"Where have all the good men gone, and where are all the gods? Where's the streetwise Hercules to fight the rising odds? Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? Late at night I toss and I turn and dream of what I need. I need a hero."
And lo, along came a hero in the most unlikely of forms,
Bill Nye the Science Guy.
Each episode the eternally curious host will explore topics like climate change, alternative medicine, genetically modified food, new technologies and more, debunking myths and anti-science conspiracy theories, with lively panel discussions, experiments, celebrity guests and a panel of special correspondents including
Karlie Kloss, Joanna Haussman, Emily Calandrelli, Derek Muller and
Nazeem Hussain.
These billboards for
Bill Nye Saves the World were first snapped along
La Cienega Boulevard on April 14, then later above
Santa Monica Boulevard in
West L.A. and along
Melrose Avenue through April 19, 2017.
It's a nice touch that these billboards for his new
Netflix show are made from eco-friendly material, it helps reinforce the message of his series in a fun way.
Let's all hope that with his enthusiasm, super smarts and ability to help educate people, combined with all the intelligent, hard-working scientists around the globe, we can help save our planet when corrupt politicians, religious zealots and greedy businessmen seem to want to doom civilisation for their own ends.
P.S. Daily Billboard is sorry if
Bonnie Tyler's 1984 song
'Holding Out for a Hero' is now stuck in your head all day long.
UPDATED: Here's another slightly more heroic ad creative for the new science-themed show spotted above
Hollywood's Vine Street on May 11, 2017.
