I just had a thought.
So we know Dal is an augment 'built' off a human DNA base, right? However he's so specific I highly doubt he's the "Lab Accident" he keeps calling himself. Clearly, the "Protege" who made him had a vision in mind.
Which is why I always assume there are more like him out there - but what if THESE augments have different 'base' DNA?
Like. An Aureliam base, a Vulcan base, etc.
Just a thought I had. I'm on Mobile so it's formatting is probably a little messy.

This is incredible. After a single day, Star Trek: Prodigy has cracked Netflix Top 10 lists in six different countries and counting.
Keep up the momentum, Star Trek fans -- you are helping our show take flight!

Since people are posting theories, I have one of my own.
Tumblr media
Gwyn was under the assumption Starfleet couldn't accept Dal. If that was the case, I suspect she was planning on asking Dal if he would go with her to Solum.
Because "everyone deserves a place they belong", and they belong together. Who better to introduce her people to the Federation, than someone who is a good combo of several Federation worlds and has the heart of Starfleet?
(And the idea of a little time with him away from the others was maybe an attractive bonus?)
She knew she needed to go, but didn't want anything stopping him from trying for his dream, which is why she kept her mission to Solum a secret.
Tumblr media
But look how sad she was to realize she'd have to go alone. Still breaks my heart for her.
With everything going on for Season 2, I can't wait to see how they all find each other again.

Can we talk about the SUPURB concept scaling of Prodigy? The show is designed for kids and to be a gateway into the Star Trek universe. As such they need to slowly and carefully introduce you to the various Trek things most of us longer established fans understand without question.
Let me break down how the first half of the season establishes trek concepts step by step:
Episode 1. Introduces the universal translator, several types of Trek aliens including the Kazon and Medusans, and the Protostar ship.
Episode 2. Introduces phasers (pew pew) and shields.
Episode 3. Introduces holograms, the brig, the concept of the United federation, replicators (food and vehicle), and escape pods.
Episode 4. Introduces the concept of away missions, tricorders, and ship landings. It also reinforces the idea that holograms must remain within the ship.
Episode 5. Introduces klingons and the proto warp drive.
Episode 6. Introduces the holodeck, the concept of the Kobiashi Maru scenario, and Chakotay.
Episode 7. Introduces the transporters, Ferengi, and both the concepts of First Contact and the Prime Directive.
Episode 8. Introduces time travel shenanigans.
Episodes 9 and 10 are special because they both take everything we’ve learned up until now and puts them to work.
So by now we should understand how the protostar jump works, how universal translators work, how the holodeck works, how Medusans work, how holograms are supposed to work (to give us an added surprise when they function differently due to an upgrade) and we reinforce Starfleet ideals and beliefs.
Each episode takes you step by step, slowly acclimating you to these concepts so that further down the line when we see characters in wild settings that shouldn’t exist we just know “Ah, they’re on the holodeck.” Or see characters just appear out of nowhere “ah, that’s because of transporters.”
I know this should be obvious storytelling 101, but I’ve noticed that most other trek shows… just don’t do this at all. They just assume everyone knows what a transporter is, or what a holodeck is, or what phasers and tricorders are. And while to a degree some of that will be absorbed through pop culture osmosis, very few of the other trek shows stop and explain what these things are which makes getting into these shows more challenging for first time watchers.
So I greatly appreciate Prodigy assuming that viewers know next to NOTHING about the Trek world and take the time to let these concepts be introduced slowly over the span of multiple episodes. And each time it feels like we’re leveling up too.
This is good stuff!

Star Trek Prodigy is a great show and their second season is just wrapping up editing. News is that Paramount+ is shelving it and planning to remove it from their lineup. This is terrible news for fans as well as the cast and crew! Please like and share! @paramountplus @trekcultureYT #StarTrekProdigy #SaveStarTrekProdigy
Jun 24, 2023 Yesterday Paramount announced Star Trek: Prodigy will be leaving the streaming service as Season 2 post-production wraps. Here's Seán Ferrick with the news!

Everyone who has Netflix — or wants to sign up — be sure to watch all 20 episodes of STAR TREK: PRODIGY when it drops on Christmas Day! The more who watch them all in the first month, the better.
Who knows what the future may hold…🖖

A mini rant
I really wish tumblr fans and YouTube react channels would latch on to Star Trek Prodigy. Every week I’m reminded that so many of the people who “officially” review Star Trek content in general online have absolutely NO understanding of the young adult animation landscape.
Countless reviews gripe that the episodes are “too short,” while simultaneously missing all the key details they normally pay attention to in Star Trek because their mindset is still that of animation = for babies. They are so unwilling to engage with the media as it’s presented.
They’re definitely not familiar with the way most animated shows are written these days, where larger story beats are given out bit by bit and writers allow them to come together organically, rather than spoon fed to you upfront.
How many reviewers criticized Dal for being “unlikable” only to walk that back after the Kobiashi episode? How many reviewers complained it was “too much like Star Wars” after only the first episode and didn’t allow the show to even introduce the Trek content? Unwilling to give the character a chance to grow because they didn’t like his starting place?
I’m still salty about reviewers complaining in Dreamcatcher “why didn’t they use the transporter?” despite the show literally telling them that there was a certain type of radiation which is notorious for interfering with transporters. That’s the techno-babble jargon these types of reviewers should LOVE to sift through, but they ignored it and dismissed it and called it a “plot hole” because they don’t respect the intelligence of the writers and its intended audience.
And that’s a common theme I keep seeing. Just this past week it happened again with the Borg episode, where the reviewers complained about the Borg not using their nano-tubes ala First Contact despite the show intentionally referencing the end of Voyager. Instead of it being in line with established canon it’s written off as a way to make the Borg “less scary for kids.”
I don’t understand this seemingly collective amnesia from Trek fans who gloss over long standing established lore and only remember one or two things and forget everything else. I thought cataloguing all these details was one of the things Trekkies were supposed to be GOOD at!
Meanwhile… you wouldn’t see this dismissive attitude coming from young adult animation YouTube reactors. The people who obsess over The Owl House, Avatar, Korra, Amphibia, and Gravity Falls would pick up on those details IMMEDIATELY. They’d analyze the characters relationships, they ship the characters together, theorize about the time travel stuff, and be excited to get into a show like this! They’d ask a question, then the show would answer it, and they’d be like “oh cool! Now I understand!”
Where are my 2 hour long analysis videos about Dal and Gwyn’s relationship? Where are all the lgbt+ reviewers excited that Zero is non-binary? Where are all the reactors trying to protect Murf and Rok? Where are all the animation nerds geeking out over how amazing this show looks??? Where are my Diviner simps???? LOL
I don’t know how to spread my love of this show to other platforms like YouTube. I can’t make videos and I’m not gonna become a reactor. But if I have ANY sway here on tumblr… please, please, PLEASE, let other people who aren’t 50+ year old die-hard Trekkies find this show and start reacting to it!
Spread the word! This show is literally designed to get new people into Star Trek. I wanna see it! I wanna see these YouTuber react channels responding to this show with the same reverence and appreciation that they do for Gravity Falls and other young adult animated shows!
I wanna see people making crazy theories about time travel!
I wanna see people loving Dal’s growth as a character.
I wanna see people loving Gwyn’s sword.
I wanna see people fawning over Murf’s adorable-ness.
I wanna see people mothering Rok.
And more importantly… I wanna see people who’ve NEVER WATCHED Star Trek get into this show and say “I’m really loving Janeway, now I really wanna watch Star Trek Voyager too and see the real Janeway in action!”
These people exist. They’re out there. I know they do! I just have no idea how to reach them! So please, if you ever see a react channel asking “what should I watch next?” Please, please, PLEASE, recommend Prodigy! I fear that word of mouth is really the only way to do this now! Spread the word! Let people around you know how good this show is! Let more people find it! Let more people react to it! Help the show find the audience that seems to be completely missing it!
I love this show. I just want more people to get into it and create content for it! I do what I can here on tumblr, but I’m just one person. I can’t do it alone!
