Well hell.

Dammit. This will leave SNW as the only Trek series? I like SNW a lot but two series would be nice given how short seasons are nowadays.
Prodigy soldiers on for now, and Starfleet Academy is in pre-production, set to start filming this summer.
Paramount doesn’t even want Prodigy on their own streaming service, I have no idea what they’re doing with the franchise…
That’s sad. While I didn’t enjoy every aspect of it, I quite enjoyed it overall. I’m happy to hear season 3 isn’t supposed to be the last for SNW though.
I really enjoyed the live action cameos the two cast members did on SNW. Hopefully there will be more Trek work for them.
As disappointing as it is to see it end, 5 seasons is a decent run, and I’d rather it end before they “jump the shark” or just fizzle out.
I enthusiastically disagree. Lower Decks needs to boldly go and jump the shark more than traveling back in time to save a whale or talking to an old microwave that became a god.
Lower Decks is the kind of show that needs to cut to black for the last time right as cool Boimler on water skis is approaching a shark.
