My favorite is probably still Carl Sagan's Cosmos.

The updated one with NDT as insufferable as he can be, it's amazing. The CGI, graphics and illustrations really make it all come alive.

made that series feel as if they were saying, "look, this is real cool, we're not your father's Cosmos"

Apollo 11 is my favorite NASA documentary, closely followed by 'In the Shadow of the Moon'.

While not technically a documentary, I'd recommend The History of the Universe channel on YouTube. Long form videos that also shine a focus on the scientist who brought us the knowledge. Most videos are more about partical physics but there are some about cosmology, like an entire video about inflation.

NOVA and the BBC have done some great documentaries over the years definitely worth a look, how the universe works is always an interesting watch.

For All Mankind, by Al Reinert, came out in 1989 (same name as the excellent fictional series).

"Our Universe" (with Morgan Freeman) is the one I liked most recently.

It's on Netflix

I don't know where you can still watch it but Netflix used to have this one called "Cosmodrome," focused on Soviet rocket engine design and how they essentially brute-forced a design concept that the Americans considered impossible. Really cool.
