Ever wanted to know what life is like for Starfleet’s unsung other guys? Not the red shirts, whose career life expectancy can be counted on a salt vampire’s fingers, but the staff that turns up after the Enterprise has saved the day? That’s where animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks comes in, introducing us to the also-rans for whom the bridge is undiscovered country.
This show is gloriously tongue-in-cheek, while still remaining canon, and has just concluded its run after five well-deserved seasons. That’s fifty episodes of Ensigns Boimler and Mariner and their equally overlooked crewmates getting into all sorts of Star Trek scrapes. Star Trek: Lower Decks is loaded with gags and call-backs; even Q and the Borg Queen get a look in.
From cute, bone-drinking alien lifeforms through to homicide-heavy holodeck simulations, there’s nowhere Lower Decks is afraid to go. The show proved so popular that the pair even time-travelled (in live action) to Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. We interviewed the Lower Decks cast about what they’d miss about it now that it’s over, and it shows how much heart went into Lower Decks
This Paramount Plus offer allows you to binge the whole series for just $2.99 a month for two months, after which time the price rises to $8.99 and $13.99 for the ad-supported and ad-free tiers. You can also watch every other Star Trek movie and show from the original series through to Star Trek: Picard, Starfleet Academy and non-Trek shows and movies like CSI and Tulsa King.
Key features: Almost every single Star Trek series and film can be found on Paramount Plus. From the original series through to Picard to the Section 31 movie, it’s there. You also get access to the whole of Paramount Plus’s catalogue, which includes historical dramas, crime shows and more.
Price history: Paramount Plus previously offered a variety of deals, some yearly, some monthly. At $2.99 a month lets you enjoy a host of Star Trek content without locking yourself in.
Consensus: If you’re a Trekkie, you need Paramount Plus. While Star Trek: Prodigy is in the hands of Netflix, every other Star Trek show, movie and animation can be watched on Paramount Plus. There are also more down-to-earth shows like 1883 and Tulsa King.
