Earth's Crust

Don't just go with the flow. Settle down on the crust. Imagine a world without any crust. There would be no pies, just goopy filling, no bread, no hamburger buns, and no you or me. That's right. You, and every living thing we know of, live on or in the Earth's crust. And, living things need the Earth's crust to survive. Let's look at the science of the surface. By carefully studying the Earth's… read more »

    I miss Bill Nye! hide « show »

    The first time I ever saw this show was in school, I was into some of the cool experiments they did on the show, and I did some of them at home :P, this show kept me entertained with all the hijinks and silliness Bill Nye did! I even loved some of the fake commercials they did during the show. It's too bad they don't show it at my school anymore, I'm guessing we got too big for it?,So I'm hoping to buy some of the video tapes from Ebay. I don't like any educational shows, but basicly just this one! Also I never knew this show aired on Disney before! I really miss this show, and I hope it comes back... :(

    Annoying but educational. hide « show »

    It was very annoying but also very educational. Basically, in order to learn some new things, you had to sit through a bunch of annoying sound effects, cheesy lines, and weird characters and sketches. I think this is an okay show, but I have had a hard time taking it very seriously. I watched this when I was a kid, but even then I thought it was annoying and odd. One thing I will say about the show is that it is fun to learn from the way they teach things. Overall, it is an okay show that sometimes gets out of hand. Thank you.

    The Show. hide « show »

    This is the show I would rush home after school to watch when I was a troublesome young adult. Before that I would catch it on saturday morning and think it was neat. Now, I hope for a new episode of Stuff Happens to appear on my DVR. I saw him at the North American International Auto Show around 2001, and he remains my second favorite celeb. behind Bruce Campbell and in front of Anna David. I would say Bring It Back! but he has had several series since then, and all I can say is he better get more air time, he makes learning fun! You listening, new administration?

    Bill Nye teaches us science. hide « show »

    This is a great show! even though I never saw it on tv, I still watch it on DVD. I get it from my local library. It's the best show EVER!!!!!! I will never stop watching this series. I can't wait to get another episode. I even watch ones that I've already seen! My fave episode the food chain where he gets stuck while showing us how the food chain works. The last one I saw was the erosion episode where he show us how erosion works. Another fave is the volcano episode when he screams "Volcanoes!!!" in the middle of his theme song. Also, the Aa soap (made out of volcanic rocks)cracks me up!! Love this series!
