And love Prodigy. I am far from the target audience, but enjoy the show. I wasn't that interested when I first heard about it. But since it was Trek, and the reviews were overwhelmingly positive, I gave it a chance. It might be my favorite of the new Trek shows. 1. Prodigy. 2. Lower Decks. 3. Discovery. 4. Picard. Even though Picard is number 4, I still greatly enjoy it.
 
I'm in my 40's as well....and I really like it. I admit that part of my "liking it" is seeing it through the lens of my 7 and 10 year old sons, who really appreciate it. It's also a beautiful looking show and the music and performances are nice. I put it leaps above Lower Decks in terms of my own personal tastes, because it's not ridiculous and driven by parody... but it will never surpass a live-action Trek offering, as I am generally not a fan of animation in general.

My biggest "meh" for Prodigy right now is that the antagonist is not very interesting. Reminds me of the guys who used to chase around the A-Team...like they are just sort of there to keep the tension at a certain level.
 
Everytime I read the title of this thread...I expect to open it up and have it continue to say...

"I am thrice dee-vorced, and I live in a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!"

I'm 44 and I like Prodigy.

It's better than Stargate Infinity in every measurable way EXCEPT for the theme song, which is fantastic work by Michael Giacchino but not god-tier.

Well, that's getting added to a playlist...
 
I'm 56. It has a very different pacing than I'm used to. It is gorgeous to look at, but it's not my top favorite. But it's one of my son's favorites, and that's good enough for me. I think once more happens plot-wise I may settle into it more. The teaser for the next episode certainly jazzed me.
