The removal of Star Trek: Prodigy from Paramount+ has ruined any plans for a sequel to Star Trek: Voyager in the immediate future. Paramount recently announced the cancelation of Prodigy, despite season 2 being partly completed. Production will continue on season 2, while work continues to find Prodigy a new home on an alternative streaming service or network. It was a disappointing turn of events for Star Trek's first ever show aimed primarily at a younger audience, not least because it also continued the story of Admiral Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) for older Star Trek fans.

Set several years after the Star Trek: Voyager finale, Star Trek: Prodigy sent Captain Chakotay (Robert Beltran) back to the Delta Quadrant to fix some problems left behind by the USS Voyager's previous visit. Chakotay's new starship, the USS Protostar was later left abandoned, discovered by a group of youngsters led by Dal R'El (Brett Gray), whose adventures on the ship put them on a collision course with Admiral Janeway. The Star Trek: Prodigy season 1 finale teased an exciting new dynamic between the Starfleet veteran and her young charges, but Prodigy's current status leaves these new adventures suspended in limbo.

Not sure which you’re referring to.

The backdoor pilot in seasons three of Picard is very much Terry Matalas proposal.

The mix of one-shots, direct to streaming movies and mini/limited series for legacy characters across all the eras is something that Kurtzman described in an interview this March with SFX Magazine. TrekMovie recovered the key messages in an article that’s not behind a paywall.

By the way, even individual characters – I think we could absolutely continue to tell stories about individual characters that are set up on the show in other contexts. That’s the beauty of having a universe now is that, in a perfect world, we’re not just doing seasons of television, we’re doing event series [miniseries], we’re doing single events that could be two, three hours long [TV movies]. I think that we are now at a place where that’s really possible.

If there was an interview with Akiva Goldsman describing something similar to Kurtzman, it would be great to have that report.

I thought you mean Akiva's "Tales of the Federation" pitch
