National Geographic's chaotic little cousin asks 'what if science, but make it spicy?'
Season 8 • Episode 17
LatestNaked Science is an American documentary television series that premiered in 2004 on the National Geographic Channel. The program features various subjects related to science and technology. Some of the views expressed might be considered fringe or pseudo-science, and some of the scientists may present opinions which have not been properly peer-reviewed or are not widely accepted within their scientific communities, in particular on topics such as Bermuda Triangle or Atlantis for example.
Production
Aggressive CGI recreations of Bermuda Triangle disasters
Writing
Narration treats wild theories with straight-faced respect
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Naked Science arrived at peak 'Ancient Aliens' era, when cable channels realized fringe science pulled bigger numbers than peer-reviewed boredom.
The show's Wikipedia disclaimer about 'not properly peer-reviewed' opinions is basically National Geographic's embarrassed footnote to an entire era of programming.
