That show was already great and season 2 delivered and then some. Sure at points it feels kinda star wars-y but you can tell the creators really love Star Trek. The fact it was so unceremoniously cancelled then dumped really shows how out of touch studio executives are with the IP’s they own. Especially considering how god awful the final season of Discovery was (l mostly liked that show but Season 5 really leaned into every weak point of the series and jacked it up to 11).
Anyway, I am annoyed we’ll likely never get a 3rd season of Prodigy—and even if we do it likely will lose the lightning they caught with the first two seasons. If y’all have been sleeping on it, please check it out.

I wonder how bad the numbers were; if it was losing money, or they just didn’t make all the money like they wanted. Sometimes you have to give things time to find the audience.
Prodigy is a bit of a weird one, and I’m not surprised it didn’t catch on right away. IMO, it could’ve been profitable(if it isn’t already), with the audience slowly and steadily increasing.
FTR, I’m old, and I love it. I was disappointed I didn’t see someone, but you can’t have everything
