A new Mission to Zyxx spin-off podcast is on the way
It has been years since the excellent sci-fi improv comedy podcast Mission to Zyxx ended, but the crew of the Bargarean Jade are getting back together for a new adventure.
While Mission to Zyxxas original Star Wars / Star Trek-lampooning story came to a dramatic close with the showas fifth season, Maximum Fun announced today that itas producing a new eight-episode-long spin-off show. Rather than focusing on the Bargarean Jadeas journeys through the Zyxx quadrant, The Young Old Derf Chronicles will delve into the history of Old Derf (Justin Tyler) a one of the legendary Zima Warriors (think Jedis, but with sticks instead of lightsabers) tasked with protecting the Fresh side of the Space. Along with Tyler, original cast members / co-creators Jeremy Bent, Alden Ford, Allie Kokesh, Seth Lind, Winston Noel, and Moujan Zolfaghari are also set to return, and the new miniseries will feature sound design from Shane O'Connell.
