[[[Some readers have suggested that this debate is a very good thing, but I simply can’t agree. I suspect that such optimism stems from their respect for Nye’s accomplishment as a science presenter, and his demeanor as a nice guy. But Nye never had Ken Ham on his children’s show.
And I can’t shake the feeling that part of Nye’s motivation is to stay in the media spotlight. But doing it this way is a terrible mistake.]]]
Personality I think its just part of a campaign to see Mr. Nye’s show returned to TV, as they say, just follow the money.
Well since he flamed out horribly on Dances with the Stars, perhaps he’s returning to what he thinks are his roots.
Late night sketch comedy?
Well, back in the 90s he was a regular on “Almost Live!”, a show on KING-TV in Seattle which aired before “Saturday Night Live.”
I think this comment on his debate on Evolution is instructive.
