Lot of black screen and music that's trying to sound imposing.
Didn't make the end. I don't think I made the middle.

Luckily, Fox is only responsible for the adverts, not the show.

Got it recorded and will watch tonight. I fucking hate TV advertisements.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I felt the first episode, like in the original, is just a primer for the rest. I notice this series has the same amount of episodes as the original, and that the next episode is about natural selection, again like the original. I think it's going to follow the same formula as Sagan's series.

I could have watched the second episode last night on Fox, but I'm waiting until tonight on National Geographic. Just because I'm not a liberal doesn't mean that I'm not holding it against Fox affiliates for cutting out some evolution parts! :lay:

Incredible.

Bloody religion! I see the BBC is embroiled in a bit of a censorship row so that they don't piss off some intolerant muzzies.
