Jim Henson is a legend and and i hope this series will breathe his spirit. If this is good, count me 100% in.

And yes, Netflix/HBO/Hulu/Crunchyroll and Youtube are kicking so much ass these days i believe the age of TV networks is slowly coming to an end.

Wow this is awesome. I love the Dark Crystal. I just watched it with my kids recently. I'm going to need them to bring that Jim Henson feel back.
