I disagree!! (Off-Topic)

I freaking loved it!

Sure, some things could be cleaned up but honestly there is so little science programming on network television that it's just incredibly refreshing to see. I mean, NdGT said very close to the beginning the show that Cosmos is about the "scientific method and testable hypotheses"... a not so subtle jab at the non-scientific shows (think History channel "aliens" or "ghosts" shows) or even real world non-scientific theories that are out there. That made me so happy I almost lost my pants. This is real science! Excitement!

I have a feeling that the next episodes are going to follow a much more linear path and tell a story about specific science topics that will be done in, hopefully, a more Sagan-like way.

One thing I've heard, and that I agree with, is that Cosmos isn't for astronerds, but the astronerd curious on down.
