Esta semana Bill Nye anunció que participará
en la nueva temporada de "Dancing with the Stars".
Lo cual es increíble, porque amo a Bill Nye
y no me importa en absoluto "Dancing with the Stars".
Pero es muy emocionante verlo
en un escenario totalmente diferente,
y ver su entusiasmo por la ciencia
y todo lo que él representa,
presentarse ante una audiencia
a la que tal vez
eso no le interesa. No sé cuánto en común
tendrán los fanáticos totales de Bill Nye
y los de "Dancing with the Stars",
pero eso es lo genial de un programa como ese,
donde pueden fusionarse ambos mundos,
y espero que los fanáticos
de "Dancing with the Stars"
se sientan mejor con eso.
¿Cómo le irá?
¿Será buen bailarín?
No sé si lo es.
Es bien alto, tal vez eso le ayude.
Pero es agradable
verlo en ese escenario.
Penn Jillette estuvo en el programa hace unos años.
Creo que en la temporada 6, o algo así.
A Penn Jillette no le fue nada bien.
Los jueces lo destrozaron.

English: 
This week Bill Nye announced that he would be
on the new season of Dancing with the Stars.
Which is awesome, because I love Bill Nye
and I don't care at all about Dancing with the Stars.
But it's very exciting to see him
in this totally new venue,
and to see him and his science enthusiasm
and everything he stands for,
kind of go out to
an audience that probably
doesn't care. I don't know that there's a lot of
overlap between hardcore Bill Nye fans and hardcore
Dancing with the Stars fans,
but that's the cool part about a show like that,
where they can kind of merge those two worlds,
and I would hope
the Dancing with the Stars
fans will be better off
because of it.
So, how will he do? You know,
is he a good dancer? I don't know
if he's a good dancer.
He's very tall, maybe that helps him.
But it's nice to see him
in that venue.
Penn Jillette was on the show like a
few years ago. I think season 6, or something.
Penn Jillette didn't do very well at all.
The judges trashed him.

Spanish: 
El público lo odió.
Fue el primero que sacaron esa temporada.
Ya veremos si a Bill Nye le va mejor.
No debería resultarle muy difícil hacerlo mejor.
Por lo menos mejor
que Penn Jillette.
¿Pero a quién se enfrentará?
Se enfrenta a gente
como Elizabeth Berkley de
"Salvado por la campana",
que interpretó a Jessie.
Se enfrentará al comediante
Bill Engvall.
Se enfrentará a Snooki.
Si Bill Engvall no vence a Snooki,
ya no me interesa la competencia.
Nos quedamos todos frustrados.
Pero es muy emocionante
ver a un tipo que
habla sobre las estrellas para ganarse la vida,
y está en un programa llamado
"Bailando con las Estrellas".
Y por el bien
de la humanidad, espero que le vaya bien,
y así regrese semana tras semana.
Y tal vez en medio de todo este baile,
pueda educar a algunos
en el proceso.

The viewers hated him. He was the
first person kicked off that season.
So, now we'll see if Bill Nye can do better.
It shouldn't be very hard for him to do one better
than at least-- one better
than what Penn Jillette did.
But who's he up against?
He's up against people
like Elizabeth Berkley from Saved by the Bell
way back when she played Jessie.
He's up against
comedian Bill Engvall.
He's up against Snooki.
If Bill Engvall doesn't beat Snooki,
I don't care what the competition is.
We should just
quit the world now.
But it's very exciting
to see a guy who
talks about the stars for a living,
be on a show called Dancing with the Stars.
And, you know, for
mankind's sake, I hope he does well,
so he can come back week after week.
And maybe in the midst of all this dancing,
he can educate some people
in the process.
