1:00:48

Two episodes of Prodigy reintroduce us to two classic Star Trek themes: the Medusan species; and the filler episode.

As the temporal mechanics of Prodigy’s second season grow even more skewed, can kids keep up? Yes, because our youthful crew are still modeling important lessons. Jankom Pog reminds kids to be true to themselves — while Dal reminds parents that kids that age can be difficult, not because anything is wrong with them, but because they’re kids. It’s a…
