The announcement was made in a new commercial for Paramount+ and Showtime, which teased the upcoming integration of the services in the year 2023. There was a clip from the first season of Prodigy under the words “New season streaming this year.”
Prodigy’s executive producers thought the second season would premiere in 2023 at a panel in January, but Kevin Hageman said, “We don’t even know when it’s going to be published.” At the time, they were doing the final mix of the first two episodes, but Ben Hibon assured everyone that production was “in full swing” and all twenty episodes would be finished by the end of the season.
Another big year for Trek
With the confirmation from Paramount+, it looks like there will be a whopping 50 brand new episodes of Star Trek in 2023, just like in 2022. Picard’s third season premieres next week, so that’s when it really kicks off. The second season of Strange New Worlds, the fourth season of Lower Decks, and the fifth season of Discovery will all premiere on Paramount+ in 2023, as originally announced.
The second season of Prodigy will likely be split into two 10-episode parts, with the second half set to premiere in 2024. Check out the latest promo for Paramount+, which includes a plug for the third season of Star Trek: Picard.
Review: ‘Star Trek: Prodigy’ season 1
I wasn’t sure what to expect from Prodigy, and I know I wasn’t alone among the fans. I hoped it would inspire new audiences to embrace the Star Trek franchise. The opening scene, which depicts a number of alien children forced to work on a distant asteroid, may not be what you expect, but it establishes the context of the story and the challenges these children must overcome.
Once our ragged crew locates the USS Protostar and meets Hologram Janeway, it’s clear the program understands what makes Trek so beloved, as well as how best to introduce newcomers to the Federation and Starfleet.
It’s a sweet show with lots of heart and well-written characters who, with the reassuring guidance of Holo Janeway, develop into fuller humans once they’re no longer forced to work as slaves on Tars Lamora. Of these first 10 episodes, “Kobayashi” and “Time Amok” are especially noteworthy.
The Blu-ray set
Two Blu-ray discs contain the first ten episodes of the season in addition to bonus material. As is common for a Paramount/CBS home video release, the discs prominently display the titles of the episodes they contain, and a full list of the set’s contents is located on the inside back of the box.
The season can be purchased on a standard DVD for those who like it. Also included are four character cards with additional information about the show, the Federation, Starfleet, etc. on the back.
