This show literally got me to relook at star trek. It's such a good show and if they do end it with season 5, I'll be sad but happy that it existed in the first place. Plus the crossover episode with strange new worlds was awesome, I do wish they had rutherford and tendi as well in that episode.
Another crossover episode with only tendi and Rutherford would be awesome.
I was blown away that the crossover could be so hilarious but still carry such a big intense moment for the Strange New Worlds story.
Yea they nailed the cross over. It's kinda how I decided to watch SNWs. I found out there was a crossover and didn't want to ruin the show so I started watching from season 1. Now I'm hooked on SNWs as well.
That trailer seems pretty insistent that this isn't the end...
I'm almost wondering if they'll spin off a couple of characters into a new Trek. I'd watch the shit out of Rutherford doing crazy engineering stuff on a flagship.
Star Trek: Upper Decker
Star Trek Beyond Deck Five
McMahan has appeared optimistic that there could be a chance of TV movie continuations, but I think the trailer hinting at an afterlife for the show is a tongue in cheek way of rallying fans for yet another "keep our show on the air" campaign 😆
Hopefully we'll get more of these characters just not as lower deckers anymore.
That’s what I’m hoping it hinted at.
Lower decks is done, because those characters will now be bridge officers.
It will technically be the same show, but it will have a name change and start at season 1 again.
Ho early, we can’t let anyone go as long without a promotion as Harry.
Also, we got half of the maincast doing a live action episode without issues, too.
This show came at a perfect time imo. I used to be hooked on Rick & Morty but it has fallen off in recent seasons, and Lower Decks scratches the same itch. Looking forward to S5.
