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!
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.
@StillPaisleyCat @e_t_ oh that sounds promising. :)
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.
We did it, everybody!
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.
I normally avoid trailers and clips but couldn’t resist this time.
I was grinning through the whole thing! So happy that it’s looking so likely that we’re going to get the second season.
Big thank you for posting this
Doesn’t hurt to be optimistic.
Also doesn’t hurt if we are all supporting this show both by being vocal online and (if people
can afford it) supporting with our wallets. Physical blu-ray (my preference after how much digital and streaming has messed us around) or digital sales.
I hate this era of late stage capitalism where we reward companies for cancelling shows by buying all their merch
What a great first peek. I love seeing the Doctor. I’m happy to see this clip’s release, but I’m staying with cautiously optimistic about the where and when of Prodigy’s future home and seasons, and the availability for viewing of season 2. Leaning towards optimistic because someone had to give permission to release the clip. Paramount+ maybe? Until Prodigy has a new home, I’m guessing that Paramount+ owns the rights to Prodigy.
I don’t doubt that there are parties interested in carrying the show. They would gain a show with a preexisting, supportive fan base and become a part of the Star Trek realm.
All in all, an impressive response by Star Trek fans to Prodigy and the creative team’s poor treatment by Paramount+. Go team Star Trek fans!
I see they’ve not done anything to rectify the horror show that is Rok-Tahk’s mouth.
