How sad it must have been for Chakotay to co-exist with a holographic copy of his former captain and dear friend, a seemingly immortal impression at their most peak, and not get to experience them age by his side. A scar of better days taunting you as you try to cope with your doomed situation.
#and poor holographic janeway she would have had work hard to manage his slide into hopelessnes and steer him away from despair#She must have done right by him because he hadn't lost his mind (though we've seen how capable she can be)#there were speckles of the corrosion of their relationship and that was kind of sexy lmao#chakotay#startrek prodigy spoilers#startrek prodigy#star trek prodigy

Alright animation fans, this is the big test.
On Christmas Day Star Trek Prodigy season 1 will be released on Netflix. This is a new 3D animated young adult animated series that was removed from Paramount+ as a tax write off, and was only saved through an amazing grass roots campaign by fans to be picked up by Netflix so that it’s second season could be aired.
If you like serialized storytelling in kids shows, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you like Star Trek, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you know absolutely nothing about Star Trek, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you like The Owl House, Gravity Falls, Avatar the Last Airbender, or Legend of Korra, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you’re angry at studios cancelling animated shows prematurely or treating kids animation like trash, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you couldn’t afford a Paramount+ account but have a Netflix account, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you like episodic content with a serialized story, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you have kids and want them to get into Star Trek but don’t know where to start, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
If you like sci-fi, watch Star Trek Prodigy
If you like colorful characters, gorgeous animation, a serious storyline with lots of character growth and high stakes, watch Star Trek Prodigy.
This show has been neglected by Paramount+ and it’s gotten a rare second chance. The first month a show is released on Netflix is the most crucial time of all because the viewership will determine its fate going forward. A second season has already been finished (it was nearly completed when Paramount cancelled it), but if we want to see more beyond this season we need Netflix to see that we care about it and that their risk in picking up the show is warranted.
Please. Help us save this show. It’s SO GOOD, and it was treated like garbage by Paramount+. Help us stick it to Paramount and show everyone what a great show this actually is. Help us make Paramount regret their decision. Help kids animation continue to thrive and show it’s worth! Help bring in more people into the Star Trek fandom! Help us now! Please!

Could someone help me figure out why the old Diviner appears in the search party of the future that Dal disrupts. Shouldn't he be young too, like the flashbacks in season 1? This is strange to me if it's supposed to be 1:1 until the launch goes wrong. It doesn't seem like a mistake to have the old Diviner here.
#perhaps a surprise tool that will hinder us later? (s3)???#Is this actually Ilthuran on some kind of mission of his own to make sure things happen correctly#cos he was YOUNG in season 1 flash...err backs to this time frame where he and the Order sent ships through the wormhole#if it's parallel then why is his age different#maybe it doesnt matter and im reading into this too much#the other guard has weirdly similar hair tendrils to the young diviner why show that when they've all been covered.#They do reuse models but it seems so focused on two of them here at once#its probably nothing but im trying to figure this timeline thing out lol and they still had to launch ships through at some point..#anyway lmao no one could answer me#startrek prodigy spoilers#startrek prodigy#02x04#star trek prodigy#star trek prodigy spoilers

Can we talk about the SUPURB concept scaling of Prodigy? The show is designed for kids and to be a gateway into the Star Trek universe. As such they need to slowly and carefully introduce you to the various Trek things most of us longer established fans understand without question.
Let me break down how the first half of the season establishes trek concepts step by step:
Episode 1. Introduces the universal translator, several types of Trek aliens including the Kazon and Medusans, and the Protostar ship.
Episode 2. Introduces phasers (pew pew) and shields.
Episode 3. Introduces holograms, the brig, the concept of the United federation, replicators (food and vehicle), and escape pods.
Episode 4. Introduces the concept of away missions, tricorders, and ship landings. It also reinforces the idea that holograms must remain within the ship.
Episode 5. Introduces klingons and the proto warp drive.
Episode 6. Introduces the holodeck, the concept of the Kobiashi Maru scenario, and Chakotay.
Episode 7. Introduces the transporters, Ferengi, and both the concepts of First Contact and the Prime Directive.
Episode 8. Introduces time travel shenanigans.
Episodes 9 and 10 are special because they both take everything we’ve learned up until now and puts them to work.
So by now we should understand how the protostar jump works, how universal translators work, how the holodeck works, how Medusans work, how holograms are supposed to work (to give us an added surprise when they function differently due to an upgrade) and we reinforce Starfleet ideals and beliefs.
Each episode takes you step by step, slowly acclimating you to these concepts so that further down the line when we see characters in wild settings that shouldn’t exist we just know “Ah, they’re on the holodeck.” Or see characters just appear out of nowhere “ah, that’s because of transporters.”
I know this should be obvious storytelling 101, but I’ve noticed that most other trek shows… just don’t do this at all. They just assume everyone knows what a transporter is, or what a holodeck is, or what phasers and tricorders are. And while to a degree some of that will be absorbed through pop culture osmosis, very few of the other trek shows stop and explain what these things are which makes getting into these shows more challenging for first time watchers.
So I greatly appreciate Prodigy assuming that viewers know next to NOTHING about the Trek world and take the time to let these concepts be introduced slowly over the span of multiple episodes. And each time it feels like we’re leveling up too.
This is good stuff!

I feel this deserves a separate post. I didn’t want to keep hijacking that other trek post to talk about this.
^^ This was a reply on another post by Commander Meg.
^^ This is their tumblr blog.
They are, without a doubt, one of the shining beacons in the Prodigy tumblr fandom at the moment! My blog is dedicated to posting as much as I can about Prodigy. But even when I’m in a non-posting slump, Commander Meg is still there posting constantly!
Everyone in the fandom should be following their blog and reblogging their posts if they can! They absolutely deserve the love and attention for their dedication to the show and the fandom! Seriously, please please PLEASE check them out!

A mini rant
I really wish tumblr fans and YouTube react channels would latch on to Star Trek Prodigy. Every week I’m reminded that so many of the people who “officially” review Star Trek content in general online have absolutely NO understanding of the young adult animation landscape.
Countless reviews gripe that the episodes are “too short,” while simultaneously missing all the key details they normally pay attention to in Star Trek because their mindset is still that of animation = for babies. They are so unwilling to engage with the media as it’s presented.
They’re definitely not familiar with the way most animated shows are written these days, where larger story beats are given out bit by bit and writers allow them to come together organically, rather than spoon fed to you upfront.
How many reviewers criticized Dal for being “unlikable” only to walk that back after the Kobiashi episode? How many reviewers complained it was “too much like Star Wars” after only the first episode and didn’t allow the show to even introduce the Trek content? Unwilling to give the character a chance to grow because they didn’t like his starting place?
I’m still salty about reviewers complaining in Dreamcatcher “why didn’t they use the transporter?” despite the show literally telling them that there was a certain type of radiation which is notorious for interfering with transporters. That’s the techno-babble jargon these types of reviewers should LOVE to sift through, but they ignored it and dismissed it and called it a “plot hole” because they don’t respect the intelligence of the writers and its intended audience.
And that’s a common theme I keep seeing. Just this past week it happened again with the Borg episode, where the reviewers complained about the Borg not using their nano-tubes ala First Contact despite the show intentionally referencing the end of Voyager. Instead of it being in line with established canon it’s written off as a way to make the Borg “less scary for kids.”
I don’t understand this seemingly collective amnesia from Trek fans who gloss over long standing established lore and only remember one or two things and forget everything else. I thought cataloguing all these details was one of the things Trekkies were supposed to be GOOD at!
Meanwhile… you wouldn’t see this dismissive attitude coming from young adult animation YouTube reactors. The people who obsess over The Owl House, Avatar, Korra, Amphibia, and Gravity Falls would pick up on those details IMMEDIATELY. They’d analyze the characters relationships, they ship the characters together, theorize about the time travel stuff, and be excited to get into a show like this! They’d ask a question, then the show would answer it, and they’d be like “oh cool! Now I understand!”
Where are my 2 hour long analysis videos about Dal and Gwyn’s relationship? Where are all the lgbt+ reviewers excited that Zero is non-binary? Where are all the reactors trying to protect Murf and Rok? Where are all the animation nerds geeking out over how amazing this show looks??? Where are my Diviner simps???? LOL
I don’t know how to spread my love of this show to other platforms like YouTube. I can’t make videos and I’m not gonna become a reactor. But if I have ANY sway here on tumblr… please, please, PLEASE, let other people who aren’t 50+ year old die-hard Trekkies find this show and start reacting to it!
Spread the word! This show is literally designed to get new people into Star Trek. I wanna see it! I wanna see these YouTuber react channels responding to this show with the same reverence and appreciation that they do for Gravity Falls and other young adult animated shows!
I wanna see people making crazy theories about time travel!
I wanna see people loving Dal’s growth as a character.
I wanna see people loving Gwyn’s sword.
I wanna see people fawning over Murf’s adorable-ness.
I wanna see people mothering Rok.
And more importantly… I wanna see people who’ve NEVER WATCHED Star Trek get into this show and say “I’m really loving Janeway, now I really wanna watch Star Trek Voyager too and see the real Janeway in action!”
These people exist. They’re out there. I know they do! I just have no idea how to reach them! So please, if you ever see a react channel asking “what should I watch next?” Please, please, PLEASE, recommend Prodigy! I fear that word of mouth is really the only way to do this now! Spread the word! Let people around you know how good this show is! Let more people find it! Let more people react to it! Help the show find the audience that seems to be completely missing it!
I love this show. I just want more people to get into it and create content for it! I do what I can here on tumblr, but I’m just one person. I can’t do it alone!

Hey animation fandom side of tumblr! I think you guys are sitting on Star Trek: Prodigy! Let me see if I can help get you guys interested!
For starters Prodigy is a Nickelodeon CGI animated kids show. Don’t let the Star Trek name scare you away, this show is literally designed to introduce people who’ve never touched a Star Trek show in their life to what Star Trek is all about! Think of it like their answer to Star Wars :The Clone Wars.
And let’s make no mistakes here, this show is DARK. Even for kids show standards. The setup for the show is that alien children imprisoned on a mining asteroid stumble upon a space ship and use it to escape their enslavers.
Did you like Avatar or The Legend of Korra? Then you’re going to like this show! It’s well written, doesn’t pull punches, and is all about that found-family life!
So let’s meet the characters!
This GWYN! She’s the daughter of the warden enslaving them and is conflicted about her complicity in the Warden’s atrocities. She has a metallic sword that molds itself around her arm!
This is Dal! He’s a bit cocky, but he cares deeply about his crew. He’s not a very good leader, but his growth learning how to be a captain is a highlight of the show! He’s a smart character who unfortunately often acts like he has one brain cel. Don’t worry, it’s not his fault, it’s his many many years of abandonment and mental health issues!
This is Rok and Murf! Don’t let her big size fool you! Rok is actually just a sweet little girl who has one of the saddest and most tragic backstories and development out of all the characters!
And that purple ooze? That’s murf! He’s a slime creature voiced by Dee Bradley Baker! Did you like Momo? Then you’ll LOVE murf! Seriously if you want a blorbo, you can’t get more of a blorbo than an ACTUAL blorbo!
And this is Hologram Janeway! She’s a holographic training program based on Captain Janeway from Star Trek Voyager. She’s the perfect mentor to help this crew learn how to be a… well… a functional CREW! Don’t worry, you don’t need to know anything about Voyager to enjoy her character.
Oh and one more thing! this is the villain:
He’s voiced by Denethor from Lord of the Rings!
So in conclusion…
Sword lesbian, one brain cel, sweet giant, blorbo, AI mother figures, fabulous Denethor!
