strangely if you search star trek prodigy on paramount plus (in my case as an addon to my primevideo subscription) - episodes s1e03 and 04 are available and play fine. The rest are marked unavailable as expected.

I’m guessing its a mistake, but would be cool if this were an indication of something happening

    Avast! When there be no way to pay gold doubloons for a thing, I sit patiently in me boat and save me doubloons for a chance to legally purchase a collectors edition later.

    I’ve heard tales of lost shows found on the high seas, but I take no part in that, myself. O’course, I’d never judge a soul who did.

    But perhaps all good sailors do as I do. Perhaps they he equally unwilling to sail the friendly high seas on a VPN in search of lost treasure.

    Surely Paramount will make good profits on this twisted venture. Yarrr.

    If ye agree with me that this might be, I’ve a bridge I been meaning to sell to an investor as thoughtful at Paramount…

    Yeah, these will be gone the second someone realizes. Probably an error between Amazon and Paramount.

      Prodigy has been removed from Paramount Plus.

      Technically yes they do own Star Trek, but the way the accounting works is they sell the broadcast/streaming rights back to themselves. It’s a bit convoluted, but taking the rights away from their own service means CBS as a studio can either resell it to another broadcaster/streamer or failing that write it off for tax purposes.

      It sucks, but all the studios rig it up this way
