MODERATORS
A disturbing number of people seem to be unwilling or unable to curate their feed.
The downvotes are all coming from accounts on other instances, which as @[email protected] suggested, makes us think it's most likely people browsing "All" and not appreciating seeing twenty discussion posts (not that that justifies it).
Of all the possible references to legacy characters they could have made, Edward Larkin was not on my Bingo card...
All in all, I think it's a pretty good setup for a season. Time travel nonsense is a pretty big swing for a kids' show, so I'm curious to see how it all plays out.
I think making Dal have a hard time adjusting to student life and not being at the centre of the action makes a lot of sense. As much as he clearly has room to grow, I wonder if there will ever be an opportunity for Starfleet to tailor their material to his personal learning style.
I probably should have made comments while watching the episodes, as I'm sure I am forgetting a lot of details, but Prodigy seems to have picked up where it left off with regard to the quality of its episodes.
I will say that the Voyager-A is a beautiful ship and I hope we get to see more of her.
