FOX To Host New Cosmos

Posted by timothy on from the with-nancy-cartwright-narration-please dept.

twocows writes "FOX is set to make a new season of Carl Sagan's 'Cosmos: A Personal Voyage,' hosted by Neil Degrasse Tyson and written by none other than Ann Druyan (Carl Sagan's widow). Let's hope they don't screw it up like every other good show they've aired in the past decade."

    Given this is Fox, they will most likely attempt to avoid evolution as much as humanly possible, or present "other theories" along with it.

    You are like General Custer hating Gandhi because he was an Indian.

    It should be noted that General Custer did NOT hate Indians. He rather admired them, actually. Alas, his job didn't care whether he liked them or not, he still had to protect the "settlers" (yes, even when the settlers were doing illegal things).

    Of course, this was the period of the "noble savage" concept, which automagically made Indians kind of cool to people who had never encountered them.
