I disagree with everyone who have commented on this show thus far, I think it was a very good, well done program with a very enthusiastic host that kept it interesting. It take us to the very origins of what makes our modern society and shows how just a little inspiration at a particular moment in time leads to others and so on. Yes he (Jason Silva) is very animated to an almost comical degree, but it helps keep the material interesting. I wish some of my college professors were as much fun as this guy! The materials presented make the viewer see things with a new knowledge and understanding of the logic behind an event and opens the mind to new possibilities. A very enjoyable show!
