Animated 'Firefly' Reboot in Development from Nathan Fillion, 20th TV

Loved the show, I have no expectations for this. It's just too easy to not be "right" for all sorts of incompatible different definitions of "right".

But, the animated series a good idea and smart.

First, it lets Nathan and Morena participate considering they're pretty busy with their prime time series.

Second, there's no reason to "jump ahead 20 years". They can pick right up from where they left off after they figure out how to dig Wash out of the ground. The animated characters don't have to age. They can do a prequel, they have a lot of flexibility which helps to not pigeon hole it.

And, ideally, the animated series can be less expensive, making it perhaps more of a chance for success and continuing (I have no idea how much modern animated show development costs compared to sets and CGI etc.).

I have not seen it, but I understand that The Clone Wars is a pretty successful series, so maybe that's an inspiration.
