Stephen Hawking's Universe DVD

I bought this a few days ago, and have watched the first three episodes of six. Probably not much new here to anyone who has read some cosmology, but it's very well produced, and there are lots of interviews with well known astronomers and cosmologists. My main criticism is the annoying insistence on filming interviewees seemingly in the dark with only part of their faces lit. I guess they see it as "mood lighting", but eventually it just looks silly.
