Sure people like Bill Nye were great when we were kids, but I expect much more out of a show like Cosmos than what has Tyson provided. Plus, I would like Tyson to spend more time worrying about science than wasting valuable time addressing the people who made him feel butt-hurt about the age of the universe.The whole point of Cosmos wasn't to capture your wonder. It was for the adolescent who might become the next Michio Kaku or Carl Sagan. Hence the cartoons and the lack of in depth science. It was a primetime show, FFS. They aren't going to do an hour on susy or quantum mechanics.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
