The acclaimed animated series will be among many other Paramount+ original shows that will be removed from the service next week even as it merges content with Showtime on June 27.
One of the best of the most recent Star Trek TV shows is about to warp off its streaming home. Paramount has announced that Star Trek: Prodigy has been canceled and will no longer be available to stream off its Paramount+ service starting next week.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the show will be part of an overall tax write-off for Paramount+, along with the removal of other original shows such as Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, Queen of the Universe, and the revival of The Game. The decision also comes as the streaming service will officially bring in content from the cable TV service Showtime on June 27.
In a statement, Paramount says:
As we prepare to combine Paramount+ and Showtime later this month in the U.S., we are refining our content offering to deliver the best streaming experience for subscribers.
