Star Trek: Lower Decks – Season Five [2024] on Paramount+

Star Trek: Lower Decks - Season Five [2024] on Paramount+

Lower Decks final season, and especially its 2-part finale, are peak Star Trek. From the easter eggs to the always aspirational storylines. I will miss this show.


Previous season of this show brought their animated A Game. Last season was about our misfits being promoted. Season three was all about Trek Lore, and the second season expanded the universe where no Trek has ever gone.

However, this season is a love letter to all those that came before it, live action included. The show’s maturity is not a question here. This season feels like a “coming of age” of sort for our beloved characters. In addition to giving them what they wanted from the beginning, we get to see them enjoy the fruits of their labors, while still enjoying it.

In fact, this is a show that doesn’t take itself seriously, while taking its viewer very seriously. It’s a perfect balance: a “Star Trek” comedy series that loves “Star Trek” so much that it can’t help but be “Star Trek” even when it’s poking fun at “Star Trek.

It’s best quality? It’s smart writing. 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 development. The show fires on all cylinders (or phasers?) to deliver a solid conclusion to the adventures of the USS Cerritos and its crew. And we’re here for it!

Thank you for five amazing seasons, can’t wait to see what comes next for Star Trek.
