Discover Science with Science Court

This half-hour show mixed courtroom drama with cool science experiments. It also had lots of humor! The main goal was to teach basic science ideas to kids. These ideas included the water cycle, how work and energy happen, gravity, and how things fly.

In each episode, a problem or disagreement would come up. This problem was always based on a science topic. The characters in the show used funny moments and even musical songs. This helped to explain difficult science ideas in a simple way. They also showed how to think like a scientist.

Meet the Main Characters

The show had two main lawyers: Alison Krempel and Doug Savage.

• Alison Krempel was voiced by Paula Plum. She was smart, kind, and always logical. Her clear arguments helped everyone understand the science points.
• Doug Savage was voiced by Bill Braudis. He was often clueless, a bit boastful, and sometimes unfair.

Both lawyers called on different expert witnesses to help their cases. Doug often brought in child experts, Dr. Julie Bean and Dr. Henry Fullerghast. But their science facts usually proved Doug wrong! Professor Nick Parsons, voiced by H. Jon Benjamin, was Alison Krempel's expert. He used real science to show why Doug Savage's ideas were silly. Alison's assistants, Micaela and Tim, also helped explain science concepts.

The show's cast also included comedians Paula Poundstone as Judge Stone. Fred Stoller played Fred, the court stenographer.
