88. Murf Slime Possibilities (Prodigy 1.01)

It's time … for brand new Star Trek! Anika and Liz sit down to talk about Star Trek: Prodigy, and discuss: 

• It's a little bit Star Warsy … but we think that's a good thing
• Star Trek has a reputation for being extremely serious, and its fandom for being utterly humourless, and Prodigy is taking Star Wars and MCU fans and showing them that's not true
• Save the cat (no, please, save that poor kitten!)
• We love and adore Gwyn, a character who was practically made for us
• The darkness of children's stories
• How did all these alpha quadrant species end up in a prison mine in the delta quadrant? We smell shenanigans!
• Angus Imrie's Emma Thompson impression
• Anika's theory as to how Drednok is a Jason Isaacs character

It's the episode where we are definitely shipping Dal/Gwyn!
