• Crowning Music of Awesome: The theme tune, and most of the background music. It's by Vangelis, after all. Also, the Symphony of Science auto-tune Voice Clip Songs all contain remixed Cosmos scenes, of which one is almost entirely based on Cosmos.
• Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped: Sagan spares no expense in stressing the importance of promoting science and knowledge of the world, as well as raising awareness of the dangers of irrationality.
• What the Hell, Casting Agency?: Seth MacFarlane is producing an update of the series to air on Fox? What the hell indeed.
  • Of course, it's also being written and produced by Ann Druyan, Sagan's widow, and Steven Soter, both of whom helped write the original Cosmos. It will also be hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson, who's probably one of the most worthy successors of Carl Sagan out there.
