Amazon Prime Video has assimilated another Star Trek show, becoming the new home for animated spin-off Lower Decks. The show will beam down to the UK, along with Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Japan and India, on January 22 2021.
Developed by Emmy Award-winner Mike McMahan (responsible for Rick and Morty), Star Trek: Lower Decks focuses on the support crew serving on one of Starfleet’s least important ships, the USS Cerritos, in 2380.
Ensigns Mariner, Boimler, Rutherford and Tendi 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 Starfleet crew residing in the lower decks of the starship, includes Ensign Beckett Mariner, voiced by Tawny Newsome, Ensign Brad Boimler, voiced by Jack Quaid, Ensign Tendi, voiced by Noël Wells and Ensign Rutherford, voiced by Eugene Cordero.
Providing the voices for the ship’s bridge crew are Dawnn Lewis, Jerry O’Connell, Fred Tatasciore and Gillian Vigman.
All ten episodes of season one will be available to binge from the January airdate.

Paramount is banking on a new franchise with Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves, and may well get lucky. Imaginative and entertaining, this all-ages wannabe epic rolls a 20. An adaptation of the cult board game, the movie stars Chris Pine and Michelle Rodriguez as lovable rogues who find themselves questing after an ancient artefact. Imagine…
Sci-fi dino actioner 65 snaps at the heels of the Jurassic World franchise, like a feisty Compsognathus taking on a behemothic Bronti. Don’t go expecting a convoluted franchise wannabe though. This is a pacy, pulpy romp with a high concept premise. Interstellar trucker Mills (played by Adam Driver) crash lands on a prehistoric planet, his…
