Star Trek: Prodigy marked a significant departure from the traditional Star Trek format. This action is in line with a recent trend of streaming platforms removing content, a movement led by Warner Bros. The decision was reportedly data-driven, although Paramount has not shared any specific data to highlight why these shows are being cancelled and removed. The other series include The Game, Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, and Queen of the Universe. Star Trek: Prodigy was among four shows that were not only cancelled but also scheduled for removal from Paramount+. There are, however, other ways to watch the show in the UK (see below). So fans who still want to watch (or rewatch) the show – will have to hurry up. In the UK, Paramount+ confirmed to us that Star Trek: Prodigy will be removed from the streaming service on June 30, 2023.
In the US, the animated children’s show set in the Star Trek universe has already been removed from Paramount+, on June 26. Last week’s surprising cancellation announcement was a blow, but this imminent removal marks a new chapter in the saga. In a development that’s already angering Star Trek fans, the ground-breaking animated series, Star Trek: Prodigy, is on the brink of disappearing from Paramount+’s UK platform.
