I don't mean to come off as sounding anti-Brian (I do enjoy his BBC specials, I really really do), but he comes off as too 'dreamy' for me, like he's always on huge doses of valium or something.

I agree, and Neil blends the 'dreamy' vibe (see his PBS doc Origins)

And the hardline "this poo poo is important, you fuckers" vibe as seen on his recent stint on Real Time.

Origins is really good, easy to follow and available on Netflix.

Everyone should be psyched for the new Cosmos because it'll be an up-to-date science doc with network money and production behind it and Neil will be a great host - he knows he's walking in Sagan's footsteps.
