Also BBC shows do tend to be very short, compared to American seasons, and Being Human especially has so few eps that it would just be a miniseries; remaking it, they can get a full-length show.

I hope that they go the QaF route, change the names and chars and go in different directions; it does make it easier for a fan to follow...
