Star Trek: Prodigy Sneak Peeks Debut During NFL Sunday Football
Paramount+ offered Star Trek fans two sneak previews of Star Trek: Prodigy during yesterday's NFL football games. Star Trek: Prodigy, the first Star Trek series aimed at younger viewers, debuts this week on Paramount+. Previous footage showed Hologram Janeway's debut. The first new preview for the series shows two of its characters, Dal (Bretty Gray) and Rok-Tahk (Rylee Alazraqui), powering the USS Protostar on for the first time. The Protostar is a derelict, experimental Starfleet vessel that was somehow left stranded in the Delta Quadrant. The ship's universal translator system allows the two characters, each of a different alien species, to understand each other for the first time.
The second clip shows Dal on the run and robots giving chase. He makes his way to the more dangerous parts of what looks like a mining facility while the Diviner (John Noble) watches remotely. You can see both previews below.
The Protostar is powering up.

Star Trek: Prodigy will follow a motley crew of young aliens who must figure out how to work together while navigating a greater galaxy searching 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. Throughout their adventures together, they will each be introduced to Starfleet and the ideals it represents.
