The other shows affected include Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies and Queen of the Universe, which will now be removed from the streamer entirely. <\/p>
A number of shows including Star Trek<\/a>: Prodigy and Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies<\/a> have been cancelled by Paramount Plus<\/a> \u2013 and will now be removed from the streamer entirely.<\/p>\n A spokesperson for the service announced that four programmes \u2013 also including The Game and Queen of the Universe \u2013 had finished their runs and would no longer be available to stream as of a matter of days.<\/p>\n As reported by Variety<\/a>, the statement continued: \u201cWe want to extend our thanks to our tremendously talented cast and crew and our producing partners for their passionate work and dedication on these programs, and we wish them all the best on their future endeavors.\u201d<\/p> The report claims that the decision was \u201cdata-driven\u201d but that no specific data had been provided by the streamer to explain why the shows were being taken off the platform.<\/p>\n Paramount Plus is currently preparing to launch a new version of its offering in the US merging its content with Showtime, with the new service set to debut on Tuesday 27th June.<\/p>\n This is not the first time in recent weeks that a streamer has taken the unusual approach of removing many of its own shows from its library. Back in May, it was revealed that Disney Plus would be taking off a huge number of TV series and films<\/a>, including Willow, Pistol, and The World According to Jeff Goldblum.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n Of the removals, Star Trek: Prodigy is perhaps the biggest surprise given the animated series had previously been renewed for a second run \u2013 which is thought to currently be in post-production and will now need to find a new home.<\/p>\n Meanwhile Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies only ended its first run earlier in June following its April debut, while the second season of Drag competition show Queen of the Universe also launched on the platform just this month.<\/p>\n The Game \u2013 which was a revival of the CW series of the same name \u2013 ran for two seasons on Paramount Plus, airing what will now be its final episode this past February.<\/p>\n \u00a0For more news, interviews and features, visit our Drama<\/a>\u00a0hub, or find something to watch now with our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Streaming Guide<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Take part in\u00a0the Screen Test<\/a>, a project from Radio Times and the Universities of Sussex and Brighton, to explore the role of television and audio in our lives.<\/strong><\/p>\n Try Radio Times magazine today and get 12 issues for only \u00a31 with delivery to your home \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>subscribe now<\/strong><\/a>.
