I had thought it was going to be a typical series, but now that you
mention it, it makes more sense that it will be a set of mini-series.
I guess they will show in the US on Mystery.

Have you heard whether Moffat plans to do any original scripts, or
will they all be based on Doyle's books?

The only one in that list I'm not familiar with is Misfits. I did not
like the most recent Torchwood season, and Being Human is just to
angsty for my taste (apparently it was first conceived as "real"
flatmates with psychological problems). I haven't gotten around to
sampling Primeval yet.
