Netflix described the show In a press release, saying, "The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance returns to the world of Thra with an all new adventure. When three Gelfling discover the horrifying secret behind the Skeksis' power, they set out on an epic journey to ignite the fires of rebellion and save their world." For those who recall the original film, this statement actually gives us a few more hints about the plot. First, it tells us that we won't be seeing the events that led to the sundering of an ancient group of powerful creatures into the benevolent Mystics and evil Skeksis, since the Skeksis already exist. Second, the presence of a Gelfling team clarifies that The Resistance is set either before or during the Gelfling genocide. The series will probably shed light on why the Skeksis are so obsessed with "essence of Gelfling."
If the Hensons aren't involved, it's not worth seeing.

Loved the original, was ambivalent about the manga, am hopeful for the prequel! As a note, the novelization of the movie was almost unreadable.
I must confess, the original scared the crap outta me when I was little.
