Josh Reviews Star Trek Prodigy: Season Two
The second season of the animated Star Trek: Prodigy came out last summer, but I never got around to posting a review. That does not reflect on the quality of the show, because I actually liked this second season a lot! I was dubious of Prodigy when it launched. An animated Star T
