Bill Nye: Science Guy profiled on POV

Synopsis

Bill Nye is a man on a mission: to stop the spread of anti-scientific thinking across the world. The former star of the popular kids' show "Bill Nye the Science Guy" is now advocating for the importance of science, research and discovery in public life. With intimate and exclusive access—as well as plenty of wonder and whimsy—this behind-the-scenes portrait of Nye follows him as he takes off his Science Guy lab coat and takes on those who deny climate change, evolution and a science-based worldview. The film features Bill Nye, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Ann Druyan and many others. The film is a PBS Distribution release.

I haven't watched any of it, but imdb gives ratings in the 2's and 3's for the episodes, and that would agree with the opinions of fellow skeptics I've spoken about it with.

I was never a fan of his manic style (too old, probably), but that's a hell a decline.
