to satisfy his older fans without being completely overwhelmed by them. Sep 7, 2017 Full Review Chase Burns The Stranger (Seattle, WA) If you have even a remote sentimental connection to Bill Nye the Science Guy, then Bill Nye Saves the World will make you happy cry and, at least in my case, snap at the TV while whining, 'Yas, Bill. Yasssss.' Aug 24, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews
