Summary

Energy is the topic of the day as Bill Nye, that most energetic of personalities, discusses how many forms of energy work. He shows how light, water, sound, and human muscles have energy, and the manner in which energy can change its forms. The programs are punctuated with snappy graphics, comedy, and kid-oriented music that enlivens even the stodgiest of subjects. It is Nye's goal to get kids excited about science, and his methods are admirable. The series has won six daytime Emmys, and other awards, and Nye has gained the enthusiastic support of many adult viewers as well. ~ Alice Day, Rovi
