An introductory survey of astronomy from The Great Courses, covering the solar system, stars, and the wider universe at a non-technical level. Commenters mention it as a lecture series rather than a hands-on course.
One commenter calls it the "wonderful" Great Courses intro to astronomy series and says it is highly recommended.

Unfortunately, due to its name, Uranus has been the butt of many jokes.
Sorry -- had to share that. Got it from the wonderful "Great Courses" intro to astronomy series (See? I managed to throw in some good hacker stuff and tell a corny joke at the same time.) Highly recommended.
