With Connor almost continually gone working odd jobs (and jet-skiing) at a friend's house and Trevor having just eaten "breakfast" due to second shift work schedule, Rowen and I have found ourselves eating lunch together. It had been my earlier plan to watch the Daredevil TV series at that time, and we started doing so with Connor initially; however, he does not want us watching it without him, so we had to find another show. Enter Star Trek Prodigy--a kid-focused cartoon Star Trek series on the Paramount+ streaming service.
I've enjoyed it. While I don't feel that it is a great as some of the reviews made it out to be, it is certainly an entertaining show that is geared more towards Rowen's age, but is still enjoyable for me to watch. The main selling point for me is that Kate Mulgrew voices a holographic "instructor" based on Captain Kathryn Janeway from Star Trek Voyager. I deeply enjoy every moment that she has screen time.
All of the characters are entertaining, even if they bend away from realism in cartoonish ways. While parts of the story border on the absurd, I have certainly become invested in what will happen to this crew. Only the first half of the first season is currently available and the mid-season finale ended on a bit of a cliffhanger, so I'm looking forward to see how they finish out this season.
However, with those shows now watched, Rowen and I need to pick up a different lunchtime show.
