(7,321 posts)3. there was a youtube of Neil Tyson's Cosmos posted here ..
a while ago, and i just finished watching. for some reason it's deleted from du now. maybe it was deleted on youtube for copyright issues.
Anyway, Tyson gave a great tribute to Sagan. and I thought he did a really great job of the production.
I don't have a tv so can't watch next episodes on foxs. I hope pbs picks it up eventually. Wonder why it was on fox in the first place- kind of weird, considering.

and he produced the show.
He's a huge Carl Sagan fan.

And the music, production, pace, level of information was perfect IMO. This program changed me back then. I watched the new Cosmos. Hope it's as good as Sagan's rendering as it progresses, but then I'm perhaps not the target audience on this one. Thanks for posting.
