Finally, real Trek is back!!!
Star Trek: Starfleet Scouts in development

It’s a shame they couldn’t have gone a different route with this and made it more of a comfy, wholesome thing than whatever this frantic mess tries to be. If you think about it, there’s so much potential in telling cute little slice of life stories from the perspective of a child living on a starship like the Enterprise. Have a group of kids explore the wonders of living on a spaceship that travels the stars. “Scouts” seems like it wants to lean more into the action angle of Star Trek, which – condensed down like this – seems just incredibly hollow and stale.
100% agreed. I don’t have any kids either but learned about Bluey from watching it with my grand-niece. I think it’s written and produced exceptionally well and I’ll sing the gospel to everyone who’ll listen to it. People should really check it out, kids or no kids.
We don't want to give preschoolers nightmares.
Because it's Romulan? Because I still seeing kids with rubber ducks.
Because they won't grasp the canonical implications that the Romulans might have their own rubber ducky rooms, just like Starfleet ships.
Classical question: It is canon or not?
Somehow I don't see this project going very far, from what I've seen of it so far.
This probably now means it's going to be the first Trek series to get 7 seasons since VOY.

It hurts watching that they apparently do have a CGI animation budget but use it on this. I think a series of short films covering the Romulan War (with voices of the Enterprise cast) would be far more interesting, and should follow the lead of the classic 2003 Clone Wars show by Genndy Tartakovsky (not the Filoni show which I'm sure Paramount has no budget for and got overindulgent with creator pet characters at the end--Ahsoka and Rex anyone?)
An interesting concept, but I somehow suspect Nick Jr. wouldn't be in a rush to co-produce that one.
Ok, if you have a better idea for an animated show what do you think then since you're so harsh on my comment? Prodigy's not coming back right now.Anything to put Enterprise back on the air.
What the hell, I just watched the two episodes and they're the same exact plot! It's just these three jokers shooting random crap at spaceborne objects! And it's just ADHD, there's no structure at all!
The Memory Alpha editors having to transcribe all of these "plots" and integrate them into canon is comedy gold though; hoping this hits ten or more seasons and the entire page for "Romulan" on Memory Alpha is flooded with shit like "Romulans were known to use rubber ducks. (SCO: Soap Asteroid)"

Apologies to any of the regular MA editors here (especially the one I'm quoting below), because I appreciate your hard work and the nightmare it must be to set standards to keep it consistent, but comments like this are just hilarious to me:

It's a bit of a Poe's Law thing, but the bit that makes it feel serious is the "most of the second" part. They may have only been four minutes long, but they sure didn't feel quick. I probably couldn't resist a bracingly pointless MA debate as opposed to watching the mind-numbingly pointless short, either.
I watched the first episode and I know it wasn't for me but I was just curious. I accepted Prodigy and that was a Nick Kids show so maybe there was something here I might enjoy. I didn't enjoy it. It's basically all the kid show cliches you can think of, from the dialoge that tries to be kick ass with it's sayings but just end up being corny or just the overall style. I hope kids enjoy it, but Prodigy this is not. Prodigy actually reminded me of some of the old 90s animated shows I enjoyed, and also things like Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels. This really was aimed directly at pre-schoolers.
