(I feel like I should point out that I don’t think either of them are wrong for having a bit of an ego. It’s really hard to be right all the time and surrounded by a sea of idiots without turning into an exasperated jerk – frankly, I think they should both be commended for resisting assholery as well as they do.)
I honestly barely pay attention to BIll Nye because I used to watch him on Almost Live, so it’s basically impossible for me to take him seriously, so you’re asking the wrong person.
Admittedly, I never watched Bill Nye Saves the World, so I don’t know firsthand how egotistical (or otherwise) he was. But still, that title alone says something…
I did watch the obscure Planet Green show Living with Ed, however, in which Bill Nye was portrayed as the rival/antagonist and kind of an asshole. Who knows how much that was being played up for the camera, though.
I wonder white the difference could be?
I’m sure that’s it for some people and I personally like him, but he does have a bit of an ego on him and I think that turns people off.
Is Bill Nye’s ego not at least as large, though?

Bill’s TV career started in sketch comedy (hence me being unable to take him seriously), so I wouldn’t be shocked if it was played up for the cameras.
