I like Bill Nye, but I think he misses opportunities, learning moments for his opponents on the topics of climate/evolution/whatever, watching both the Ham debate and the recent visit to Noahs Ark-ville. For example, when Ham asked "do you think this girl is an animal" or something, IIRC Bill demurred and said something like Yes, she is a mammal or something - my opinion of course, but he could have driven a home run and demonstrated Yes, I do because look, she moves like one, has a mouth like one, has hair like one, and look she goes to the bathroom like one, has all the body parts of one - And if we go into the lab and compare the DNA, blood, urine, ad infinitum, we can show there is nary a difference there too, and therefore yes, it s/b clear to everyone standing here she is more closer to an animal compared to anything else you know or have seen in the known universe. It would likely still fail to convince most but not all. That said, I think he will do a good job keeping the interest of the viewer and can drive it home.
