MODERATORS
I have to admit I had very low hopes for Lower Decks after that first teaser featuring a drunk Mariner being reckless with a bat'leth. It looked like it was going to be just another "adult cartoon" cash-in like the dozens on Netflix. Very happy that my initial impression was totally wrong.
Lower Decks was an effective Star Trek show as well as an effective comedy. While I also wouldn't trust this idea with just anyone, as long as there are people working on it who understand why Star Trek is important and how the themes are more important than being dismissive, I welcome another comfy optimistic comedy about a better world.
Totally agree.
I'll watch whatever Tawny Newsome does next. Lower Decks earned a ton of goodwill. It was a breath of fresh air.
