You can read an insightful (albeit speculative) blogpost here. I myself have speculated about this already.

For the whedonesque post about this, the following comment was submitted:

People seem to forget or have not heard that Netflix CEO Reed Hastings was asked specifically about Firefly this past summer:

“…a colleague wanted her to suggest Firefly, a show Fox canceled almost a decade ago after it ran for just one year. Hastings acknowledged the show is popular among Netflix streamers, but that it would be impractical to create new episodes, given the actors have aged and the sets no longer exist.”

Well, yes, just like the cortical electrodes we forgot this. Why? Because it’s BULLSHIT.

Here you can read the pwnage of these “arguments”.

Bring it back already!!!
