I enjoy bad science in movies and
television. Mostly for the same reasons some people love bad acting and
bad dialogue. It has a so-bad-it’s-good quality that makes it funny. But now
that I’m nearly a fully trained molecular biologist, I feel I have something of
a responsibility to do more than point and laugh. Mainly, I want so many
viewers to be pointing and laughing that producers are embarrassed to let such
bad science stand.
