Bill Nye the Science Guy is an American live action educational comedy television program that originally aired from September 10, 1993 to June 20, 1998 and was hosted by Bill Nye. The show aired on PBS Kids and was also syndicated to local stations.
Each of the 100 half-hour episodes aims to lecture a specific topic in a natural science to a preteen audience.
Synopsis
Bill's TV persona is a tall and slender scientist wearing a blue lab coat and a bow-tie.[1] He mixes the serious science of everyday things with fast-paced action and humor. Each half-hour show begins with Bill walking onto the set, called "Nye Laboratories", which is filled with scientific visuals including many "of science" contraptions announced dramatically, relevant to the topic of the episode.
There are several individual segments that are featured in each episode, such as "Way Cool Scientist", which features an expert on the show's topic, "Consider the Following", where Bill discusses a certain aspect of the topic, "Nifty Home Experiment," where the audience is shown how to do a simple home experiment relating to the topic, and "Did you know that... ...Now you know," where an interesting factoid relevant to that episode's topic was presented.
Most half-hour episodes contain a mock song parody and music video in the "Soundtrack of Science" by "Not That Bad Records" ("Not that bad" is a line that Bill will often say in episodes), substituting a scientific roundup of the episode for the lyrics to a popular song. This is usually the last segment of each episode. Each half-hour show ends with Bill saying, "Well, that was our show. Thanks for watching. Now, if you'll excuse me..." before explaining in a clever description of an activity on topic, followed by him saying, "See ya!" afterwards. The credits sometimes rolled next to a series of outtakes from the episode.
Soundtrack
The show's theme song is set to a house beat with Bill's name shouted throughout the duration of the song. The sound and speed fluctuations of the voice were accomplished through a vocoder and electronic pitch fluctuation.
The show's episodes consisted of several compositions from Associated Production Music. Most of these songs were also in SpongeBob SquarePants and The Ren & Stimpy Show. Some featured tracks include:
- "Blood in the Gutter" by Laurie Johnson
- "Dramatic Impact #3" by Ivor Slaney
- "The Gunfighter" by Ennio Morricone
- "Hit and Run" by Ralph Dollimore
- "Killer Birds" by Gregor Narholz
- "Spindlelegs" by King Palmer
- "Acts of Heroism (C)"
- "Saw Theme"
- "Graveyard"
Production
Co-created by Bill Nye, James McKenna and Erren Gottlieb, the show was produced by McKenna/Gottlieb Producers, Inc, in partnership with KCTS-TV Seattle, and distributed by Buena Vista Television, a division of Disney. Nye, McKenna and Gottlieb all met while McKenna was a producer on Almost Live!, a comedy show in Seattle.[2]
The announcer was Pat Cashman, whom Nye knew from his time on Almost Live!. The theme song is credited to Mike Greene.
Before this show, Bill had previously worked alongside Christopher Lloyd in Back to the Future: The Animated Series, where he played Doc Brown's assistant and demonstrated several experiments.[3]
The show has been likened to the next generation version of Watch Mr. Wizard.[4][5] The show ran about the same time as and covered similar topics to Beakman's World, in fact sharing one crew member, editor/writer/director Michael Gross.[6]
The show has been primarily funded by the National Science Foundation, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the annual financial support from the viewers/stations of PBS. Other funding sponsors included Ore Ida, The Boeing Company, and Intel.

Home media
Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment released the series in its entirety on DVD, as part of the series' 20th anniversary.[8] In the United Kingdom, it was distributed on VHS by ViewTech, Bristol.
As of May 17, 2015, a 31 episode collection is available for streaming on various platforms through Netflix's popular service.[9]
The same set of 31 episodes is also available on iTunes, though they've been split into two separate collections; collection one containing 14 and collection two with 17.
Video game
A computer game for the series, titled Bill Nye the Science Guy: Stop the Rock!, was released in 1996 for Windows and Macintosh by Pacific Interactive.[10]
In the game, a large meteoroid called "Impending Dumé" threatens to make a catastrophic collision with the Earth. A team of scientists develop a laser satellite-controlling computer system called MAAX (Meteoroid and Asteroid Exploder) to destroy the meteoroid; however, MAAX develops a personality of its own and refuses to save the planet unless Earth's scientists can solve seven science riddles. Nye Labs decides to take on MAAX's challenge, and the player, depicted as the newest member of the Nye Labs team, is asked to solve these riddles using Nye Labs' equipment before Impending Dumé hits (represented through an in-game timer). The game featured a fully explorable Nye Labs, as well as video cut scenes featuring Bill and other Nye Labs scientists. However, the characters and cast members from the TV series, sans Bill and a few others, do not appear in this game, instead being replaced by game-exclusive Nye Labs team members and new actors.
