Netflix Green Lights Second Season Of Bill Nye Saves The World

Netflix has given the go ahead to an additional season of its in-house production Bill Nye Saves the World.

Netflix released the first season of the educational program this past April to critical success. The show marked Nye’s first appearance as a television host since the cancellation of his last show The Eyes of Nye. Departing from the style and tone of his Emmy Award-winning series Bill Nye the Science Guy, the show attempted to appeal to older audiences and tackle more topical subjects but ended after one season in 2005.

**** We hired Reggie, fulfilled our obligations to him, and he quit in the middle of covering two TV series w/ no notice and no explanation. He then ignored our emails asking him to complete his coverage (we had no one else to cover those TV shows). He didn't care. We regret hiring him and we regret putting our trust in him. **** An aspiring writer, longtime film junkie, and former UCLARadio.com disc jockey (where I graduated with a BA in Political Science), I've made the jump from penning book reviews and current events editorials for HonorSociety.org to writing movie and TV news and reviews. When I'm not working towards my certificate in Radio and Television/Video Production at Fullerton College, I enjoy reading (horror, science fiction, and historical/political nonfiction are particular favorites), participating in my school's TV and theatre clubs, attending movie screenings, plays, concerts, and other events, and trying to come up with pithy things to say on social media. Believe it or not, there are occasions where I find time to write for my own leisure.
