I think it goes without saying - or it should - that watching it through official channels is better for the longevity of the show, if that's an option where you live.
not sure why they’re dropping the ball on this one.
My best guess is that the season 1 ratings on the CTV Sci-Fi channel weren't great, and despite being a massive media conglomerate, they don't really have a "kids' channel" to put it on instead.
There has been no official announcement regarding the launch of season 2 of Prodigy in Canada on CTV or any other platform, including Netflix and Paramount+.
This isn't entirely true. Prodigy-related news releases on startrek.com used to say that the series would be available on CTV.ca and the CTV app - that language disappeared around June.
At this point, I think CTV simply isn't going to release it, despite being the sole license holder
The images in question appear to use rudimentary image editing to reference older games in the IP’s catalogue, namely Star Trek: Armada, Star Trek: Invasion, and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Dominion Wars, along with a series of numbers that would suggest a spelled-out message.
Players on Twitter and on Reddit have been working to break these ciphers and have come to the conclusion that these are teasing a new ship bundle that packs in spacecraft from older games: Two particularly sleuthy Redditors have worked out the word “bundle” from the numbers strings, with some of the more popularly held assumptions being that STO will be getting the Premonition, Typhon and Achilles.
For some reason, I've been mentally giving all the credit/blame to Murray Gold, but of course RTD would have done the lyrics.
There is one bit that lives rent-free in my head - it works surprisingly well as long as you remember that poor Ruby is improvising:
It's good to meet you
Good to greet you
Good to say
How diddly-deet you
Yeah, I think I'm right there with you - I didn't even notice the structural wonkiness until this most recent rewatch. The episode's a hoot.
I love/hate it when I get bumped by stupid stuff like that.
I'm also a "yea" - the one thing that bumped me was Ruby joining in so readily. My first assumption was that it was the magic at work, but then I remembered that they sort of introduced her musical talent during the pub scene. I don't think we saw quite enough to ascertain how talented she was, though.
I felt like I was talking to myself last week, and I don't actually have to be online to do that, so rather than type out my full thoughts on this one, I'll aim for controversy.
The Goblin Song: yea or nay?
I'm in a bit of a rut, as well - I mainly enjoy the story content, and the current multiverse arc isn't really grabbing my attention. I don't hate it, but I wouldn't say I'm highly engaged.
Assuming you're in the Netherlands, season 1 is apparently available on SkyShowtime, with season 2 "coming soon."
It occurs to me that they're referring to the headline, which...yeah, okay.
Not everything needs to be ranked.
Yeah, Crave won the first round of the Canadian streaming wars, and Shomi was shut down.
