On June 23, 2023, Paramount announced that it was going to remove several shows from its streaming service Paramount+ and cancel its animated Nickelodeon series "Star Trek: Prodigy" after the conclusion of its second season, due out in 2024. This announcement incurred the ire of Trekkies everywhere, as "Prodigy" would be left wholly unavailable to anyone who hadn't purchased a Blu-ray or DVD of the series. For a few days after the announcement, hard copies of "Star Trek: Prodigy" were in short supply, as panicked media collectors wanted to get their hands on a "Star Trek" show before it was seemingly erased from history completely.
A recent press release, however, has revealed a reprieve. Netflix has announced that it will be handling the presentation of "Star Trek: Prodigy" going forward.

Star Trek: Prodigy fans, rejoice! The series is boldly going to Netflix after its Paramount+ cancellation! The second season of Prodigy was halfway through production when Paramount pulled the plug, leaving fans floating among the stars with oxygen supplies steadily depleting. Thankfully, Netflix is picking up the previously aired first season with plans to air the second season once production is complete. Season one of Star Trek: Prodigy beams onto Netflix later this year, with the completed sophomore season coming in 2024.

Well, Paramount+ went there.
The streaming service on Friday canceled a wave of original series, and there are some shockers.
Before we dig into the cancellations, the canceled shows will be removed from its platform as the company takes a content write-down.
The news isn't too surprising. HBO Max opened the floodgates for the likes of Showtime and Starz to pull shows off the air and their platforms.
In fact, some shows didn't even see the light of day. It's a precedent that is a stark reminder of how media companies are set up nowadays.
We'll begin with Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, which launched earlier this year.
Despite a strong critical response, the series will not be returning.

Star Trek has endured since 1966 largely in part to the creators refusing to speak down to their audiences. Whereas “The Cage”, the first pilot shot in 1964, was deemed “too cerebral” by NBC execs, the show that made it on air rarely stopped being thought-provoking. When the three season mission ended, its next iteration was on Saturday morning television, where, once again, the writers and production team refused to dumb things down.

Nothing signals a network's confidence in a show than a renewal before the show's action has even hit its stride.
The newest member of Paramount+'s Star Trek family, the animated, family-friendly Star Trek: Prodigy, has earned a second season only three weeks into its first season.
Furthermore, they've shaken up the airing schedule so that fans will have new episodes to look forward to in January as well as later on in 2022. The big reveal no one was expecting: Season 1 will run an incredible Twenty episodes in length.
The length (and airing schedule) of Star Trek: Prodigy Season 1 breaks the pattern set by all the previous Trek series, including the preceding animated offering, Star Trek: Lower Decks.
Before this announcement, Star Trek: Discovery Season 1 was the longest season aired so far at fifteen episodes.

On October 28, Paramount+, in partnership with Nickelodeon, will launch Star Trek: Prodigy, the first Trek series created specifically for a target audience of young people.
This is a show that comes to the table with an exceptional pedigree in creativity. Creators Dan and Kevin Hageman are a powerhouse brother duo with writing credentials for long-running popular animated series such as Netflix's Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia and Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu.
At New York Comic-Con, they were joined by director Ben Hibon who brings experience in animation direction and design to the team. Together, the team spoke virtually with a roundtable of press members about the inspiration and aspirations of their fledgling series.
Not a children's show but also not in the vein of juvenile-yet-adult cartoons like Bojack Horseman and South Park, Star Trek: Prodigy harkens back to the epic adventure animated series like The Pirates of Dark Water and -- dare we mention it?...

Star Trek: Prodigy, Paramount+'s newest addition to the Trek family of shows, is not only created with a younger audience in mind but is also crewed by a cast of young people as well.
Fresh from a fun and exciting panel at New York Comic-Con, Rylee Alazraqui and Brett Gray met virtually with a roundtable of press members to discuss their characters in this whole new take on Trek.
Through the miracle of technology, co-star, Ella Purnell, was also able to join from her current filming location.
Despite their youth, this is a trio of experienced performers.
The youngest of the trio, Rylee Alazraqui, comes by voice-acting honestly as the daughter of the voice of Rocko himself, Carlos Alazraqui, and has multiple credits already under her belt.
Ella Purnell is well known for her live-action acting on TV series like Sweetbitter and Belgravia and the upcoming Yellowjackets.

The Star Trek franchise is among the most venerable of all 20th century entertainment properties. Having already birthed nine TV series and 13 feature films since its initially short-lived debut run in the 1960s, the thinking person’s space opera has mapped out the furthest reaches of the galaxy and all points in between. But now, it is prepared to boldly breach a demographic that it has not specifically attempted to tap before: kids.
Driven by showrunners Kevin Hageman and Dan Hageman, as well as director Ben Hibon, Nickelodeon’s animated “Star Trek: Prodigy” will introduce a fresh cast of protagonists, as well as animated versions of legacy characters, in particular the “Star Trek: Voyager” fan favorite Kathryn Janeway, voiced by returning actor Kate Mulgrew. “Star Trek: Prodigy” will first roll out on Paramount Plus later this month, before heading into Nickelodeon’s regular programming.

“Star Trek: Prodigy,” the latest addition to the expanding universe of “Trek” series on Paramount Plus, is adding sci-fi heavyweights John Noble (“Fringe”) and Jimmi Simpson (“Westworld”) to its series regular cast, the streamer announced on Thursday.
Noble will voice the animated series’ lead villain, known as the Diviner, who rules the mining asteroid of Tars Lamora in a merciless quest to locate the U.S.S. Protostar, the mysteriously abandoned experimental Federation starship at the center of the show. Instead, a motley crew of six young aliens finds the ship, and learns from the emergency training hologram, Janeway (Kate Mulgrew), how to operate it and what the Federation stands for.
One of the Protostar’s fledgling crew happens to be the Diviner’s child, Gwyn (Ella Purnell), which no doubt complicates matters for her new compatriots, especially since the Diviner sees Gwyn as the heir to his legacy.

Charting a brand new frontier for the “Star Trek” franchise, the cast and creators of Paramount Plus’ “Star Trek: Prodigy” debuted the teaser trailer for the animated kids series on Friday during the virtual Comic-Con@Home panel for the “Trek” TV universe.
The trailer establishes that executive producers Kevin and Dan Hageman and director/co-executive producer Ben Hibon are approaching the show — co-produced by Nickelodeon Animation Studio and CBS Eye Animation Productions — with a dramatic visual style that belies the series status as the first “Trek” series explicitly created for kids.
“It’s not designed just for kids,” Hibon said during the panel. “It’s just designed for lovers of animation, for lovers of sci-fi.”
“We wanted to be that little brother, little sister that smacked the bigger sibling and says don’t underestimate us,” added Dan Hageman.

San Diego Comic-Con 2021, the second Comic-Con@Home edition of the beloved pop culture event, kicks off its three-day run Friday.
The free online event, which runs through Sunday, isn't anywhere near as packed with panels as the famed in-person Sdcc usually is, but a decent number of studios and networks will still be hosting Q&As and digital screenings for their TV shows and movies.
As TheWrap reported exclusively earliest this month, HBO (which did present at the 2020 event) will be skipping this year's online con, but its sibling streaming service HBO Max is presenting a virtual event for the show, "gen:lock."
Other notable absentees from the second (and hopefully last) pandemic-forced virtual San Diego Comic-Con include Marvel Studios and DC Films, both of which did not attend the first Comic-Con@Home last year.

The next starship crew exploring the Final Frontier of Star Trek has arrived. No, it’s not guest stars for Picard Season 2, or a full break-down of the rest of the Strange New Worlds gang. Instead, after a decent amount of speculation, the full cast and character list for the upcoming animated series Star Trek: Prodigy has been revealed. And, it turns out there are some massive deep cuts to old school Star Trek canon, specifically, The Original Series.
Remember when Spock wore that red visor in the classic Star Trek episode “Is There In Truth No Beauty?” Well, one of the new alien crewmembers on Prodigy is a direct call-back to that alien species. Here’s the details of the new Prodigy crew and how it all connects to the larger Trek universe and timeline.

The newest member of the Star Trek franchise launches later this year and they have their sights set on a younger demographic with a whole new perspective on Starfleet and its strange, new worlds.
A co-production of Nickelodeon Animation Studio and CBS Studios, Star Trek: Prodigy will air on Paramount+ and features the return of Kate Mulgrew as the iconic Kathryn Janeway as the ship's emergency training hologram.
Paramount+ announced today the talented individuals who will voice the show's ragtag bunch of young crew members: Rylee Alazraqui, Dee Bradley Baker, Brett Gray, Angus Imrie, Jason Mantzoukas, and Ella Purnell.
Although some of the cast members are young actors, they all bring a wealth of experience and talent to the bridge and their respective characters.
Rylee Alazraqui plays Rok-Tahk, a Brikar and an unusually bright eight-year-old girl. Rok is a bit shy, but not when it comes to her love for animals.
