There's drama and mystery ahead in the live action Star Trek world with scary space phenomenon and alternate reality skipping to take us through an adventure and keep us on the edge of our seats. Before then, however, our next dose of the Star Trek world has kicked off with something a little lighter as we rejoin the Lower Decks of the Cerritos!
After a long, long wait, we finally got our first (proper) look at Mike McMahon's Lower Decks when it arrived on Amazon Prime Video internationally. The comedy series focusing on the minor crew members of the USS Cerritos ended with the group of friends broke apart, with Boimler being promoted and reassigned to the USS Titan.
After a long, long wait Lower Decks is now finally available on Amazon Prime! Focusing on the least important officers on one of Starfleet's most unremarkable ships, Lower Decks is an animated comedy that follows on the Next Generation era. Set on board the USS Cerritos, a Second Contact ship, the series stars Tawny Newsome as insubordinate Mariner; Jack Quad as the underachiever Boimler; Eugene Cordero as security officer Rutherford and Noël Wells as the oiverly excited about everything Ensign Tendi. Having launched in the US on CBS: All Access last year, Lower Decks was exclusive to the CBS streaming service with no UK outlet scheduled. Initial plans for the Star Trek Universe release schedule was to have Picard start the year, Discovery in the summer and finish off with some light hearted Lower Decks fun. The COVID pandemic had other ideas, however, […]
Following a group of officers with the worst assignment on board a less than interesting ship, Lower Decks is the latest new instalment to the growing Star Trek Universe and the first ever comedy-centric show to enter the Star Trek world. With production, cast and crew announced, the first season trailer was recently released to the world! First Trailer for Lower Decks With a global pandemic causing turmoil in the production world and many shows pushed back due to difficulties in completing them, Discovery's third season looks to be taking a back seat as they finish off post-production score. Meanwhile, by sheer accident, Lower Decks is next in line for release and it might just be the kind of feelgood show the world needs right now! Based on board the USS Ceritos, a ship who's mission revolves around "second contact", […]
At Star Trek Las Vegas we learned a lot more about the new visions for Star Trek and ahead of our venture towards Destination Star Trek in Birmingham, we're taking a look at what we know so far from the Mega-Event in the US. One of the key takeaways from the panel, and one thing that McMahon has been clear on from the first announcement of the project, is that the show may be a comedy but it will always – first and foremost – be about the Star Trek vision. "It was really important to me that even though we are a comedy, the comedy does not come from punching down on Trek, or making fun of tropes.” He explained, “It feels like every episode is a Star Trek episode, but we are focusing on people in the ship […]
Out of all the announcements for future Star Trek shows, one of the most unusual and surprising was Lower Decks; the animated comedy series written by Rock & Morty's Mike McMahon. Between San Diego Comic Con and Star Trek Las Vegas, creator Mike McMahon used the stage to tell the world exactly what the show based aboard the California Class USS Cerritos would be about. "The speciality of the Cerritos is Second Contact, that is their gig." He explained at STLV, "First Contact is super important, really dangerous. You don’t want to set off any wars, you don’t want to ruin any lives. Second contact, you are showing up to the planet, you are finding all the good places to eat, you setting up the communications stuff..." Expanding more on the concept, McMahon added, "I wanted to explore how after […]
