    I never thought I would see the day where Paramount let the Star Trek IP out of their ecosystem ever again, let alone on Netflix.

    When ENT was cancelled Doug Drexler and a bunch of the production staff tried to petition to get Netflix to pick up and finish at least one more season of the show. Everybody knew it wasn’t going to happen but it was a nice hope for a while.

    I didn’t watch all of Prodigy but I know a lot of my friends have enjoyed it and were upset at its general removal from the internet. It’s insane to think something that we wanted 10 years ago that we never thought possible is happening.

        Canonically he faked his death to go undercover and investigate a Romulan warp project or something like that. There’s a whole book about it.

    Netflix was the last streaming giant I would’ve thought to pick up ST. I expected it to wind up on Hulu.

    I’m glad the show will live on. It’s fantastic and I can’t wait to see more Janeway (please give her her own miniseries!).

      Netflix has carried nearly all ST series and movies for years before CBS started pulling everything for their own streaming service. And since they also have a deal with Nickelodeon, it’s the first place I expected it to go.

    How embarrassing will it be if STP has more viewers on Netflix than STD does on P+?
