    NOVA has gone to progressive HELL
    This show used to be superb, a sober science-based show that talked about interesting topics in mostly hard sciences. Astronomy, physics, biology, chemistry, social sciences, archeology. Now, it's become a shadow of itself. Only concerned with the progressive agenda, it has sacrificed solid science for a warped kind of popularism. Those who have replaced reputable and notable scientists from top institutions are mostly mediocre, unacommplished academics from 2nd and 3rd rate universities. Why? Because they are women, mostly, "women of colour." In addition, explanations of critical scientific concepts get the "dumb-down" treatment and turned into silly analogies in an attempt to appeal to a segment of the public who do not watch these kinds of shows. Leave the dullards to their reality TV shows and cater to people who KEEP PBS AFLOAT and it isn't the unwashed.
