Lower Decks pre-launch speculation.
Starfleet is preparing to become animated once again in the new CBS All Access series Star Trek: Lower Decks. Mike McMahan, writer and producer of the Cartoon Network animated comedy series Rick and Morty and creator of the Hulu animated series Solar Opposites, is introducing us to the people who really make a starship run. Apart from two 2019 installments of Short Treks—“Ephraim and Dot” and “The Girl Who Made the Stars”—Lower Decks marks the first “cartoon” incarnation of the franchise since Star Trek: The Animated Series (1973–74) and follows the support crew serving on one of Starfleet’s least important ships, the USS Cerritos, in the year 2380.
In this premiere episode of Interphase, Trek.fm’s new Star Trek Universe podcast, host C Bryan Jones is joined by Hayley Stoddart, Zachary Fruhling, and Chris Chaplin to discuss our expectations, whether Star Trek is the right platform for comedy, our thoughts on the crew and the ship, and whether a fractured fandom can—or should—be reunited.
