Prodigy EP Aaron Waltke is continuing to update on progress on his mastodon account.

“The world needs to see this.”

We’re with you @GoodAaron@mastodon.social.

For those who missed it, Prodigy picked up a Children and Family Emmy nomination for 2021-2022 Outstanding Animated Series.

I finally signed up to paramount plus to watch Prodigy, got through 4 episodes, was starting to enjoy it... and then they pulled it with no warning. My wife was watching Queen of the universe on there too, same thing happened. Still can't believe someone at paramount thought it was a good idea.

One can only imagine how bittersweet it is for the creatives in postproduction to be working to complete the show, episode by episode, when their previous work has been pulled from every platform.

Aaron Waltke sounds like a cheerful but competent leader. It’s got to be a real test of leadership to hold up teams morale and the quality while those above shop the show to alternate platforms.

Anything we can do here to let them know our support for the show isn’t flagging, seems the least we can do.

And by the way, there are indications that the dvd and blue ray preorders of Prodigy Season 1 Part are going well. Target has already sold out its preorder quota in the US by some reports.

Physical media demand is a significant factor in ensuring the Prodigy team get some residuals and shows interest. If you haven’t preordered yet, please consider doing so. There are other vendors.
