What Is the Meaning of Peacock's 'The End Is Nye'? Bill Nye Dishes on New Show (EXCLUSIVE)

Mechanical engineer Bill Nye is back along with his Peacock sequence 'The End Is Nye.' Let's talk about the real meaning of the educational series and its name.

Do you will have fond reminiscences of hypnotically chanting "Bill, Bill, Bill, Bill!" at a large boxy TV display screen all the way through science elegance circa the mid-'90s and early-2000s? If so, you almost certainly watched Disney's tutorial series Bill Nye the Science Guy (which is a complete banger of a show, via the way). The collection starred Bill Nye himself, the well-known mechanical engineer who really needs no creation.

Though he probably nearly taught you about volcanoes, bones, mild, and color in basic and center school, he's now right here to show us grown adults (we're the usage of that term loosely) about, well, the end of the global, in his and Seth MacFarlane's new Peacock sequence The End Is Nye.

"Bill Nye demystifies the globe's most epic disasters imaginable, offering a scientific blueprint for surviving anything that comes Earth's way," the reliable synopsis reads.

You may be thinking that the sequence' name is a play on words — possibly changing the word "near" with Bill's closing name — however that's best in part the case. So, what does the title imply? We're here to explain it. Not most effective that, but Bill Nye spoke solely with Distractify about his overall goals for the sequence itself.

The identify of 'The End Is Nye' turns out to reference the phrase "the end is nigh."

The definition of the word nigh is simply "almost," or "near in place, time, or relationship."

According to the Free Dictionary, the end is nigh is an idiom that references the apocalypse: "The end of the world will occur at any moment; Armageddon is at hand."

Oftentimes, the time period is used relating to the bible, specifically the Book of Revelation. Ever heard of Judgement Day?

Bill Nye stated that growing an optimistic view for the long term was a objective for 'The End Is Nye.'

"So, this is the surprising thing ... When things are going well in the world and in your world, we go to see comedies and romantic comedies and so on, and so on. [But] when things are anxiety-inducing, we go for more anxiety. We watch disaster movies," Bill Nye shared with Distractify. Misery loves corporate, does not it?

"Right now in the world, there's a lot of things to be anxious about. And so, we made six disaster movies with a twist," he persisted, referencing the collection' episodes. "In the second half, we show you this optimistic view of the future: if we made changes, if we respected the science of these discoveries, we could avoid entirely or greatly reduce the effects of these big potential problems."

Call it surprise therapy.

What's extra, between the moments of catastrophic disaster discussed in The End Is Nye — , before the optimism — there are undertones of black comedy and comic reduction. Emmy winner Seth MacFarlane is an govt producer on the collection, after all.

"We worked very hard on mixing humor with seriousness, so check it out. Turn it up loud [during] the first half. Not to give you too much information, but the disaster is so overwhelming that I get killed at the end of the first half hour," Bill Nye explained.

"But then, in the second half, I come back with the optimistic view [of] the future systems in place. By respecting the science, we can save the world for us humans."

He's literally loss of life to save lots of the international, y'all. And maybe, just maybe, we should believe him. It's time we get smart.

You can now movement The End Is Nye on Peacock.
