Mr. Wizard's World was a Nick gem!, 24 June 2008
8/10
Author: Sylvia Marciniak (sylviastel@aol.com) from United States

It's too bad that Nickelodeon doesn't show as much Canadian programming as it did in its origins. While Don Herbert was not a native Canadian, he was a science teacher turned television star. This show allowed science to be fun without being intimidating or turned off by boredom of science. Let's face it, I'm not into science or math but I do remember watching this show once in a while particularly early in the morning before I went to school. I don't remember if I ever learned anything but I do remember that it was filmed in Calgary and the experiments. It was probably better than the 1970s show. Don Herbert also known as Mr. Wizard has left us only last year but his legacy is that science doesn't always have to be boring and you can learn something or at least tried too.
