      Prodigy is like (rather good, at least after the first few episodes) Saturday morning adventure kids cartoons. There’s some interesting thematic stuff going on that can inspire kids to kindness, leadership, curiosity, etc., but it’s not explicitly educational in the way something like The Magic Schoolbus is.

      Yeah Prodigy is definitely kids-Trek but ultimately it’s also kinda forgettable.

      I let my young’ns watch a curated selection of Lower Decks - Sans certain episodes - and they love it

        How far did you watch into Prodigy? Let’s just say it gradually gets less forgettable - I think it really picks up mid-season 1.

        I do love Lower Decks, though.
