Seems to be a followup of Carl Sagan's Cosmos from decades ago.

This is one not to be missed

The trailer seems to be a glitzy content-free collection of images from the show.

The 1st episode was OK, but I'm afraid that it is unnecessarily "pushing religious buttons" in defense of science.

As one who watches mostly PBS science shows, I found the numerous commercials quite disruptive. But they gave me a chance to read up on Giordano Bruno. Wikipedia's version differs considerably from the TV show's.

. . . .The 1st episode was OK, but I'm afraid that it is unnecessarily "pushing religious buttons" in defense of science. . . . .

I think one reason they had the cartoon animations and having Neil DeGrasse Tyson speaking in about as soft and mellow a voice as I have ever heard him, was to NOT push religious buttons in the god believers, but to allow them the possibility to consider something other than creation.

He seemed to be a completely different person than he appears in his solo lectures and and discussions with Hitchens, Dawkins, O'Reilly, among others. He was so mellow, unassuming and walking on eggshells that if I didn't recognize his voice, I wouldn't know he was the narrator without looking at the screen.

It is a start, though. Somehow, if we are to progress, we have to get past all the creationist BS and that is what this show seems to be attempting. The program certainly isn't anywhere as sophisticated as his other lectures or tv programs.
