[Elaise]

It is already renewed for season 2, in fact they should be done filming in the next week or so

They started out with 2 season from the get go, so it was not renewed.

Are you saying you want more nudity?

Quite right Elaise. Even though this show is tanking they have to release season 3 as its done. Too bad we got this show for the 60th. Also we get a puppet episode on SNW. Lol

Have Matt Winston and David Cronenberg share scenes together quipping back and forth like a multi Doctor episode of Doctor Who.

Daniels looks around Kovich's office.

Season 2 is already locked. I have my doubts we will see a season 3 even if the show is somewhat successful. New people in charge and all that and them wanting to bring in their own people with their own vision of what to do with Trek. For it to get a season 3 I think it can't just be a modest hit. It has to be a massive hit.

According to Google AI:
Starfleet Academy US Streaming: collected 2.1M viewers for the first eight days. While small compared to Taylor Sheridan series, it is above the full season averages for the [SNW S2 & Pic S3 - $1.3M]. Academy is still well ahead [1.6M 2 episode number for SNW S3

A slighly odd statement because all shows lose viewers after the premiere, making that comparison a bit disingenuous. According to the website 'Redshirts never die', it debuted at number 3 on Paramount plus, behind Landman and South Park. I didn't even know that South Park was still a thing!

I guess time will tell if it finds an audience and we see a third season. But at the moment, I don't see how its a good investment.

Landman started at over 5 million views its first season and the end of the first at about 16 million. Academy is far behind even labdmans initial 5 million. Also its losing ground not gaining.

They hoped to hook people with explosions and battle but after that its been downhill. They spent a huge amount of the budget on the first episode. The battles and explosions hooked some but the poor quality and writing of the next two episodes is sinking the show.

 

[Detached Nacelle]

I will always be astounded by the psychic abilities of some people to determine an episode they haven't seen has poor writing.

The question is probably whether it's pulling in more viewers to the platform than another season of Disco. The answer seems be very much yes.
