[ SYNOPSIS ]

In the remaining Star Trek: Prodigy Season One episodes, as the hopeful crew makes their way toward Starfleet, their dreams are threatened when they discover the U.S.S. Protostar harbors a weapon designed to tear the United Federation of Planets apart. To make matters worse, the U.S.S. Dauntless is on a manhunt for the Protostar as the real Vice Admiral Janeway is eager to uncover what happened to her missing former First Officer Chakotay. With these two ships on a collision course and destruction on the horizon, the fate of the Alpha Quadrant hangs in the balance.

[ NOTES ]

This show reminds me of Jurassic Park: Camp Cretacious. I was expecting for Prodigy to be a stupid "kidified" version of Star Trek, but it's actually really good. I found myself enjoying it far more than I thought I would. It's a good show for both kids and adults.

For whatever reason, Paramount/CBS has decided to release the 20-episode season in two halves. The first 10 episodes (let's call it Star Trek: Prodigy: Season 1, Volume 1) is available on Blu-ray and DVD. The remaining 10 episodes of the season (let's call it Star Trek: Prodigy: Season 1, Volume 2) is available on Blu-ray and DVD. The show is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, though it would be nice if all four discs, containing all 20 episodes, were released together.
