The show exceeded my expectations. Tyson is the perfect choice to host.
I think they rushed through a few topics in the opener, and I hope they go back to it in more detail. Ex. they barely mentioned Uranus and Neptune, and that there are worlds bigger than Pluto in the outer reaches. The animation is ok, but I preferred the use of actors in the historical vignettes in the original series. The music was cliche movie-score stuff. The original series had more distinctive themes. The show really loses its flow with the ads. I'm sure it will be out on DVD for Xmas, with many extras.
