The Verdict

Star Trek: Prodigy is an original kids' animated adventure with a diverse alien cast that fits naturally into the Trek universe and carries the franchise's classic optimistic teamwork themes. It contains essentially no heavy-handed identity messaging — its diversity is lore-consistent and its themes are woven into the story rather than preached.
