Bad Universe: Great Show

Bad Universe: Absolutely terrifyingly entertaining. This is not your typical science show about the universe; it’s more like Mythbusters meets astronomy. With awesome experiments and highly enjoyable information that will both scare the crap out of you and keep you glued to the television. There are not many shows of this caliber on television right now; this will capture the attention of children and adults, another perfect show for kids to watch with their parents. You can completely feel the passion host Dr. Phil Plait has for astronomy and that is what makes this show Philnomenal! Thank you Phil, you made it cool to want to be an astronaut again.
And I just want to add one more thing, if Discovery gave Ghost Lab a full series, they better give Bad Universe a shot at a full series, if not I will be insulted.


I highly agree with you Bobby. Phil is personable and is able to explain what would normally be over-your-head science in a way so easy to understand it makes me want to quit my Master’s and switch to astronomy! The show is done in such a fun format that you don’t have the change for science to get boring. He’s so fun and looks like he’s having the most fun in the world. His geeky laughter and passion is infectious, and this is going to be my new favorite “smart” show. Kudos to Plait for managing to create quality programming!
This show was truly awesome.. I described it as Mythbusters meets the crap I SHOULD have learned in school (would have if it was in this format), with a touch of Stan Lee. Awesome and entertaining. I hope they pick this up, I would definitely watch!
Show was good, educational and fun. Catch phrase needs revamping.
