Lower Decks: Staying True To Trek

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 […]

Discovery’s First Season to Relaunch on Channel 4 Next Year.

For anyone who doesn't have Netflix (which you should, theres a lot of good stuff there!), Channel 4 has announced they've gained the rights for Discovery on regular TV. Just announced, the deal will see Channel 4 secure two of CBS' properties as they secure the regular television rights for Matt LeBlanc's new show 'Man With a Plan' and All Access show Star Trek Discovery. Both will air on their E4 Channel from next year. You can read the full announcement at Channel 4. The news may seem a little 'secondary' in the announcement to Man With a Plan, it's somewhat understandable; despite some early speculation, it does seem clear that Discovery won't be moving away from Netflix, who has the 'first run' rights. The deal simply means that the show will have a home outwith streaming and will launch on […]

Going Below: The Cast of Lower Decks

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 […]
