Well hell.

Replaced with Star Trek Upper Decks?
Yeah, they’re technically not even lower decks anymore since season 4.
Could you imagine if that is the long con here? I’d love that.
Awww i love lower decks!
@billmason @startrek nooooooooooooooooooo
I really enjoyed the live action cameos the two cast members did on SNW. Hopefully there will be more Trek work for them.
@billmason @startrek @reddig33 buy and hold onto your blu rays.
As disappointing as it is to see it end, 5 seasons is a decent run, and I’d rather it end before they “jump the shark” or just fizzle out.
Agreed, even as a huge fan of LD I could personally sense it being more difficult to write more stories for our lowly stalwarts of Starfleet in season 4. Better to be able to end still chanting “Lower Decks! Lower Decks! Lower Decks!”
I enthusiastically disagree. Lower Decks needs to boldly go and jump the shark more than traveling back in time to save a whale or talking to an old microwave that became a god.
Lower Decks is the kind of show that needs to cut to black for the last time right as cool Boimler on water skis is approaching a shark.
I don’t know. We only got like 10 x 25 minutes episodes per season. That’s not a lot of content.
Boo!
Oh no.
Edit: In case I’m coming across sarcastic, I’m not. I loved LD probably the most of the new batch of Star Trek shows. It was just a joy to watch.
Well looks like I’ll be filling unemployment 🖖 🤣
Meanwhile, the adventures continue for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which has been renewed for season 4.
At least there’s that.
It’s still surprising that Lower Decks ends so soon. It’s well received and should be reasonably cheap to produce. Why would they axe it?
Pretty gutted at this news, but as others have pointed out, this move may cement LD as a classic without outstaying their welcome. And hopefully there is a desire for more animated Trek now
Lower decks live action series? Pretty please?
It’s Marin-over.
That’s sad. While I didn’t enjoy every aspect of it, I quite enjoyed it overall. I’m happy to hear season 3 isn’t supposed to be the last for SNW though.
@billmason @startrek Such a shame. ☹️
