The Entire Universe has the feeling of a variety show, but one that is focused on the physics of the universe. Comedy, music, and dancing are used to give the basics of the contemporary understanding of the physics of the universe.
Unfortunately, the entertainment garnishes largely fall flat and leave little time for anything beyond a statement of findings. A more straightforward science program could, in the same amount of time and on an admittedly very basic level, which is the level I am at, explain how physicists have come to these conclusions, and probably be nearly as entertaining.
