I think it's more of a case of whether any of the TV channels/networks over here actually wish
to acquire the UK broadcast rights for the new series of KR. As soon as at least one of our TV
companies expresses an interest, NBC are going to be more than happy to sell it to them.
(Especially when downloading from certain unauthorised sources is so rife now . . . )
Eitherway, I think it seems a little more likely than before a UK television channel may snap
up the rights to new KR now that NBC have commissioned a full season run of 22 episodes.

Although I live in the US,my best guess is that maybe they'll put KR in syndication there once it passes a certain amount of episodes.NBC wants to be sure it will be popular before they release it.I guess 5 episodes aren't enough for NBC.I guess it will probably come by next year.

Not anytime soon! I suspect it will be more down to how well it does in the states before anyone in the UK commits to it. Remember Heroes season 1 was on Sci-fi channel in the UK pretty early but it took ages for the BBC to pick up the rights to the show.
Its evident by the Australia broadcaster that the series is there to be picked up for local stations, but it is up to those local broadcasters to make the decision.
