Tonigt's new episode, "Liquid Universe," looks interesting.
It was interesting, but the repeat episode they ran before it (which I'd missed previously) on star clusters was outstanding.

You betcha! I watched "Search for Cosmic Clusters" again before "Liquid Universe."

Tonight's new episode is "Pulsars and Quasars." It behooves me to check this out. It's on in less than an hour here.

Another good one...and...unless it was just that I'd had a couple o' drinks and wasn't paying very close attention...didn't notice a single mistake this time.

I would have watched it again at 1:00 AM but I was tired. Hopefully it'll rerun next week.
However, they didn't have a rerun before this show last night.
If you found the segment about the Vela Pulsar and Mickey Hart fascinating, here's a link to a Jodrell Bank Observatory webpage so you can listen to the Vela Pulsar again or whenever:

I have to agree with you guys this time, the Pulsars show was one episode I found most interesting. Maybe they're getting more serious about real astronomy and doing less of that funky for-show guesswork lately. Too bad I only saw the second half of the episode.
