Paramount+ Ran a New Star Trek Episode Every Week for Six Whole Months
In January Paramount+ made the unhinged announcement of its schedule for five of its six active Star Trek series in 2022, revealing that from January 6 all the way up to July 7, there would be one new episode of a Star Trek show between Prodigy, Discovery, Picard, and Strange New Worlds every Thursday. Hell, on some there’d be two, with Discovery and Strange New Worlds overlapping with the start and end of Picard’s sophomore season, respectively.
It’s an unprecedented level of saturation Trek’s not seen since Deep Space Nine and Voyager were airing concurrently. We lived through it and I’m still not sure how this happened.
