‘Cosmos’ reboot news induces geek whiplash

From the AP via NPR:

The Fox network is bringing back Carl Sagan's universe-spanning docu-series "Cosmos,"

Hoorah!

and "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane is on board for the ride.

WTF?

The host will be astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, Fox said.

Hoorah!

"It doesn't really feel like a natural fit on Fox," the network's entertainment president, Kevin Reilly, acknowledged. "But we just like the challenge of it."

Ooo, that does not sound promising at all...
