There's an earnestness to Cosmos that could read as corny to the jaded. Last night Druyan and Tyson brought the first episode to Austin's Paramount Theatre, and although the series is made for television, seeing this vast subject matter tackled on the big screen felt just right. Who else could captain today's Ship of the Imagination but beloved rockstar astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson? A Personal Journey was hosted and written by the great Carl Sagan, and his widow and co-writer Ann Druyan has been trying to bring a successor to the screen for years. This Sunday sees the Fox premiere of Cosmos: A SpaceTime Odyssey, a follow-up to the 1980 science documentary series Cosmos: A Personal Journey.
