===2020s=== The [[Science Channel]] broadcast the 2021 science documentary series ''[[Killers of the Cosmos]]'' in a format it describes as "space noir." In the series, actor [[Aidan Gillen]] in animated form serves as the host of the series while portraying a [[private investigator]] who takes on "cases" in which he "hunts down" lethal threats to humanity posed by the [[cosmos]]. The animated sequences combine the characteristics of film noir with those of a pulp fiction graphic novel set in the mid-20th century, and they link conventional live-action documentary segments in which experts describe the potentially deadly phenomena.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Kanter|first=Jake|date=2020-11-20|title='Game Of Thrones' Star Aidan Gillen To Front Genre-Bending Discovery Cosmology Series 'Killers Of The Cosmos'|url=https://deadline.com/2020/11/aidan-gillen-science-channel-series-killers-of-the-cosmos-wall-to-wall-1234618542/|access-date=2021-10-31|website=Deadline|language=en-US|archive-date=2021-10-31|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211031013634/https://deadline.com/2020/11/aidan-gillen-science-channel-series-killers-of-the-cosmos-wall-to-wall-1234618542/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Killer of the Cosmos : Programs : Science Channel : Discovery Press Web|url=https://press.discovery.com/us/sci/programs/killer-cosmos/|access-date=2021-10-31|website=press.discovery.com|archive-date=2021-10-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211030221032/https://press.discovery.com/us/sci/programs/killer-cosmos/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=When Outer Space Meets Film Noir|url=https://www.discovery.com/dnews/when-outer-space-meets-film-noir|access-date=2021-10-31|website=Discovery|language=en|archive-date=2021-10-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211030221032/https://www.discovery.com/dnews/when-outer-space-meets-film-noir|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Citation|title=Killers of the Cosmos | TVmaze|date=24 October 2021 |url=https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/57201/killers-of-the-cosmos|language=en|access-date=2021-10-31|archive-date=2021-10-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211030221032/https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/57201/killers-of-the-cosmos|url-status=live}}</ref>
