Executive Producer Aaron Waltke’s list of positive ways to Save Prodigy include:
– Completing your watch of season one. There are still a few days and completion stats count.
– For those on Twitter and Mastodon using the hashtags #StarTrekProdigy and #SaveStarTrekProdigy.
— Using the ‘Save Prodigy’ avatars (linked here in an earlier post).
— Buying merchandise: DVDs, BlueRays, Actions Figures, Nintendo game etc. Much of this is already selling out in North America. In the UK, the DVD is now the top seller on Amazon.uk.
Additional options from fans that I’ve seen posted around social media to communicate your desire to Save Prodigy:
— Download Prodigy episodes from whatever streamer you watch Star Trek on (Paramount+, Crave Sky-Showtime etc.) or purchase season one and purchase to download from Amazon, Google etc.
– Buy the chapter books for 8-10 year olds. 2 of 4 have been released, with the other 2 on preorder through major sellers.
– Send a paper snail mail letter to the head of children’s programming at Paramount. I have seen this name and address posted elsewhere

– Sign the Save Star Trek Prodigy petition if you’re willing to deal with the (now commercialized) platform and the ensuing spam. (Completely understand why most folks here would not want to.) The petition has reached nearly 10k supporters in less than 2 days. By comparison, the one calling for Star Trek Legacy took weeks to gain this level of support.
Well goshdarn it you’re right, I see it too.
It will be very interesting to see how this plays out.
Glad we have the 4K discs of SNW season one.
Taking Trek of CTV Sci-fi Channel could kill it. There’s a bit of content they’re picking up from SyFy in the US, but with all but one of the CW shows canceled, and Bell Media making very few shows of their own, it won’t have the content for a premium cable channel.
Bell has been a tire fire for some time, so I won’t be remotely surprised if the station folds.
Then again, maybe the series being pulled from the streamer is separate from them airing on TV.
Actually, the broadcast vs streaming rights might separate.
Bell Media has broadcast rights to SyFy and CW shows in Canada, but Crave hasn’t had the streaming licences.
If Paramount wants to put Star Trek on Paramount+ and PlutoTV in Canada, Bell Media might pass on a nonexclusive licence renewal for Crave while keeping the linear licences.
Is it still on Netflix? I lost access when they stopped password sharing but last I checked they had everything before Discovery.
Star Trek has been leaving Netflix in all countries as its licences run out.
It hasn’t been available in Canada other than through Bell Media’s platforms.
Must have happened real recently, I was watching DS9 on Netflix in Canada in April.

You are correct. The classic series are all still listed on Netflix in Canada.
I‘be never actually watched them there so they haven’t come up in my algorithm.

I have PlutoTV in Canada. Star Trek doesn’t come up when I search.
It’s also the case that Paramount+ offers little Star Trek in Canada.
