Why It Might Happen: We know, we know - 20th Century Fox has the rights to the X-Men movies, but did you know that Marvel retains the TV rights?
After Whedon's run on Astonishing X-Men, not to mention Buffy (which was X-Men in all but name), he would be the perfect person to bring a live-action Mutant soap to the small screen.
Possible Problems: Would Marvel want a competing continuity? It could get confusing for fans.
Having said that, Marvel has all sorts of X-books on comic-shop shelves, so that's never bothered them before.
But there's a more significant issue: if a live-action X-Men TV show is successful, it could end up helping a rival studio to promote their own X-brand.

I'm getting a bit sick of this Whedon fellow. What has he done lately that hasn't already been done by Homer Simpson?

There's a fantastic Marvel show begging to made - Damage Control. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damage_Control_(comics) The daily exploits of poor working shmoes tasked with cleaning up the damage done by raging super-battles... with hilarious consequences!

Civil War will more likely be featured in the next Avengers Movie with a cliffhanger for Avengers 3.
