You all probably know about this, since I am usually several years behind on TV viewing.
Ann Druyan, Carl Sagan’s widow, and Seth McFarlane, who gave us Ted, have produced a new Cosmos series with Neil deGrasse Tyson in the place of Sagan. It is a wonderful production, with graphics so intense that our recent houseguests, who are our age, were enthralled, could not look away. I imagine that it would have the same effect on kids. There will never be another Sagan, but Tyson is very warm and has that ability to make complex matters understandable to us, a sign of true intelligence.
The first thirteen episodes are available on Netflix without ads, and current episodes are to be aired on Fox and National Geographic Channel.
