I though it was pretty awesome, but I'm a complete layperson when it comes to that stuff.
I probably have, but I was probably baked.
It's that kind of show, isn't it...

No, I haven't seen the series at all. I'll look for it.
I'm not a cosmologist but I absolutely love astronomy and anything to do with space.
A good website to check out is Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy.
I'm somewhat of a nearly cosmologist (particle physics, field theory, dark matter) but that episode was mostly on biology and chemistry, about which you're more of an expert.
Know Plait of course, should read him more often tho!
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
