The narrator sounds like the guy who plays Gowron.
That's because the narrator IS the guy who plays Gowron (Robert O'Reilly).
(Gowron also appears in the game itself.)
First episode looks good en was fun.
That's pretty much for the audience. Pretend it went through the Universal translator.
But that doesn’t even work here since Gwyn was translating.
Also, Rok-Tahk is a Brikar, a species from the StarTrek: New Frontier novels.
Just watched the premiere again and I enjoyed it a lot more the second time around. The visuals and music were still the best parts of the episode, but I really liked the characters. Dal could be a little annoying, but Zero, Murf, and Gwyn were great. I also enjoyed Drednock, and yeah there was a little General Grievous to him, but hopefully as the season goes on he becomes his own character.
Before I watched the episode I watched the Trek Culture Ups and Downs video and he brought up two things I really liked. The first was the idea that this could be a spiritual sequel to Voyager. It features Janeway, it's in the Delta Quadrant (We see a Kazon) and the Protostar itself reminded me a little of Voyager, at least the saucer part. The second thing (And I'm sure it was already brought up here) was what if these aliens we see at the prison colony were relatives or descendants of those whom the Caretaker brought over. That's going deep into the Easter egg basket, but it could be something worth exploring. That, and as far as we know Suspiria is still out there. Maybe we might run into Suspiria again, and with Hologram Janeway, she might have some of that knowledge from the Voyager journey.
I'm excited to see where this series goes, and yeah it's directed towards Kids but I do think it holds enough for everyone to enjoy it.
My favorite Title Sequence in Trek is Voyager, followed by Enterprise. I think I might need to reshuffle that because I love everything about Prodigy's title sequence. It's majestic, his some amazing visuals, and I've already watched it more than 3 times.

Not into English.But that doesn’t even work here since Gwyn was translating.
Federation standard is basically English.
The "translation" is into TV Viewer English. Why would Gwyn translate something into Federation Standard?
This was much better than I expected! Dreadnok was too much like Star Wars for my taste, but the rest was much better than the trailer led me to believe.
Does anyone else think that this might be set in the Kelvin Universe?

That’s what the impression I got when she was translating for General Grievous.
Why would anyone in that scene be speaking Federation Standard?
Well they had to speak in something.
The whole scene was redundant anyway since he could understand the Kazon anyway.
The main 'villain' in the tank (the 'Diviner') knew of the UFP and Protostar. It stands to reason he taught Federation Standard (among many other languages) to his kid (Gwyn) who then decided she likes it.
It also makes sense that he would impart to her the notion of the region they occupied being the Delta Quadrant.
If that's the case, then its also possible the Diviner is originally from the Alpha or Beta Quadrants and possibly one of the UFP species... or he may have simply heard of UFP and decided to adopt the term... though, not sure why he would do that if he's not a UFP species or a A/B quadrant species familiar with those terms (though he seemed rather 'obsessive' about the Protostar... so much to the point he created a whole mining operation to search for it).

What if he's from the Gamma Quadrant and has heard about "The Federation" from his dealings with the Dominion?
Just caught the first episode and I really enjoyed it. Some of the action was a bit Star Warsy, but it really held my interest. 8 out of 10.
I really liked most of the characters, and Janeway appearing at the end was a lovely moment. I mean she could have appeared in the episode a little sooner, but there's always next week.

I wasn't sure if I was going to check this out (immediately I mean), but the reaction seems pretty positive so I'll give it a go sometime this week.
I have the strong suspicion that the Diviner is actually the original captain of the Protostar.
