TV show description:
An animated sci-fi comedy series, Star Trek: Lower Decks is the latest TV show in the franchise based on the original Star Trek series created by Gene Roddenberry.
The series focuses on the support crew that serves on one of Starfleet’s least important ships, the U.S.S. Cerritos, in the year 2380. Ensigns include irreverent Beckett Mariner (Newsome), rule-following Brad Boimler (Quaid), medical assistant D’Vana Tendi (Wells), and Sam Rutherford (Cordero), who’s adjusting to a cyborg implant. They have to keep up with their duties and their social lives, often while the ship is being rocked by a multitude of sci-fi anomalies.
The bridge crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos includes Captain Carol Freeman (Lewis), First Officer Jack Ransom (O’Connell), Bajoran Lieutenant Shaxs (Tatasciore), and Doctor T’Ana (Vigman).
