The rpemise for that show would't fly today i think. He was specifically
the 'neighborhood science guy who had the kids come over to his house for
fun experiments.' Mr. Ashcroft wouldn't approve...

Before Bill Nye there was a show with a character actor who answered
kids questions. The set was very involved with props to demonstrate
the answers. He has two assistants, on a guy in a rat suitnamed The
Guy in the Rat Suit. What was that show?

Perhaps not, but Bill Nye the Science guy had a pretty good show
for a while. Did a lot of interesting things. He also went on a
local to Seattle SNL take off and did things there. One that I
remember him doing was to blow huge smoke rings with a garbage
can.
