Plot Synopsis

Developed by Kevin and Dan Hageman, STAR TREK: PRODIGY is a CGI-animated series that follows a motley crew of young aliens who must figure out how to work together while navigating a greater galaxy, in search for a better future. These six young outcasts know nothing about the ship they have commandeered -- a first in the history of the Star Trek franchise -- but over the course of their adventures together, they are introduced to Starfleet and the ideals it represents. STAR TREK: PRODIGY, the first STAR TREK series aimed at younger audiences, dropped on Paramount+ before having its linear television premiere on Nickelodeon, beginning on Friday, July 8, 2022. After a seven-week break, STAR TREK: PRODIGY returned with new episodes on Thursday, January 6, 2022 on Paramount+. In the winter premiere, "Kobayashi," Gwyn struggles to find her role aboard the Protostar, and Dal tests his leadership skills in the newly discovered holodeck.

After a 8.5-month break, STAR TREK: PRODIGY returned with new episodes on Thursday, October 27, 2022 on Paramount+, as the streaming service released the fall premiere. A new episode drops weekly through November 24. Billy Campbell joins the Season 1 voice cast with a recurring role. Campbell will reprise his STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION role as Thadiun Okona, a roguish space captain who's constantly outrunning trouble caused by his own tactics. When he runs into the young, impressionable Protostar crew, he'll soon discover they are in more hot water than he is.In the remaining STAR TREK: PRODIGY season one episodes, as the hopeful crew makes their way towards Starfleet, their dreams are threatened when they discover the U.S.S. Protostar harbors a weapon designed to tear the United Federation of Planets apart. To make matters worse, the real Vice Admiral Janeway is on a manhunt for the Protostar, eager to uncover what happened to her missing former First Officer Chakotay. With these two ships on a collision course and destruction on the horizon, the fate of the Alpha Quadrant hangs in the balance.
