Wired Science

Frankly more shows of this type are needed

Finally! I hoped that somebody would make this happen. I just stumbled upon this show. It is amazing. Thanks. Great for me. Great for the world. We need more science, math and technology in pop culture. It's about time we use the success of suggestion and widespread information for motives beyond capital gains. I commend you for a valiant effort in the battle to reverse the state of decay to be inherited by our future generations.

I fell in love with your progam and very sad that it was pull. My number one show was Nova and Sciencenow. The great show that got me thru high school was my mentor Carl sagan's show. Some other cable channel should pick up this show it's needed, interesting, and brings you to beware of things around. Keep this website for wiredscience going. It shows that some people still don't want people to know what is in some of the thing they put in our food, health products, and cleaning solutions. That is why americans are not only getting fat off of food, but also getting poisoned from somethings we don't need in our bodies. Besides all natural, and wholesome foods and health item without the chemicals are needed really for us.

This was my absolute favorite show on TV last season. Is there anyway of contacting PBS to try and get it renewed? What is Chris Hardwick up to now and where can we see it?

How sad. Is there any way that this program can be resurrected? This was a great program.

i did not realize this show had been canceled?!!!....by far the best show on PBS.I hope a cable network picks it up, Discovery channel maybe? Finally something entertaining for the young adult viewers,yes those are the people who will be supporting PBS in the future,i know very few young people who get into opera or dry English sitcoms.i am 26 and i actually thought about pledging some cash to support a show like wired science on PBS. i agree best theme song,can we get it in ringtone format???????

i love wired science. my kids have been more interested in science since watching your show.

I think it's baffling that Wired Science isn't coming back. The show was smart, the website is amazing - another season and this could have been a real hit. Great work PBS!! You got it all figured out once again!! Honestly, I have no clue why I continue to support this lost cause of a "media enterprise".

Can't another channel pick up the show? This was the best show
I've seen in a long time. I barely caught wind of the show before it was taken off!

come on why did you cancelled wired science? it was a great show and i learned alot of interesting things. you (PBS) should bring it back. how about you air shows aimed at younger audiences like Wired science instead of old people shows such as antique road show.

Bring back Wired Science-- my students would actually go home, find the program in the TV listings and WATCH IT OWN THEIR OWN TIME-- I have never had such a positive response to a science show!!!!!!!!!!!

Please make more shows! Thanks for keeping out the environmentalism (mostly) and focusing on REAL science.

I want my Wired Science on PBS! The show had a few flaws but come back, Please?

I want my WIRED science back! What a sad ending to a great show!

It's disappointing that PBS elected to drop Wired Science because the show didn't appeal to PBS loyalists.

Maybe the older audience that makes up the pledge drives won't watch Wired Science or use an ATM, but younger people did.

PBS doesn't seem to realize that advertisements promoting Wired Science on shown on PBS are not being shown to the audience they intend to attract. So its not a shock that the younger audience didn't materialize. On PBS the younger audience is watching Sesame Street. Wired Science gave PBS the opportunity to avoid the problem that the opera, ballet, and orchestra groups have as their 'loyalists' age, and no one steps into their place..

PBS also needs to consider building a new base of viewers that over time will become loyal and pledge during fund drives.

Please start season 2 of wired you guys are so amazing that PBS TV has copied your video editing techniques and I consider that an honor in creativity ...keep up the fantasic job wired science , you guys are a favorite of mine!

I want to see more Wired Science. It was a great show, please make more episodes. It is the only show I watch on PBS and we need more shows like it.

What a shame! WS was an excellent show. Ten episodes was not enough to get a regular following. I would have to say that WS was my new favorite show.

Matt Cooter; Elizabethton, TN. 3.22.08 6:37 PM PDT

this makes me sad. WS was so much better than . . . uh, any other science-technology show on television.

I took offense at the segment regarding the marketing of pharmacuticals that aired on my local PBS station last night. I suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome. It was not until I saw an ad on television that I realized that what I was suffering from had a name and I could approach my physician to get relief. Until you have suffered from these almost indescribable sensations that attack as soon as you sit down to relax of an evening or go to bed, you have no right to judge those of us who have resorted to these drugs to alleviate our symptoms. Without medication an RLS sufferer gets no sleep, no relief. The need to move your legs is so compelling that you cannot sit or lie down. How many of you have walked through the rooms of your house for most of the night, in tears, because you can get not make the sensations stop? Maybe we do not know the long-term effects of these drugs but I am willing to take that risk for my sanity. So, I, for one, am glad that the drug companies “market” their drugs.
