The move has spawned a rash of speculation as to which cult favorite series might be revivied. Any favorites out there? Keep in mind that as Nathan Fillion's approaches 100 episodes of Castle, he is now earning $100 Thousand Per Episode |

So not Firefly then... :) Wasn't Lillehammer Netflix's own production as well? I wonder who and what next into this space, if they can prove it a different, yet viable method of mass media distribution? It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |

LillyHammer (deliberately mispelled) was the first Netflix TV series The stars of Arrested Development are all very successful in general, but they are not attached to a running TV series, and most of them may not be available for the Netflix reboot (Jason Bateman, Portia de Rossi, Will Arnett, and Michael Cera). Nathan Fillion's TV show has the second highest number of episodes of any scripted show on ABC. Usually at this point the star gets a lot of money because the show will sell in syndication. It would be difficult for him to make a second tv series. But there is a possibility that Netflix may make movies as well. episodes ABC scripted show 47 Happy Endings 13 Malibu Country 37 Last Man Standing 16 The Neighbors 29 Body of Proof 35 Revenge 95 Castle with Nathan Fillion 13 Nashville 35 Suburgatory 86 The Middle 35 Once Upon A Time 20 Scandal 187 Grey's Anatomy 86 Modern Family cancelled Don't Trust The B---- in Apt 23 Last Resort Private Practice 666 Park Avenue |

I do watch all my TV through Netflix now, but the major advantage is watching a lot of the stuff that's filter through time and got some critical acclamation (friends or professional).
