Animated series debuted Oct. 28
“Star Trek: Prodigy” has been renewed for a second season at Paramount+, the ViacomCBS-owned streaming service said Monday. The CG-animated series, which is the first “Star Trek” show aimed at younger audiences, “follows a motley crew of young aliens who must figure out how to work together while navigating a greater galaxy, in search of a better future,” per its official description. “These six young outcasts know nothing about the ship they have commandeered – a first in the history of the ‘Star Trek’ franchise – but over the course of their adventures together, they will each be introduced to Starfleet and the ideals it represents.” Per Paramount+, the show “is already a hit amongst Paramount+ subscribers, and had the top-performing premiere day out of any original animated kids series on the service.
