Emily Calandrelli, star and host of Netflix's 'Emily's Wonder Lab,' shared a post about being a female scientist that has now gone viral.
“For many years I pitched science shows to large science networks and was unsuccessful,” she wrote on her Facebook page. “I would receive the feedback that “the majority of our audience is male, so we just don’t know if they’d relate to a female host.”
Her show is all about Calandrelli doing science experiments with children and things they’re naturally into. She produces and hosts “Xploration Outer Space” on Fox, but wanted to do a show more geared toward children rather than adults and students. So she tried really hard to make that happen, but to no avail — until Netflix picked up “Emily’s Wonder Lab” last year.
“I filmed the entire thing 9 months pregnant,” she continued. “So there is now a female-led science show on the biggest streaming platform in the world hosted by a pregnant woman – available worldwide.”
