Interesting scenarios on the return of Wash. Now for those in denial(like myself), what would you suppose the circumstances of Wash's return be? I've run a few ideas through my head.
Scenario 1:
The crew is once again faced with a Reaver attack, and are as in Serenity, fighting for their lives. But this one is none too usual as one of the Reavers is recognizeable to us. It's Wash. He apparently had survived(I still have not worked out any possible way he could have survived so I'll omit that detail)and was made into a Reaver like the guy on Bushwhacked. Now orignally I thought that he would have to rerealize his humanity via Zoe and Mal and rejoin the crew. Or they would have to shoot him which only leaves me queasy.
Scenario 2:
A much less thought out one. The crew has to land on a core planet to refuel and the likes. And find that their old pilot has taken a new identity as an Alliance pilot working on a shipping cruiser or something of the such with no memory of his previous life.
Now I know these are cheesy and ruin the total effect of him dying but it is entertaining to think how one of my most beloved charactes would be reintroduced into the 'Verse were there to be more expansion upon it.
Edit:
On a side note, I personally believe they should bring Wash and Book back in the form of the crew's consciences.

Scenario 3:
Mal or one of the others are kidnapped by the Hands of Blue to gain info on river Tam. Wash is also held prisoner in the same facility.
However if Joss did this Wash would poribably be kept alive artificially, just to have him killed again.

I like all of yours, but I don't really have a creative enough mind to think of any...
This one though:

Wash as a reaver??!! Oh, no! I guess it would make as a good story, but I just can't see him being reaver-y!

Yah. Just Wash's head. Connected to a little box with two little feet and two little arms. Like Mr. Potatohead...

...he can't fly the ship anymore. So he sits on Mal's Shoulder. And gives advice. The conscience of the crew...

The Hands of Blue were killed in Those Left Behind. That's why the Operative was deployed to catch them in the movie and they were nowhere to be found.
Scenerio 4:
I have to give credit to my brother 6isStringJack on this as it's based off his idea.
Wash was badly hurt (obviously) when the Reaver's attacked but they didn't eat him because they thought he was dead. When the Alliance landed they found Wash and rushed him to the main ship to give him medical treatment while supressing the Reavers. Because of the pandemonium created by the Reavers, it never came up that Wash was a survivor taken from Serenity rather than just a wounded troop. He was logged as an injured Alliance soldier and treated as such until he came to months later and was dropped off on a core world.

To me, there are only two plausible scenarios: either Wash comes back in flash-backs (ala Out of Gas; where the scenes can pretty much last as long as Joss wants); or he makes some sort of psychic link with River (a bit more cheesy). The first option I find the most likely -- Wash somehow being kept alive in a high-tech Reaver medical facility, not so much. :)

There were supposed to be more than one set of HoB 'til the casting staff hired the same pair for Ariel without Joss' prior knowledge.
However looking in the Serenity Visual companion, I must say that Wash actually being alive is slim. That spike in the artists impressions is huge.
The only saving grace is that Joss did film it similar to how he filmed Dobson's death in the pilot episode 'Serenity'.

Okay:
Scenario 6(?, I forgot what number):
They're all on the ship, and everybody's like, yeah, hey, how's it going? And you know, chatting it up and stuff, and the door opens and it's Wash and Book's right behind him. And they're like, "I'm okay!" And everybody's freaking out, and the crew's all like, how did that happen, you guys were dead. And then Wash and Book are like, "Meh." And then they all go out for hot chocolate.
Anything that beats that out, as being the most structurally sound I will accept as well.
