  being alive to see the controversy first hand when they first redid the klingons after the first movie and again after discovery has taught me to smile at inter-university controversies. lol

    What was it they said back then? They’re from the South or some such?

      Or as Worf once put it, “We don’t discuss that with outsiders.”

      I think the show runner was saying they’re from a different sect of Klingons at first and then they backpedaled as hard as they could almost immediately. L

  I also couldn’t really get into it.

  I can understand the appeal, but it wasn’t really for me.

  One day I’ll definitely finish watching it

    I’ll do a marathon, with the last two seasons of Discovery. One day…

  How far did you actually get into Prodigy?

    Kobayashi Maru I think, maybe halfway through whatever came after

      I find Kobayashi is around where it starts to pick up. I’d say just watch the rest of season 1 before deciding if you want to continue, but at the very least, if you’re worried about wasting your time, to episode 11 (frames the plot for the rest of the season) or episode 13 (the most classically Trek episode of the season, honestly).

      Unfortunately, Jankom Pog never goes away, but somewhere in late season 1, he gets less useless at least and earns the right to be more annoying that Neelix. Also, if you’ve been finding Rok an annoying helpless child up to this point, she becomes a much better character (probably the most useful crew member) after episode 8 through a slightly O’Brien-esque process.

      Season 2 is great and worth having watched season 1 (not to say season 1 is bad, but season 2 is way better).
