Paramount+ has unveiled the official trailer for the first – and final – season of its animated Star Trek: Lower Decks. The spin-off series opens with two episodes on Thursday, October 24 in the United States and internationally. Following the premiere, new installments of the 10-episode season will drop every Thursday leading up to the series finale on Thursday, December 19.
The logline: The crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos is tasked with closing “space potholes” – subspace rifts that are causing chaos in the Alpha Quadrant. Pothole duty would be easy for Junior Officers Mariner, Boimler, Tendi and Rutherford…if they didn’t also have to deal with an Orion war, furious Klingons, diplomatic catastrophes, murder mysteries and scariest of all: their own career aspirations. This upcoming season on Paramount+ is a celebration of this underdog crew who are dangerously close to being promoted out of the lower decks and into strange new Starfleet roles.
