Not enough, especially since I don't know who he is. I mean, since the announcement I've seen people talking about him and mentions of some of the stuff he's done, but I haven't ever seen him in anything.
And while this premise sounds a little more promising, after watching not one but two series flounder under the care of these PTB, I must conclude that either they really can't write a decent series or they just didn't care enough to, especially in the case of Atlantis. Not to mention that I haven't appreciated the attitude from some of them in recent interviews, especially Brad Wright and Martin Gero.
While it may be an intriguing concept, with good actors, they had good actors and an intriguing concept with Atlantis and simply failed to develop it to its potential. Why should I believe they would do any better with this new shiny toy? Fool me once, shame on you - fool me twice, shame on me.
