Creator Mike McMahan shares which Star Trek characters he wants to see in Star Trek: Lower Decks. As a part of executive producer Alex Kurtzman's extended Star Trek Universe, Lower Decks premiered on August 6, 2020, on Paramount+. It is helmed by McMahan , who himself is an avid Star Trek fan. Star Trek: Lower Decks is currently on season 3, releasing episodes weekly every Thursday on the streaming platform, and was renewed earlier this year for season 4.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Star Trek: Lower Decks is the franchise’s first animated series since Star Trek: The Animated Series ended in 1974, and takes a different approach than the franchise's other series. Instead of exploring new worlds on the Enterprise, Lower Decks follows ensigns from one of Starfleet's least important vessels, the USS Cerritos.
Gosh, I would love to work with Geordi and Data . I’m a huge fan of [Star Trek: Enterprise], and I would love to work with as much of that cast as possible. I’ve been trying to figure out a respectful, cool, funny, surprising way to celebrate that show with Lower Decks and, you know, we’ve had 30 episodes. We haven’t gotten there yet. But I’ve spent so much time with Star Trek as part of my family in a way, like watching it when I was a kid.
How Lower Decks Honors Classic Star Trek The Star Trek fanbase has been a loyal and dedicated presence since Star Trek: The Original Series first aired in the 1960s, so the unorthodox and sometimes raunchy approach Star Trek: Lower Decks takes to the universe might seem like a huge risk. Yet, McMahan and his team have so far avoided any serious missteps by ensuring the world is meticulously detailed.
McMahan's dream of working with every Star Trek character might be slightly out of reach, but already Star Trek: Lower Decks is expanding far past his original idea. In addition to season 3's exciting Star Trek: Deep Space Nine crossover, Newsome and Quaid's characters will be making their live-action franchise debuts in a Star Trek: Strange New Worlds crossover. With that in mind, it's possible that McMahan may someday see more franchise icons on Star Trek: Lower Decks.
I was late to this show, but man am I a massive fan now!
Oh man a Rutherford-LaForge meeting would be EPIC. Rutherford would fanboy SO HARD.
