I watched Sagan's original a few times, but I think you will enjoy the original if you watch more than one episode. He is the farthest thing from being a dull speaker....quite the opposite is true. If you admired him so much then why did you only watch one episode of Sagan's original? What lectures have you heard from him that make you feel he is an unenthusiastic host?
If Carl Sagan was a boring host then how come COSMOS was such an astronomical success? I'm not trying to be argumentative, just voicing my own opinion, and defending one of the greatest scientists in recent history.
...but I'm pleased to see that you are enjoying the current re-boot.

I agree with you. Sagan is one of the most inspirational figures that I have ever come across. I loved his delivery, his voice, and his passion coupled with the music of Vangelis - I don't think there was ever a better match. Here is a video I made a few years ago -- it features various clips from the Cosmos series that I put together.
Here is another video featuring Carl Sagan delivering a profound message I think everyone should hear
And another video I put together with some of the music from the original Cosmos series
