Series info and concept

Genius by Stephen Hawking is a new scientific documentary that premiered on PBS and National Geographic on May 18, 2016. It is produced by Bigger Bang and executive produced by Ben Bowie and Iain Riddick. The first season contains six one-hour parts. Stephen Hawking narrates all of the tasks that are offered to the participants and provides insight as to the historical context of the discoveries in question.

The series tackles popular scientific questions and attempts to demonstrate that ordinary people can achieve an understanding of the ways in which the greatest scientific discoveries were made. Stephen Hawking poses puzzling questions and tasks to three participants who have no advanced scientific training to help them arrive at the same conclusions as the scientists who have made the breakthrough before. The first episode discussed the possibility of time travel, and the participants actually time-traveled themselves by the end of the episode.
