I didn’t mind the cartoon portions. Weaving a story with science is pretty cool. But Neil was a really shitty choice to take over for Sagan and his frequent meddling with the series made it nearly unwatchable. His voice is just so fucking grating. Every line delivered like he’s some wise and all knowing being. Arrogance unparalleled. Only confirmed by StarTalk and every appearance he has made on everything. Not to mention the pervy shit he’s guilty of.
His way of talking pisses me off so fucking bad. Everytime he says something even vaguely poignant or interesting he has to deliver exactly the same. Trying to sell it like it’s a massive mindblowing moment when what he said was the astronomical equivalent of “2+2=4”. All with the most intensely smug look on his face.
Eh, it is what it is. Some people are just miserable assholes who want to inflict it on everyone else. Says everything about them and nothing about me. The fact that I’ve got trolls following me around and downvoting everyone of my comments or messaging everyone in a thread to lie about me is just proof I’m doing something right.
