The Hottest Anticipated Reveals of Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2!

Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 is anticipated to find a new home in order to address the remaining unanswered questions surrounding Vice Admiral Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew), Dal R'El (Brett Gray), and their team. Surprisingly, Paramount+ has announced the cancellation of Prodigy season 2 and the removal of season 1 from their service. Although the announcement promises completion of the 20 episodes comprising Prodigy season 2, there is currently no information on which network or streaming platform will acquire the show. This disappointing development raises concerns that the unresolved plotlines from Star Trek: Prodigy season 1 may never be resolved.

The existence of a social media campaign and an online petition to revive Star Trek: Prodigy brings hope that the Hageman Brothers' secretive Star Trek: Voyager continuation will find a new platform. While there is still hope for Star Trek: Prodigy season 2, it is worth exploring the lingering questions left by the season 1 finale. Following the destruction of USS Protostar and the demise of Hologram Janeway (Kate Mulgrew), efforts now focus on rescuing Captain Chakotay (Robert Beltran) from the alternate future in which he and his crew are trapped.

10 What Else Is Different In Star Trek's Alternate 25th Century?

Captain Chakotay finds himself stranded 53 years into an alternate future, where Solum, the planet, suffered a devastating civil war after its initial contact with Starfleet and the Protostar. When the USS Protostar was destroyed in the finale of Star Trek: Prodigy, it effectively erased this timeline since First Contact would never occur. Nonetheless, Janeway and her crew must journey to the alternate timeline to rescue Chakotay and the Protostar crew, allowing us to witness the divergent course of history on Solum.

The civil war on Solum stemmed from a conflict regarding whether the Vau N'kat should consider establishing diplomatic relations with the "alien" United Federation of Planets. Though the Federation opted not to intervene, as it fell outside their jurisdiction, it raises intriguing questions regarding how Chakotay, a former Maquis member from Star Trek: Voyager, would have reacted to the Federation's non-intervention in a war that nearly wiped out the Vau N'kat.

9 How Will Gwyn Unite The Vau N'Kat?

Gwyndala (Ella Purnell) has opted out of joining her former crew mates on their mission to rescue Chakotay. Instead, her role will focus on ensuring a more optimistic trajectory for history by uniting her people prior to their eventual First Contact with Starfleet. However, during this crucial juncture in their history, the Vau N'Kat firmly believe that they are the sole species in existence. Therefore, Gwyn faces the challenging task of persuading them otherwise. Additionally, there is the complex temporal predicament of the potential encounter between Gwyn and the younger version of her father, the Diviner (John Noble). This meeting begs the question of whether it could give rise to further complications within the multiple timelines of Star Trek: Prodigy.

8 Is Janeway's New Ship The USS Voyager-A?

In order to continue their mission in Star Trek: Prodigy season 2, Dal R'El and his young companions require a new starship now that the Protostar is no longer available. In the concluding scene of the season 1 finale, Dal, Janeway, and the crew witnessed the launch of a brand-new starship of the Protostar-class. However, Janeway made it clear that this vessel was not the one they would be using for their upcoming mission. She informed the young crew members that she has "a much bigger plan," which could involve returning to a refurbished and repaired version of the USS Dauntless. Alternatively, it is also possible that Janeway is hinting at the return of the USS Voyager, perhaps in the form of the USS Voyager-A, in Star Trek: Prodigy.

From a viewer's perspective, if Janeway had intended to save Chakotay, she would have openly stated her intentions. The fact that she chose to conceal the identity of their ship implies that the Hageman Brothers had plans to unveil a new version of Voyager, known as Voyager-B, as a major attraction in Prodigy season 2. As a nod to the possibilities, a Star Trek: Picard season 3 Easter egg hinted that the USS Voyager-B was slated for its launch in the year 2401. With Prodigy's season 1 finale occurring approximately 17 years prior to this, it allows for ample time for the initial launch of Voyager-A in the quest to locate Chakotay.

7 Will More Voyager Characters Join Star Trek: Prodigy?

After successfully reintroducing Janeway and Chakotay, Star Trek: Prodigy has the potential to bring back more beloved characters from Star Trek: Voyager. The inclusion of Lt. Tom Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill) becomes crucial as Janeway navigates through a temporal anomaly, while it has already been unveiled that Lt. B'Elanna Torres (Roxann Dawson) worked on the USS Dauntless. With their unique partnership as a married couple, Tom and B'Elanna possess invaluable skills that can greatly assist Janeway and her youthful crew.

6 How Are Chakotay And His Crew Faring In The Delta Quadrant?

: With the Hageman Brothers hinting at the return of familiar faces in Star Trek: Prodigy season 2, the possibility of Janeway's former crew making an appearance remains open. Although a cameo by Harry Kim was cut from Star Trek: Picard season 3, the inclusion of the enduring Voyager Ensign feels like a natural choice. Additionally, as Seven of Nine is not currently a Starfleet officer in her timeline and the status of Star Trek: Legacy is uncertain, it is plausible that her character could be available for use in Prodigy. Many Star Trek fans eagerly anticipate a reunion between Janeway and Seven, making it a highly desired occurrence in Prodigy season 2.

Chakotay, alongside his second-in-command, Commander Adreek-Hu (Tommie Earl Jenkins), managed to break free from imprisonment on Solum. Their objective was to send the USS Protostar back in time in order to thwart the nefarious schemes of the Vau N'Kat. However, this daring escapade left the remaining crew stranded on Solum, vulnerable to the mercy of the Vau N'Kat. In a desperate mayday transmission to Starfleet Command, Chakotay bravely disclosed that half of his crew had vanished, but his resilient spirit endured. Given his past as a Maquis member, renowned for his knowledge in guerrilla tactics, it is conceivable that Chakotay and his fellow survivors have already evaded captivity and are currently engaged in a fierce struggle for their survival and liberation amidst the treacherous Solum.

5 Will We See More Mr. Murfy No Shoes In Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2?

Star Trek: Prodigy season 1 showcased an exceptional holodeck episode titled "Kobayashi", which was widely regarded as one of the best in Star Trek history. However, a close contender for that title was "Ghost in the Machine". This particular episode marked the introduction of Mr. Murfy No Shoes, a 1920s jazz crooner alter-ego of Mellanoid Slime Worm called Murf, brilliantly portrayed by Dee Bradley Baker. As the season progressed, Murf evolved into a remarkably skilled security officer, leaving us intrigued about the adventures that await him in season 2. With Rok-Tahk, portrayed by Rylee Alazraqui, embarking on a career in xenobiology, Starfleet may finally have the opportunity to establish communication with Mellanoid Slime Worms, allowing Mr. Murfy No Shoes to showcase his vocal talents in Prodigy season 2.

4 Where Did Jameela Jamil's Vindicator Go In Star Trek: Prodigy's Season 1 Finale?

Jameela Jamil, known as The Vindicator, managed to penetrate Starfleet by assuming the identity of Trill officer Asencia. Operating on the USS Dauntless, she was part of a group of a hundred operatives dispatched back in time with the mission of retrieving the USS Protostar and executing Starfleet's annihilation. Employing the Living Construct, The Vindicator successfully instigated a conflict within Starfleet, pitting their own vessels against each other, before vanishing without a trace. It remains uncertain whether she returned to her original time in the 25th century or if she is currently rallying her fellow agents for a future assault on Starfleet in season 2 of Star Trek: Prodigy.

3 Whatever Happened To Jankom Pog's Crew?

Jankom Pog (Jason Mantzoukas) was introduced as an orphan from the 22nd century, who was sent on a deep space mission accompanied by a crew of 30 Tellarites. During Jankom's absence, the Tellarites rose to prominence and played a key role in establishing the Federation, maintaining significant influence even in the 24th century. While Jankom himself was placed in cryosleep for centuries before being accidentally awakened, it remains a mystery what fate befell his fellow crew members upon his departure from the ship. Given the presence of Kazon slaving ships in the vicinity, it is plausible that they encountered a fate similar to Jankom during their voyage to the Delta Quadrant, their ultimate destination.

2 Will Starfleet Ever Accept Dal And The Other Augments?

The trial of Number One, portrayed by Rebecca Romijn, in "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" shed light on the challenges faced by genetically enhanced beings. Taking place more than a century before Dal R'El's attempt to join Starfleet, the recent series "Star Trek: Prodigy" suggests that little has changed in the Federation's perspective. The lasting impact of Khan Noonien Singh, played by Ricardo Montalban, continues to haunt the Federation even after centuries since his reign of terror. Una's trial in "Strange New Worlds" provides a glimmer of hope, implying that if each case is individually considered, Dal may eventually prove himself and earn an official Starfleet commission.

1 Can Star Trek: Prodigy Complete Its Original Delta Quadrant Mission?

The USS Protostar was initially launched with the aim of rectifying the mistakes made in the Delta Quadrant during the journey of the USS Voyager in Star Trek. Vice Admiral Janeway lamented the poor judgments she had made while leading the Voyager back home, and hoped that Starfleet could make reparations. However, since the Protostar has been destroyed and Chakotay is missing in an alternate future, this mission is currently on hold. Consequently, the possibility of continuing this mission in season 3 of Star Trek: Prodigy, where there is no designated home, is significantly reduced. It is imperative that a new home is soon found so that Chakotay can resume his mission of restoring Starfleet's reputation in the Delta Quadrant.
