    I made an account just so I could leave this review. What an appalling piece of garbage and an absolute slog it was to wade through this show. I tried to like it, I really did, but it just failed to hit any mark. This show felt like a bootleg Pixar studio tried to make their own Star Wars show. And that's right, I said Star Wars, because this does NOT feel like the Star Trek I known. YouI made an account just so I could leave this review.

You can call me jaded and nostalgic all you want and not take my review seriously, but trust me when I say that this steaming pile of a nightmare does NOT represent Star Trek one bit. How can a show miss the target this badly?!… Expand

    The double-sized premiere of Prodigy seems to be entirely in its own lane, refreshingly unconcerned with previous Star Trek series until two minutes before the closing credits.

    Star Trek: Prodigy sets up a fun story that’s only somewhat connected to the greater canon of the Trek franchise, but with the addition of Mulgrew, makes the show accessible to newcomers and Trek fans alike.

    There’s potential here, albeit of a moderate sort—the character banter, with an ensemble featuring not just one but four different versions of comic relief, is passable, and John Noble could (and maybe is) do this kind of role in his sleep. The series is aimed at children, but in a cheery all-ages kind of way that avoids insulting its audience even if it never quite manages to impress them.
