Tyler, The Creator has joined forces with our favorite ’90s TV scientist to save the world.

The Original Show
In the following clip, Nye and Tyler talk about the original show and the new theme song. Nye notes that the idea of the original show was that “the world is a laboratory,” and if you watched the show and pursued science, then you’d find yourself having “the coolest time.”

Tyler adds that the original theme song was “really sick” and that he loves the “fast-pacedness” of it. “That show, it got kids to not hate science class,” Tyler says in the video. “And that worked, that full-on worked.”
