So yeah first episode of Prodigy is out and I really enjoyed it.
The story was entertaining, the characters engaging, it was funny and I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing more of it.
It feels very "Star Wars" in places. Mostly, I think, because the setting of the first episode is very similar to something you might see in Star Wars. It definitely reminded me of the world at the start of Fallen Order, where they were breaking up old ships.
The villain felt like something from that franchise as well.
It's definitely not quite what I expected. I was anticipating something that felt aimed at a younger age-group but it really feels more like Clone Wars (Again with the SW references) in it's tone and animation style.
Great start and arguably one of the stronger Trek pilots I would say.
Don't sleep on this one.
