tv.com this is what i have found on it i think this would be it
"introducing absolutely everything. the beginning of history starts here. there

episode 1: secrets of the sun
episode 2: mars: the red planet
episode 3: the end of the earth: deep space threats to our planet
seems like they throw out some basic facts about the sun and make some really
bad analogies. also, really bad special effects. if you've ever taken astronomy
101 you might want to skip this one. reading the wikipedia article on the sun is
hundreds of times more informative and probably more fun too.
youth of america? i didn't know anyone under 50 watched that crap.
if you really are interested in astronomy and don't require illustrations
created for 6-year-olds, carl sagan's "cosmos" and stephen hawkings's "universe"
are much better suited for you.
i didn't think it was that bad now that most of the shows has stopped for a
while i don't seem to be downloading anything much anymore.
i d/l this and watched it and i thought it was ok i would like to see the whole
series but with what people have been saying about this show i get the feeling
this may not get the whole series up' d onto eztv.
like i said wasn't too bad i've seen worse, i'd like to see more form this
series.
bye for now and thanks for the up eztv... si uk :-)
