Well, no, but there was a lot of talk when it was first announced about having it tied to an American network meaning that it would get stripped back no matter how much TPTB said that it wouldn't be. If Pillars of the Earth is anything to go by, they're not afraid to show more... I can't think of a word, but yeah, there is that reassurance there.
That is one thing that does make me raise eyebrows, ten episodes is a long time to maintain one plot, but with good writers it could work.
I don't think he's entirely horrendous at sci-fi, but I'm glad that you said that. What drives me insane is people who constantly say that he can't write and he's awful etc etc without having seen anything he's done apart from Doctor Who and Torchwood. Casanova & QAF were excellent!
