Episodes
What Lies Beneath
Ten designers compete in various challenges, having to build everything from whimsical beasts to mechanical characters and, in the series premiere, creatures that live in an undersea world that has remained untouched by humans.
Return of the Skeksis
The creature designers are given the chance to reimagine the fictional species Skeksis from "The Dark Crystal." Later, their characters appear in a screen test for the original 1982 film.
Assembly Inspired
Unconventional materials from a junkyard are used to create scrap-fantasy creatures that are trapped inside a hanging cage.
Heads Up!
A humor-filled challenge requires the designers to create mounted creature heads that magically come to life under the spell of a wizard played by Donald Faison.
Life in Motion
An appearance by Lady Gaga's unicorn inspires the creature designers to create a larger-than-life creation with realistic movement, performed on a blacklight soundstage.
Swamp Things
The designers make camouflaged creatures hiding in plain sight for a mystical swamp-theme challenge. Neville Page ("Face Off") serves as guest judge.
Alien Press Conference
Gigi brings her "Farscape" costar Rygel to the workshop to offer inspiration when the creature designers are given the task to build original alien species attending an intergalactic press conference. Director Barry Sonnenfeld is the guest judge.
Tavern at the Crossroads
The final three receive help from contestants who were previously eliminated as they face their toughest challenge, which is to design, build and perform a full-body mystical creature, complete with props and special effects, for the chance to win a job at Jim Henson's Creature Shop.
