Oh, right, that one.

Rebingeit podcast with a wrap-up of season 1 and speculation about season 2.
One of the suggestions is that more may yet be learned about Dal's background (why he was made, how he got to Mandi,...).

I'd probably say whoever made him went to the Delta Quadrant to avoid any strong law enforcement as it's the last "Wild West Frontier" of the Galaxy. Alpha and Beta are well civilised, Gamma is largely Dominion controlled and has treaties with the other civilised powers of the galaxy.
Really, it's the only quadrant left to play fast and loose with the law.
I really doubt that, because the quadrants are much, much huger than any single civilization. The entire Federation and all its neighbors are just a tiny speck out of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. If the galactic disc is a jumbo vegetarian pizza, then all the local powers would fit into a single slice of olive. (Can you guess what I had for lunch?) The vast majority of all four quadrants remains unexplored. The TNG writers' bible asserted that as of 2364, only 19% of the galaxy had even been charted, and far less of it had actually been directly visited by starships. (Most of that charting was probably done remotely by telescopes or uncrewed deep-space probes like the one that identified Idran in the Gamma Quadrant.)
The problem with talking about quadrants is that it's like talking about hemispheres of the Earth. It's way, way too large-scale to be remotely useful in most contexts, except in the context of talking about very long-range travel from one to another. Trek's tendency to use it more broadly, though understandable due to the lack of other meaningful subdivisions of the galactic disk, is highly misleading and implies the galaxy is far tinier than it actually is. Even if you could visit a new star every minute, it would still take three-quarters of a million years to visit every star in the galaxy, or about 190,000 years to visit every star in a single quadrant. So even a comparatively old, far-reaching civilization like the Borg would still only have spread through a small percentage of its quadrant. It just wouldn't have had time to do more.

Apparently, Prodigy doing pretty good, or even great, in Streaming numbers (according to parrot analytics). Here's to hoping this means that extension for a season 3 (and preferably, right away a season 4 as well so both can be planned out as a whole) is a no brainer.

That's good to know. The internet feels comparatively quiet regarding Prodigy, and I have a faint undercurrent feeling of Trek underperforming following Disco S4 and PIC S2.
It was a good show. There's no headline there.
I could say the same thing about Lower Decks. No one has posted in that forum since Sunday, and that was a post I made. I'm rooting for the animated shows above the other shows.
In my experience, shows that do well don't always get talked about the same way. It's like going to a food establishment and everything goes well. Rarely do I go out and say, "OH MY...it was amazing." No, it just was a fun experience. I don't post about it or anything. It just is.
Lack of discussion might be a simple indication of just enjoyment.

Lower Decks has similar numbers I think, and is probably cheaper to produce (at least, the animation style looks like it would take less time/money to make, but I'm not an expert). Recent news is also that Paramount+ will bring it to more countries, along with Picard S3. Future of that show looks probably quite rosy.
Then again, one never knows with corporate logic. If they think they can make more money with other projects and they are willing to take a risk for that, they could still dump any show I suppose.
Cost cutting knows very little logic.
Well, if they’re reaching their purported target audience, where are the youth now? Discord? Minecraft? TikTok? Anyhow, less easily searchable places, I think?
It's probably a brand new design. If they're following the idea of shuttle nacelles matching the mothership, there's no ship out there right now with nacelles like that.
Voyager B? What have I missed?
Picard spoilers.
Interesting. I have seen the premiere, but appear to have missed that. Though, if there's already a Voyager B by 2401, I guess Voyager A doesn't last long.
Damn, Starfleet seems to run through a lot of ships in that time frame.

So, current USS Voyager lineup:
(0th - head-canon: USS Voyager NCC-73602, Bradbury class - active 2368-2370 - the class underperformed).
1st USS Voyager NCC-74656, Intrepid class, 2371-2377, recommissioned 2409 (STO)
2nd USS Voyager-A, 2384-??
3rd USS Voyager-B, Pathfinder class, 2401-??

Well, the Bradbury wouldhavedonebetterif it didn't have that 451 degree weakness.
