Totally. Trying to recreate tv magic can veer off into cringe territory if not executed perfectly. There was no cringe here. I think her character was the most difficult not to make look awkward, but she nailed it like she's been on tv her entire life. It's glorious.
It could only be "netflix worthy" if he messed everything up with forced diversity and abandoned real science in favor of nonsense certain people won't get offended about.
AHH!! I watched every episode of Beakman's World on endless repeat as a kid, and this was just an overload to nostalgia. Spot-on tribute. And the video was just plain awesome and informative as always, gotta love this channel!
Hehe, fun fact: I watched Beakman on a color TV back in the day, but it was missing the portion that displayed green. So for years I thought Beakman had an off-white lab coat :P
I had no color issues, but the lab coat always seemed like it should have been some off color. Especially since he made the whole show seem like something thrown together at the back of a junkyard. Loved that show, too bad its reruns died with Saturday morning cartoons.
This was phenomenally put together. What a blast from the past to see Beakman appear and help out. Fantastically edited to perfectly resemble a Beakman episode!
+ PhantomStrider Who is the Beakman guy? Did he have a TV show or a YT channel? If so from what country? Never saw him here in Australia and from his accent I am assuming US?
I was not a kid when Beakman was on.. I was a full-grown adult.. but I was working as the art director of a kid's Science Museum. Man, he was a HUGE inspiration! It's hard to fathom just how HARD it is to take scientific concepts and make them not only fun, but understandable. I LOVE Beakman! I was almost in tears when he popped up.
As a kid I watched Beakman's World more religiously than going to church. I even wrote in as a kid and he answered my question! I wish I still had the post card verifying my question
I love how in his conference presentations, Captain D very humbly admits to his science errors in this video (especially for putting them in the mouth of Beakman). Alan is a treasure.
Yeah I thought so too: it is this section at 7:50 where he talks about "potential energy increasing" as the magnets get closer. It's the magnetic force increasing (as a function of 1/distance cubed) if I remember correctly.
@@peacefroglorax875 according to wiki "In physics, potential energy is the energy held by an object because of its position relative to other objects, stresses within itself, its electric charge, or other factors." so its potential energy of magnetic force.
@@dekufiremage7808 It's not just "technically wrong", it's fundamentally wrong to say that the potential energy is increasing. And it's no more complicated to say that it decreases. It's just an error and wasn't intended.
This episode/tribute is such a labour of love. You got so many of the tiny details that made Beakman's World so entertaining to young science lovers. My nostalgia is in overdrive lol. This is absolutely fantastic work!
I'm so very sad that it's taken me this long to find this channel. This was a perfect recreation of the Beakman's World aesthetic. Huge props to the Captain D & the whoever was responsible for shooting/editing this vid :). Also, it's time for a Beakman revival. If Bill Nye could do it, so can you!
"This man instilled a love for science in millions of kids" Fact. I am one of them. Science class became my favorite and would catch Beakman every Saturday. And thank you Capn D for keeping that love alive in your own way. Never stop expanding your mind.

1st - I'm having a blast from the past, and this is not even in the languange I was used to watch beakman (brazilian here). Thank you so much you guys. 2nd - The only thing missing from that nearly perfect video is an intro with two penguins watching tv on the north pole.
Congratulations, this feels like an actual Beakman episode, the acting, the angles and shots, the SFX, the animations, even the script and humor. Thanks for such a nostalgia trip
Mr. Desilush, You probably won’t ever read this it thank you so much for every little detail you put into making this video, it was edited with all the quips, sounds, music, segments, quirks, tone, feeling and visualization of the original show. Simply outstanding
I loved this show so much. I remember sending a letter once. Having just learned how to properly write one at school, I neatly copied the address, made a funny-looking envelope, and asked my parents to take it to the post office. Thing is, I live in Brazil and I watched it dubbed in Portuguese, so I wrote the letter in that language, thinking Beakman would understand it. It wouldn't be surprising if the show didn't even exist anymore when it aired in Brazil, because it's cheaper to purchase rights to air old programs. I have no idea as to what happened with that letter.
Cute story, @Pedro Câmara I also live in Brazil and Beakman's World powerfully influenced my love for knowledge. The mousetrap scene in the Madame Curie episode never left my memory. This is my first time hearing Paul Zaloom's voice. I watched the show dubbed on TV Cultura in the 90s. I'm now discovering that the original series was shown in the US with only 2 years in advance, from 1994 to 1994.
There is a deliberate dumbing-down going on.... creationism, multi-culti, etc.... Its all about breeding "election cattle" to compensate for democracy......
@@CrystalMarieShannon you’re so incredibly welcome. Also, how did you manage to get this bizarre gig? It’s unlike anything he’s ever done and it’s so strange he hasn’t done more of this included you. By far my favorite video of his. Your chemistry is worthy of more.
1) Bill Ny is an actor, he was never a scientist. 2) Given his recent SJW turn and propagating of bullshit, I doubt CD would want to have anything to do with Bill Nye now...
Wait.. In the first episode with Holly, we see CD as a baby, and he's fully chrome. And this episode shows us that the peach colored part is just a mask. Then.. What in the heck is the black division, canonically? (that signifies the bleedover of reality and fiction) Is it paint, is it a scar?
A friend and I tried to make a perpetual motion machine for an elementary school science fair. It's the sort of idea that sounds possible to your lizard brain, but doesn't hold up when you know anything about physics.
I agree, Captain should be among the most subscribed channels on YT. I've been on a 2 day binge of this channel (since I discovered it yesterday). I've never been so addicted to a channel before.
I have watched this video countless times and every single time it puts a smile on my face. When Captain Disillusion says that "This man instilled a love for science on million of kids" is true. If by any chance Paul Zaloom reads my comment I would like to thank him because he made me get interested in science, be curious and do "experiments" at a young age. Thank you so very much sir! Best wishes from a true fan of your show from El Salvador! =D
Right in my childhood..... Beakman got old....want to hug that man and thank him for making me love science Programs like that doesnt exist anymore....
@Edward Starski I was going to quip about you having this backwards, but obviously the truth is that you have a much deeper misconception. Statements like what you just made are exactly why the likes of Beakman's World still ought to exist. Unravelling the tapestry of misunderstanding, preconceived notions, and deliberate ignorance takes more than just well explained facts.
Well, it's been four years and I think it's all crystal clear to us now: this exact video was peak UA-cam. We're in the long tail and these golden days are never returning.
I love the video, and I'm a huge Beakman fan - I loved it growing up and my kids watch it today. There is a small mistake in the science in the video though. At 7:25, Beakman explains how magnets' field interaction increases in strength as they approach, but he also says that potential energy increases at this time as well. It doesn't; it's actually decreasing (though the force between them is definitely going up.) The magnets have maximum potential energy at infinite separation and lose energy as they approach in the same way that a ball gains potential energy as it is moved away from Earth. That's why it requires energy to separate them once they're stuck together (at a potential energy minimum.)
Thanks! But I'm afraid you are slightly mistaken. Yes, potential energy between two magnets (with opposite poles facing) is higher, the wider the distance between them. But not indefinitely, only up until the outer edges of the magnetic fields' attraction. The idea in that part of the video is that Beakman brings the magnets from a distance where they don't interact at all to a distance where they start to, thereby increasing the potential energy.
As the magnets get closer with opposite poles facing, the potential energy becomes more negative, not more positive. If the same poles were facing, they would become more positive. Magnetic fields don't have set distance limits. They go as far as photons go.
Think of potential energy like height. Positive potential energy (same poles facing) is like a hill (positive height). To move them closer, you need to go up the hill. This requires work or kinetic energy. Negative potential energy (opposite poles facing) is like a valley. Moving closer lets you do work, or increases your kinetic energy. Moving closer decreases your potential energy by making it more negative. This assumes you define zero potential energy as occurring an infinite distance away.
+Scott Barrie Hmm, well the "magnetic potential energy" section of this article (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_energy) says "If the opposite poles are held apart, the potential energy will be highest when they are at the edge of their attraction" It doesn't say it's highest when they are infinitely far apart. Is that incorrect?
For real, practical magnets on Earth, infinite separation and "far enough apart that you can't feel them attracting in any way" are essentially the same thing. However, if you put two magnets in space at that separation, the lack of all friction will show that they are still attracted to one another reasonably strongly. The force goes to zero as you approach infinite separation, so the potential energy is at a maximum at infinity. Any closer than infinity means a decrease in energy. Practically speaking, "pretty far apart" is effectively zero, but you can never increase the potential energy of two magnets by bringing their opposite poles closer together. (Their like poles are at a maximum when touching.) Blargh, I missed an earlier comment, so part of this didn't make sense in context. In short, yes, magnetic fields extend infinitely far into space, in exactly the same way that gravitational or electric fields do.
Beakman's World was the show that first piqued my interest in science and understanding the world around me. I even wrote in to the show, because that was something that you could do. I would not be the person I am today if it were not for Beakman; He truly had that large of an impact on 10 year-old me.
I discovered this channel a last week and while I was watching through your videos I thought to myself, "This guy reminds me of that science guy with the weird hair and green lab coat that I used to watch as a kid." I couldn't remember Beekman's name, I was like eight years old. Then this video came up and I couldn't believe it! That's him! Love your videos Captain! I don't know how it took me so long to find you!
@5:00 Actually, over a long enough span of time, the spinning wheel will grind down to a halt, having radiated its energy as gravitational waves. It would take a very, very, very long time, mind you. Edit: Actually, a spinning wheel does not radiate gravitational waves unless it is non-homogeneous. Quoting WIkipedia: "In general terms, gravitational waves are radiated by objects whose motion involves acceleration and its change, provided that the motion is not perfectly spherically symmetric (like an expanding or contracting sphere) or rotationally symmetric (like a spinning disk or sphere). A simple example of this principle is a spinning dumbbell. If the dumbbell spins around its axis of symmetry, it will not radiate gravitational waves; if it tumbles end over end, as in the case of two planets orbiting each other, it will radiate gravitational waves." A spoked bicycle wheel would radiate, but a disc wheel wouldn't.
Not only that. Entropy would cause the material in the wheel to gradually evaporate. Also stray materials moving through space and inconsistencies between the various tiny gravitational forces moving through the universe will cause to stop over a very long time span.
Also, space isn't QUITE empty. There are trace amounts of matter, mainly hydrogen, so there would be a nearly-zero-but-not-quite-zero amount of friction. Like you said, though, it would still take a VERY long time to slow down.
i feel like i'm meant to be a child watching this, and yet it's still amusing and informative, that's when you know that you've made an excellent show!
tons of big-ish youtube comments with hundreds of likes on each comment on this video. Like, have I just been ignoring the comment section for the past few months?
I was twelve years old when Beakman's World came out, and I was instantly a fan. Paul Zaloom is awesome. I was sad to learn that Mark Ritts (Lester) passed away in 2009.
I'm from Brazil, and a write portuguese. O Beakman foi uma parte muito importante da minha infância e esse vide realmente fez lembrar de como era bom aquela época, poderia ter mais videos como esse, e é claro se o ator que faz o Beakmam quisesse fazer ... mas otimo vídeo e com certeza irei divulga-lo e muitas visualizações iram aparecer .... Parabéns, congratulations.
this is a work of art, everything is perfect... from the script to the timing, editing, everything! Thanks Captain, i'm genuinely happier compared to 12 minutes ago. my nieces are going to love this.
I had no expectations of ever seeing Paul Zaloom play Beakman again- so this was an incredible (and touching) surprise! His voice sounds very different to me now, but he's still got it. Thank you for making this episode happen!!❤
I can't describe the feelings this man bring to me. Thank you, Captain. My captain! Than you even more, Beakman. A whole generation of brazilian scientists only exists because of you!
Beakman taught me to both to love science and be skeptic of common knowledge without experimentation and reproduction. Thanks to him I believe I am a much more informed and critically thinking adult, even though I am not a hard science scientist (Bachelors in Literature and Linguistics). He also taught me to trust in science at the same time I am skeptic of it, to always understand that science marches on but that I should always keep an watchful eye for those who want to tarnish the good name of science for their own agenda. Beakman, Brazil is, right now, in a very dark period filled with misinformation and a hatred of science... but those who fight this perception are most likely those who grew up watching your marvelous show. Our condolences for Mark Ritts. It looked like you two were a great duo.
This is AWESOME! Beakman's World was one of my favorite shows growing up. Bill Nye was ok about just showing and explaining science, but Beakman made it fun! And props to Cap D for the level of accuracy in recreating the look and feel of an actual Beakman's World episode from the random sound effects, to Ray's appearance. The only way this could have been better would have been to have Lester in the episode too. RIP Lester (Mark Ritts)

Hahaha, one of my friends had a lot of their electricity stolen by a shitty neighbour... Definitely cost quite a lot xD But hey, those dodgy crackheads must've felt like they'd found a free energy outlet, for sure, hahaha.

Can we just appreciate how incredible Ellie’s (Crystal Shannon) acting is? Literally the best acting i’ve ever seen on youtube.
She really nails the shtick
wow!! thank you!! I appreciate that very much!
@@CrystalMarieShannon you’re so incredibly welcome. Also, how did you manage to get this bizarre gig? It’s unlike anything he’s ever done and it’s so strange he hasn’t done more of this included you. By far my favorite video of his. Your chemistry is worthy of more.

HOLY SHIT IT'S BEAKMAN.
The superior TV sciencist.
Na na na na na na na na na na na?
literally the words that came out of my mouth
It’s a fake beakman in the beginning of the vid it says it’s a fan fic
1) Bill Ny is an actor, he was never a scientist.
2) Given his recent SJW turn and propagating of bullshit, I doubt CD would want to have anything to do with Bill Nye now...
Bruh this is amazing pseudo nostalgia weirdness. This is a great show scratching an itch I didn't know I had. so happy right now.
lol. same here!
i thought i was the only oe who was reminded of like 90s nickalodean and pbs shows!
I'm not lying, I'm watching this like 100 times now.
Visual effects, Sound design and Editing in this video is so satisfying.
haha me, I've watched it 6 times from begining to end so far xD
***** I used to watch LT with my son; eat "healthy candies"... hahaha I don't see much of a similarity but I kind of understand what u mean =)
8 years later, this is still UA-cam's most amazing crossover. What a joy.
This is one of the highest quality UA-cam video's I have seen in quite a while
I just saw 1 video.... 3 days later 74 episodes watched. I CANNOT have enough!!!!
Lol
I might just have the same condition.
same here
Stayed up until 2am watching yesterday, watching at midnight today.
found the channel 2 days ago
Oh my gosh guys, litterally the same here lolz #relatable
7:13 I like how this implies that Captain is silver all over and just wears a skin-colored mask over the top of his head
That has always been the joke yes.
that’s the truth !
Wait.. In the first episode with Holly, we see CD as a baby, and he's fully chrome. And this episode shows us that the peach colored part is just a mask. Then.. What in the heck is the black division, canonically? (that signifies the bleedover of reality and fiction) Is it paint, is it a scar?
@@GumSkyloard it's his mask leaking/melting
I guess you could say it was a "fatal attraction".... I'll let myself out now.
This day still lives on in my memory as one of the most scientifically magical! ✨
Wait, are you Ellie?

HOW ARE YOU SO CUTEDORABLE 🤯
You were amazing!
How... the HELL... did you get Beakman?
Through the power of SCIENCE!
Should have known you'd follow Captain D.
And yeah, this is amazing.
FUck man I feel like I'm watching saturday morning tv all over again. This guy -was- is my hero.
It's just special effects dudes, no biggie.
I live in Europe so.... who the hell is Beakman
I call that " A waste of potential". Classic Beakman!
I laughed outloud. God I miss this guy.

You never fail to amaze, a more than excellent video!!
I just looked at your channel. I like it
me too :)
Me three! =-)
yay I'm relevant
Is It Real?
Heehee... Yep. Still watching your videos right now. Lots to catch up on.
A friend and I tried to make a perpetual motion machine for an elementary school science fair. It's the sort of idea that sounds possible to your lizard brain, but doesn't hold up when you know anything about physics.
The cheesiness is MST3K-worthy. Captain D deserves much respect. And I forgot how funny Beakman is.
This was so excellent. You, Paul and Shannon have something here. Throw it on Kickstarter and let's fund the first season.
William Hall SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
Most underrated channel on yt
This channel is not underrated. People know it's great.
I agree, Captain should be among the most subscribed channels on YT. I've been on a 2 day binge of this channel (since I discovered it yesterday). I've never been so addicted to a channel before.
I have watched this video countless times and every single time it puts a smile on my face. When Captain Disillusion says that "This man instilled a love for science on million of kids" is true. If by any chance Paul Zaloom reads my comment I would like to thank him because he made me get interested in science, be curious and do "experiments" at a young age. Thank you so very much sir! Best wishes from a true fan of your show from El Salvador! =D
I get that this is almost 2 1/2 years old but that was AWESOME! 👍
It *kinda* did haha
ua-cam.com/video/aO3JgPUJ6iQ/v-deo.html
I mean he only releases a video every month so it's not really weird to be commenting on multiple year old videos
Watching from 2020 here
I just discovered the Captain and now I’m binging.
Choo choo, I just jumped aboard too :)
Enjoy your binge!
I'm searching things on bing too!
Go to AA if you can't control your binges.

Right in my childhood.....
Beakman got old....want to hug that man and thank him for making me love science
Programs like that doesnt exist anymore....
Try looking up Prof Julius Sumner Miller, he was doing it in the 70s
You got old too.
@Edward Starski I was going to quip about you having this backwards, but obviously the truth is that you have a much deeper misconception. Statements like what you just made are exactly why the likes of Beakman's World still ought to exist. Unravelling the tapestry of misunderstanding, preconceived notions, and deliberate ignorance takes more than just well explained facts.
"I can't compete with that sexy beard" Bruh that's such an underrated line.
6:18 "a waste of potential"
LOL.Very punny.
A Beackman's big fan from Brazil! Congrats Captain Disillusion, Ellie and Paul Zaloom to bring us this pure nostalgia! You are awesome!!
This was exactly like a Beakman’s World episode. I love it
Well, it's been four years and I think it's all crystal clear to us now: this exact video was peak UA-cam. We're in the long tail and these golden days are never returning.
The golden days of UA-cam were around 2010
@@drumboarder1 no
It's now been eight years. Everything continues to get worse. Humanity may be circling the drain. This might have been peak homo sapiens.
I love the video, and I'm a huge Beakman fan - I loved it growing up and my kids watch it today.
There is a small mistake in the science in the video though. At 7:25, Beakman explains how magnets' field interaction increases in strength as they approach, but he also says that potential energy increases at this time as well. It doesn't; it's actually decreasing (though the force between them is definitely going up.) The magnets have maximum potential energy at infinite separation and lose energy as they approach in the same way that a ball gains potential energy as it is moved away from Earth. That's why it requires energy to separate them once they're stuck together (at a potential energy minimum.)
Thanks! But I'm afraid you are slightly mistaken. Yes, potential energy between two magnets (with opposite poles facing) is higher, the wider the distance between them. But not indefinitely, only up until the outer edges of the magnetic fields' attraction. The idea in that part of the video is that Beakman brings the magnets from a distance where they don't interact at all to a distance where they start to, thereby increasing the potential energy.
As the magnets get closer with opposite poles facing, the potential energy becomes more negative, not more positive. If the same poles were facing, they would become more positive.
Magnetic fields don't have set distance limits. They go as far as photons go.
Think of potential energy like height. Positive potential energy (same poles facing) is like a hill (positive height). To move them closer, you need to go up the hill. This requires work or kinetic energy.
Negative potential energy (opposite poles facing) is like a valley. Moving closer lets you do work, or increases your kinetic energy. Moving closer decreases your potential energy by making it more negative. This assumes you define zero potential energy as occurring an infinite distance away.
+Scott Barrie Hmm, well the "magnetic potential energy" section of this article (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_energy) says "If the opposite poles are held apart, the potential energy will be highest when they are at the edge of their attraction" It doesn't say it's highest when they are infinitely far apart. Is that incorrect?
For real, practical magnets on Earth, infinite separation and "far enough apart that you can't feel them attracting in any way" are essentially the same thing. However, if you put two magnets in space at that separation, the lack of all friction will show that they are still attracted to one another reasonably strongly.
The force goes to zero as you approach infinite separation, so the potential energy is at a maximum at infinity. Any closer than infinity means a decrease in energy. Practically speaking, "pretty far apart" is effectively zero, but you can never increase the potential energy of two magnets by bringing their opposite poles closer together. (Their like poles are at a maximum when touching.)
Blargh, I missed an earlier comment, so part of this didn't make sense in context. In short, yes, magnetic fields extend infinitely far into space, in exactly the same way that gravitational or electric fields do.
Got a bit emotional when Beakman gave his speech on the changing world of science. You guys are awesome!
Martha Pozo yes
Me too. *tear*
We loved beakman in mexico too!
it was the best thing on tv in the afternoon
So did we in Brazil.
mickeynotmouse i heard about that on NPR!
benracer Which show did?
Argentina loves Beakman too!
Beakman's World was the show that first piqued my interest in science and understanding the world around me. I even wrote in to the show, because that was something that you could do. I would not be the person I am today if it were not for Beakman; He truly had that large of an impact on 10 year-old me.
Dude, I'm crying! I love Beakman and it's so good to see he again at a show! Thanks for it!!!
What an absolutely amazing episode. Better than professional Television! I could see your show as a full length Netflix series no problem!
That was actually Paul Zaloom? That's amazing!
I discovered this channel a last week and while I was watching through your videos I thought to myself, "This guy reminds me of that science guy with the weird hair and green lab coat that I used to watch as a kid." I couldn't remember Beekman's name, I was like eight years old. Then this video came up and I couldn't believe it! That's him!
Love your videos Captain! I don't know how it took me so long to find you!
That was fabulously entertaining!
Hi yall
As a European I've never heard about Beakman's World before.
But every new CD episode is just as perfect as the one before.
They used to show it in Ireland when I was very young. It was fun!
Adderkleet - not in Austria, unfortunately
They showed it in Spain as well.
HOLY CAMEO, CAPTAIN D! I've not watched Beakman since I was a wee kid.
Thanks for taking me back to my childhood!
@5:00 Actually, over a long enough span of time, the spinning wheel will grind down to a halt, having radiated its energy as gravitational waves. It would take a very, very, very long time, mind you.
Edit: Actually, a spinning wheel does not radiate gravitational waves unless it is non-homogeneous. Quoting WIkipedia: "In general terms, gravitational waves are radiated by objects whose motion involves acceleration and its change, provided that the motion is not perfectly spherically symmetric (like an expanding or contracting sphere) or rotationally symmetric (like a spinning disk or sphere). A simple example of this principle is a spinning dumbbell. If the dumbbell spins around its axis of symmetry, it will not radiate gravitational waves; if it tumbles end over end, as in the case of two planets orbiting each other, it will radiate gravitational waves." A spoked bicycle wheel would radiate, but a disc wheel wouldn't.
Not only that. Entropy would cause the material in the wheel to gradually evaporate. Also stray materials moving through space and inconsistencies between the various tiny gravitational forces moving through the universe will cause to stop over a very long time span.
why did you put an @
@@conner3626 Isn't that how one points to a specific time code on the video?
@@daniel.u.thibault You don't have to use it anymore. You can just do any mm:ss form.
Also, space isn't QUITE empty. There are trace amounts of matter, mainly hydrogen, so there would be a nearly-zero-but-not-quite-zero amount of friction. Like you said, though, it would still take a VERY long time to slow down.
i feel like i'm meant to be a child watching this, and yet it's still amusing and informative, that's when you know that you've made an excellent show!
There should be a petition to get Beakman on youtube. Patreon should be helpful. We need to make a smart inspired generation again!
You can patreon Captain Disillusion and ask him to bring Beakman more frequently hehe (just an idea :P )
Well that too lol.
Really happy that Captain D is getting lots of attention now. This guy deserves so much more
The Reddit bump?
tons of big-ish youtube comments with hundreds of likes on each comment on this video. Like, have I just been ignoring the comment section for the past few months?
I was twelve years old when Beakman's World came out, and I was instantly a fan. Paul Zaloom is awesome. I was sad to learn that Mark Ritts (Lester) passed away in 2009.
Pretty sure this is about to push me over into the Patreon support.
I'm from Brazil, and a write portuguese. O Beakman foi uma parte muito importante da minha infância e esse vide realmente fez lembrar de como era bom aquela época, poderia ter mais videos como esse, e é claro se o ator que faz o Beakmam quisesse fazer ... mas otimo vídeo e com certeza irei divulga-lo e muitas visualizações iram aparecer .... Parabéns, congratulations.
Brazil loves this video, here in brazil "beakman's world" is one of the best shows, i want see beakman again in this channel!
Wow, so cool to see Paul playing Beakman so many years later. Hasn't changed a bit since the golden days of watching his show on TLC.
BEESTT EPISOODE EVEEER!!!!
The only thing better would be the penguins from the intro.

Just. Too. Much.
***** Yeah but it makes watching these videos a pain in the ass ... but maybe I am just overly sensitive.
and Mark Ritts as Lester
It was so nostalgic ;-;
plz make more videos with Beakman! PLEASE! Brazil loves this guy!
I know the video is old but hey, it hasn't aged a bit for me :) This is what youtube should be made of.
this is a work of art, everything is perfect... from the script to the timing, editing, everything! Thanks Captain, i'm genuinely happier compared to 12 minutes ago. my nieces are going to love this.
This was awesome. A hit of Nostalgia, and great production value.
That was 12 minutes? Never have a watched a YT video that long and been left wanting more.
I had no expectations of ever seeing Paul Zaloom play Beakman again- so this was an incredible (and touching) surprise! His voice sounds very different to me now, but he's still got it. Thank you for making this episode happen!!❤

@@joshuatobias927 You probably are
Did you watch Rick and Morty
@@ArachnidAbby yup
it is over 9000
I can't describe the feelings this man bring to me. Thank you, Captain. My captain! Than you even more, Beakman. A whole generation of brazilian scientists only exists because of you!
Beakman taught me to both to love science and be skeptic of common knowledge without experimentation and reproduction. Thanks to him I believe I am a much more informed and critically thinking adult, even though I am not a hard science scientist (Bachelors in Literature and Linguistics).
He also taught me to trust in science at the same time I am skeptic of it, to always understand that science marches on but that I should always keep an watchful eye for those who want to tarnish the good name of science for their own agenda.
Beakman, Brazil is, right now, in a very dark period filled with misinformation and a hatred of science... but those who fight this perception are most likely those who grew up watching your marvelous show.
Our condolences for Mark Ritts. It looked like you two were a great duo.
That was great seeing Beakman again, they NEEDED to have two arguing birds at the end of the clip though as a bonus
YES! Herb and Don
This is AWESOME! Beakman's World was one of my favorite shows growing up. Bill Nye was ok about just showing and explaining science, but Beakman made it fun! And props to Cap D for the level of accuracy in recreating the look and feel of an actual Beakman's World episode from the random sound effects, to Ray's appearance. The only way this could have been better would have been to have Lester in the episode too. RIP Lester (Mark Ritts)
this should be a running show on TV. this guy deserves way more followers
This is one of the best vids ever put on UA-cam.
I LOVE YOU, BEAKMAN!!!
I remember watching Beakman's World when I was but a weeeee lad. He had an old guy dressed up as a giant rat too, right?
