Star Trek: Lower Decks is gearing up for its fifth and final season. While the show’s ending is making a lot of fans sad, there are a few bright spots to note. In a world where many streaming shows are getting cancellations after only one or two seasons—sometimes before people can even watch them—this show got a few seasons. And, instead of any weird cliffhangers or unresolved plots, there will be finality to all the characters’ stories. We get a taste of what to expect in the trailer for Star Trek: Lower Decks.
This animated series is such a delight and fans will miss it for sure. Check out this brief synopsis for Star Trek: Lower Decks to go along with the trailer:
In season five of Star Trek: Lower Decks, 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.
What Is the Premiere Date for Star Trek: Lower Decks Season Five?
The fifth and final season will premiere on Paramount+ with two episodes on October 24. Then, new episodes of the 10 episode season will drop every Thursday leading up to the series finale on December 19.
