If anyone is curious as to why the Protostar crew have only had a single mention, Aaron Waltke has clarified that PRO was being written at the same time as SFA.
Whoa, Prodigy feels like ages ago now. The unseen, asynchronous work cycles of preproduction are even more of a mystery to me now.
It’s wild to think that this SFA season finished filming a year ago, and was written even earlier than that.
In terms of filming, if they can keep getting renewed and finish shoots while the previous season airs, that’s a very healthy schedule to my eyes. But yeah, I sometimes lose sight of how long the production process is, especially with a show that feels as timely as this.
