The journey back to Janeway's stomping ground began around three years ago, when Star Trek overlord Alex Kurtzman approached the Hageman Brothers - Dan and Kevin - for an "entry" Trek show. Born in part from wanting to create a jumping-on point for a new generation of fans, and in part from wanting to return the series to toy shelves, it was never entirely “just for kids”, as Dan explains.

The brothers joke that their first thought was, "Oh God, we don't want to be the people that ruin Star Trek”, but say the journey to Prodigy was one of their smoothest to date.
Dan recalls the moments after their first meeting with production company Secret Hideout. “We were in the parking lot, getting back into our cars. We were like, 'Well, if you make this about characters who don't know anything about Star Trek, then there's a security blanket there. We feel like you have to be a superfan in order to write a Star Trek show, but once we let go of that fear..."
