Tonight, we’re boldly going where a few series have gone before. Star Trek: Starfleet Academy has failed to get renewed; its second season will be its last. Premiering on Paramount+ in January, the second season was greenlit before then. CBS Studios has released a joint statement with the streamer, “We’re incredibly proud of the ambition, passion, and creativity that went into bringing ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ to life. The series introduced audiences to a bold new group of characters, welcomed familiar faces, and expanded the ‘Star Trek’ universe in exciting new ways. We’re grateful to Alex Kurtzman, Noga Landau, Gaia Violo, and the entire cast and crew who pushed storytelling boundaries in the spirit of Gene Roddenberry’s vision. We look forward to sharing the upcoming second and final season with everyone, and continuing to celebrate the cast, crew, and all that was accomplished with this series.”

The series finale of season 2 aired on March 12, and production wrapped up on the second season. A sequel to Star Trek Discovery, Starfleet Academy found critical success, but this doesn’t appear to have translated into commercial success. It appears that the five-year mission will only be two, as one Star Trek show comes to another end.
