The Cameo of Science (da da daaa!)

[Amalthea]

I was never a big Bill Nye fan, however it did bring a smile to my face knowing that he's going to have a cameo.

[Alipeeps]

Awwww. That's way cool - and I only know it's way cool cos my sister lived in the States for a while and used to watch Bill Nye and told me all about him cos she thought he was ACE. I've never ever seen him or any of his show myself but he sound so cool. My first thought when I read this news was to tell my sister cos she'd find it funny. And no-one else I know would have heard of him or get why this is cool, dammit.

YouTube to the rescue: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8I4PNx0VfmI

Just remember this is technically for kids.

Oh, I liked this one too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNjKVe7cC0Q

Oh boy oh boy! I hope he uses some sweet-ass contraption (of science!) to show some demonstration to the team!

Ok, so here's the whole part about that in that tele-conference:

Robert Picardo: I have a quick question myself. Joe, am I allowed to mention - I have a friend who has recently been cast in an upcoming episode. Am I allowed to mention that?

Meredith Woerner: Please do.

Robert Picardo: He’s a man. Do - are we allowed? Is that a surprise, Joe? Are we allowed to…

Joseph Mallozzi: Has he been cast? Which episode?

Robert Picardo: I believe it’s the one where they are visiting scientists or there are other visiting scientists. Do you know who I’m speaking of? An fan…

Joseph Mallozzi: Oh, has he been cast? I don’t know. Actually…

((Crosstalk))

Joseph Mallozzi: If the deal has been closed, then sure.

Robert Picardo: Oh, I believe - as far as I know, it’s been - he’s been cast. But I believe that Bill Nye, the Science Guy will be making an appearance.

Meredith Woerner: Great.

Robert Picardo: And he’s one of my closest friends, so I think that - but according to him, he’s…

Joseph Mallozzi: Yeah, well I spoke to (Carl Weber) our LA guy and then basically yeah, he did seem - he seemed interested. So yeah, it’s great.

Robert Picardo: Yeah, as far as I know he wants to do it so that’ll be - even though I’m not too certain we’re in the scene together.

Meredith Woerner: And he plays a scientist?

Robert Picardo: We’re very good friends, so that’ll be fun.

Joseph Mallozzi: That will be (cool place to visit)…

((Crosstalk))

Meredith Woerner: And he plays a scientist? I’m sorry.

Robert Picardo: You first, Joe.

Joseph Mallozzi: Oh no, yeah.

Meredith Woerner: Did you say that he plays…

Joseph Mallozzi: Yeah, he’ll be playing a scientist and hopefully there’ll be a couple of other cameos as well in that particular episode that we’re working on.

Meredith Woerner: Okay.

Hmmm...I think he may be in Brain Storm.

This is so ****ing awesome. I mean, he's like...GOD, to those of us in the science geek community. GOD, I SAY!

I can't wait!!

Oh, and he is an actor too. Just so you know.

thats all i have to say

I won't be watching this ep i never liked that guy and i DO like science

[Pajus]

If he's coming as an actor, he may make techno-babble more credible. It he's coming as a scientific advisor, he'll leave within 6 months, 'cause Mallozzi, Mullie, Gero and McCullough will ignore everything he'll say

Um actually they do listen to their advisors.
