Yay! My favorite doctor!!! I guess it makes sense seeing that Janeway and Chakotay are included. Not to mention the hologram thing without talking about season 1 spoilers (although y’all should have watched it by now if you haven’t)
I am just the opposite. I love musicals and I love Star Trek, but this one was my least favorite of the season. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate them trying something innovative for the Trek series. I enjoyed seeing the actors working outside the box. But overall it didn’t give me the joy that the other episodes have.
Thank you for posting this. It is the first I heard about it. OP - you have made my day!
If they were smart they would have continued the series to keep kids interested and then ween them onto the older series. Increase fan base = increase monetization of products.
I too am saddened by the loss of the potential this show had. I loved the colorful animations. Even my husband, who is not a fan of Picard or Discovery, enjoyed Prodigy with surprisingly little criticism (he has a lot of opinions contrary to mine about the nature of the newer generation of Star Trek series).
I am holding hope that maybe they will bring it back at some point or perhaps another production company buys creative rights/licensing (not sure how it works) and revives the series.
I found you Bender
I think the character of Kes was very poorly written. It limited the acting range of Jennifer Lien, which is only really given a chance to shine in the episode Warlord.
After you watch The Trouble with Tribbles follow it up with DS9 - Trials and Tribble-ations!
