Well I'm not sure really. I can't see how it can work on BBC1, I can see a possible BBC2, late evening, or BBC3 9pm slot. They never show US stuff on BBC1, so I can see the ep set in Wales doing OK, but no US show has ever rated well in Britain. You know even when they say a US show is a "hit" here, they are talking a few million at most, not the type of ratings you get for a Dr Who or a Midsomer Murders say. I can't see it making enough to continue on BBC1. Still of course this could be completely wrong and it will be the first LA show to be a hit on BBC1. Also I bet they go all out to push Jack and Gwen and the British connection. Even the X files only rated well by BBC2 standards.
It will only be a minor show in the US as it's on a pay per view cable network. We shall see, I don't even technically care, I think maybe I hang on to the idea that they might use it again to do something interesting, like TW in the past, or Torchwood 4 maybe, I don't see why the BBC couldn't have done something with it instead of investing in rubbish like Outcasts and giving it a prime slot. I think it's that kernel of hope I have that makes me not want this LA one to be the only option, or something..
