What is The World According to Jeff Goldblum About
The World According to Jeff Goldblum is an educational documentary program driven by curiosity. In each episode, Goldblum (Jurassic Park, Independence Day) digs into the history and development of everyday items that people are passionate about, learns about how they are made, the culture of popularity surrounding them, and just what makes them exciting and appealing. Combining science, history, inspiration, and the people behind them are the elements that establish the formula for the show. Goldblum meets with several groups of people—the innovators and makers, passionate obsessives, and the members of the subcultures who have a personal connection to the object at hand.
Every week, join Goldblum as he queries, laughs, tastes, and dances his way through his exploration with a quirky and childlike enthusiasm that makes him a beloved popular culture icon. One element that makes the show appealing is that Goldblum doesn’t do much research before each episode; instead, he comes in with the basic information he knows and a bunch of questions. This helps keep the show feeling unscripted and as improvised as possible. Driven by his inquisitive nature and entertaining engagement with the people he interviews, Goldblum approaches each item with three angles, the How, Now, and Why: the story behind how it’s made; how it has become part of people’s everyday life; and the surprises behind the success and future of these items.
The second half of season two finds Goldblum motorcycles, birthdays, and what makes the perfect backyard as he explores passions and mysteries closer to home. He interviews speciality biker groups, chats with He spends scientists about how to solve the toughest puzzles, visits a backyard community garden, and more.
