Journal: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" gets reboot on Fox Networks

I'm sure I'm no different than many Slashdotters in my memory of Carl Sagan's original "Cosmos" series back in the early 1980's. I even still have a signed copy of the book in my living room right now, from when I met Dr. Sagan in 1983 at Cornell University on a school field trip. But get this, Seth McFarlane - yes of Family Guy fame - is executive producing a new Cosmos - called "Cosmos: A Space-Time Odyssey." It will star Neil deGrasse Tyson as the narrator/host. I hope it rises to the level the original show did - it sure has a lot more competition now than Cosmos did in 1980.
