"Star Trek: Lower Decks" focuses on the support crew serving on one of Starfleet's least important ships, the USS Cerritos, in 2380. Ensigns Mariner, Boimler, Rutherford and Tendi must keep up with their duties and their social lives, often while the ship is being rocked by a multitude of sci-fi anomalies. The ship's bridge crew includes Captain Carol Freeman, Commander Jack Ransom, Lieutenant Shaxs and Doctor T'Ana. This is the second animated spin-off in the franchise after 1973-74's "Star Trek: The Animated Series," but has a decidedly more adult tone and humor.

Although Lower Decks won’t get to live as long and prosper as much as we’d like, we’re just happy to see this show end on what looks like a high.  Go to Full Review Rick Bentley KGET-TV (Bakersfield, CA) 03/31/2025

This series finds that sweet spot exactly and boldly goes where few animation efforts have gone before. Go to Full Review Callie Hanna FandomWire 11/29/2024

But the truest and most surprising form of intelligence in Star Trek Lower Decks comes not from finding a logical path through sci-fi technical jargon, but rather its character writing. Go to Full Review Rachel Hulshult Screen Rant 10/25/2024

Star Trek: Lower Decks season 5 fires on all cylinders (or phasers?) to deliver a solid conclusion to the adventures of the USS Cerritos and its crew. Go to Full Review Josh Bell Tom's Guide 10/24/2024
It's a shame that Paramount Plus has decided to end Lower Decks now, because it's clearly still in its prime, telling clever, exciting stories that are steeped in Star Trek continuity, with rewarding character development and consistently funny jokes.

S K @sksksksk Feb 16 I understand that the characters arcs are completing but still wish there was so much more! See more Richard Q @Richard82 Jan 27 You can tell that they were slowly starting to run out of ideas for this show, but they still managed to provide a strong finish. See more Christine K. @sci-fi-equestrian Jan 16 Sad they stopped after 5 seasons this show is amazing See more Josh J @RT99444267 Aug 15 The show is alright. I'm debating if it was worth watching or not. At least with this show I can see why people liked it. I can also understand why people wouldn't like it. I know some people that might enjoy it. Most of the people I know that like Star Trek I would not recommend watch it though. The strongest thing this show has going for it in my opinion is nostalgia pulls for an old trekkie. Nostalgia is great, but sometimes leaving characters where they were last in their story is best. Some fun moments, but not as memorable is the older shows. See more Ronald M @RT70191555 04/11/2025 The best Star Trek series since the TNG/DS9/VOY era. See more gina v @RT63316104 03/23/2025 This is my daughter’s and my favourite show of all time!! We watch it eagerly every weekend and absolutely adore the characters and season. Such great writing and lots of humour and wit between characters. Love love love this show! See more Read all reviews
