    User flair is unfortunately not a thing on Lemmy, but this is as good a time as any to confirm that we have independently verified that OP is Aaron J. Waltke, writer/producer of Star Trek: Prodigy.

      Going to chime in then and say: THANK YOU!!

      Prodigy is an amazing show. I hope it finds a home soon. I just recommended it to my 80 year old father. My wife and I just about died with happiness rewatching season 1 recently. All around, the best Trek in years

      I cannot wait for season 2, let’s make it so!

    Loved this show and my kids did too. Ripping it off the platform is a bad precedent, and one I hope Paramount comes to regret.

    CBS Studios has remained committed to finding a new distributor for the show and is finishing postproduction work on the new episodes.

    This is good to hear. Their optimism is encouraging.

    I wish the first season was still streaming somewhere.

    Don’t get it. I thought Paramount owned Star Trek why isn’t it on P+?

    I get Nickelodeon was involved.

      Paramount+, the streamer, doesn’t want it on their platform, for whatever reason.

      CBS Studios, the production house, wants to sell it to a different platform.

      They’re both subsidiaries of Paramount Global, but they have different priorities.
