In this episode, James, and Jaime sit back down to discuss the Skeksis in all of their disgusting and amazing glory. Formidable, and frightening, ridiculous or comedic? The Skeksis are now legendary, yet complicated villains in a story that's as dense as it is simplistic. Join us for this satisfying discussion on all things Dark Crystal, in a world only Jim Henson could dream up.
