Paramount+ has announced that the fifth and final season of 'Star Trek: Lower Decks' will premiere on October 24, featuring a two-episode launch and weekly releases thereafter, concluding with a series finale on December 19. The new season will see the crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos tackling 'space potholes' while facing challenges like an Orion war and their own career aspirations. Cast members Tawny Newsome, Jack Quaid, Noël Wells, and Jerry O’Connell participated in a panel at San Diego Comic-Con to unveil the teaser trailer, which promises the same humor and adventure fans expect. The series, known for its comedic take on life in Starfleet, has garnered a dedicated following over its four seasons. The announcement was met with disappointment from fans, indicating the show's popularity and impact within the Star Trek franchise. As the crew navigates chaos in the Alpha Quadrant, this season aims to celebrate their journey from junior officers to potential new roles in Starfleet.
