Comment on ‘Star Trek: Prodigy’ Finds New Home At Netflix After Paramount+ Cancellation
Disgustoid@startrek.website 8 months agoCorrect me if I’m wrong but if anyone kills the show, wouldn’t it be Paramount? Netflix is just picking it up to stream on their service.
I know people have their issues with Netflix but I’m just relieved it’s not Peacock or some other service no one cares about.

Just as a TV network “cancels” a series by deciding not to order/air it, Netflix could do the same. Theoretically.

But it seems clear at this point that Paramount believes that it’ll be able to make a return on its investment, so it’s just a matter of where the show eventually lands, not if the new season gets created.
Unless they do like WB did for Batgirl, and shitcan the entire season permanently as a tax write-off.

To be clear, I was being completely hypothetical. It makes no sense for Netflix to cancel something they literally just bought.
