I wonder if it's just going to be a shot-for-shot American remake of the UK version. 
The score of the UK version was just awesome, and fit the show so well.

Doesn't look like they changed many of the names of the main characters.

I just read an article on EW where Flynn talked about some changes they were making to this show. I just can't imagine - I mean, I'm not a 'oh all reboots suck' guy, but the original was so stylized and indelible, like you said, even the score to it, how this is necessary. 

Good luck to the actor, but if you don't really nail Jessica Hyde from the jump then it's going to fall apart.
