Didn’t see this coming. Prodigy EPs the Brothers Hageman have dropped a scene from season two, episode one.

And it’s on the official StarTrek.com site.

My spouse is muttering ‘makes no sense at all…’

I’m enjoying just having gorgeous new Prodigy animation to see. And those of you who love a great flyby of a new ship - get ready!

Chances are there are marketing bots at play in prep for STD Season 5

I would suspect it’s because everyone has their own, individual tastes, and even for the people who prefer PRO, most of them don’t feel the childish need to disparage another show they like less or dislike.

I suspect many of us also take exception to the intransigent insistence on using the perjorative ‘STD’ when that is not and never has been the short form for Discovery. (We haven’t see ST:TOS and ST:TNG in use in decades.)

I love Prodigy and am advocating strongly for its return. What I have no tolerance for is denigrating another show in the franchise, that has been successful in its own audience niche, to promote the ones I most wish to see.

I see they’ve not done anything to rectify the horror show that is Rok-Tahk’s mouth.

Not sure it’s uncanceled quite yet…

Is this marketing ahead of landing in its new home, or has Paramount decided to reverse its decision for streaming at leas? (It pretty clear that Nickelodeon can’t afford it for linear.)

The Hagemans are still referring to a ‘new home.’

It’s very interesting that startrek.com hasn’t acknowledged the cancellation even once.

It’s been altogether strangely managed from a strategic communications angle.

Did Paramount realize how badly they screwed up with the cancellation?

This is coming out of a presentation at Star Trek Las Vegas by the Hagemans.

TrekMovie.com is quoting them as follows:

Right now, there are active talks happening and I’m being 100% honest with you, we are 99% confident that there will be a new home for our show.

Knowing a few people who have worked on series that ended up looking for new networks, I feel pretty confident that for zillions of reasons (both legal and promotional) they would never have shown this footage if it wasn’t basically a done deal –– this is just marketing to see us go bananas over the Doctor before they reveal the streaming deal. Which –– I could not believe it when I woke up this morning because I was totally sure all the “new home” stuff was entirely wishful thinking and that Prodigy was fully dead.

If there’s going to be more voyager characters I really hope Neelix gets a cameo for an episode. I’d love to see him back in the kitchen with Jankom taste testing lol

I’d love a Neelix cameo. Have him running or assisting a Talaxian colony somewhere.
