From two-time Emmy® Award winning creator Mike McMahan (“Rick and Morty,” “Solar Opposites”) and executive produced by Alex Kurtzman (“Star Trek: Discovery,” “Star Trek: Picard”), STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS: SEASON ONE is the first animated Star Trek series in almost 50 years.
It focuses on the support crew serving on one of Starfleet’s least important ships, the U.S.S. Cerritos, in 2380. Ensigns Beckett Mariner (Tawny Newsome, Space Force), Ensign Brad Boimler (Jack Quaid, “The Boys”), Ensign Samanthan Rutherford (Eugene Cordero, Kong: Skull Island) and Ensign D’Vana Tendi (Noël Wells, “Master of None”) have to keep up with their duties and their social lives, while the ship is being rocked by a multitude of sci-fi anomalies. The Starfleet characters that comprise the ship’s bridge crew include “Captain Carol Freeman,” voiced by Dawnn Lewis (“The Rich & the Ruthless”); “Commander Jack Ransom,” voiced by Jerry O’Connell (“Billions”); “Lieutenant Shaxs,” voiced by Fred Tatasciore (“American Dad!”); and “Doctor T’Ana,” voiced by Gillian Vigman (“New Girl”).
STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS: SEASON ONE also features notable guest stars, including Paul Scheer (“The League”), Jonathan Frakes (“Star Trek: The Next Generation”), Marina Sirtis (“Star Trek: The Next Generation”), Jack McBrayer (“30 Rock”), Kurtwood Smith (“That 70’s Show”), and more.
