"It's life, Jim, but not as we know it".
This quote may never have actually been spoken by 'Dr. Spock' in the Star Trek original series, instead made famous by British band The Firm's 1987 song Star Trekkin', but it seems an apt description of the all-new animated CBS All Access series, Star Trek: Lower Decks.
The second animated spin-off series in the sci-fi franchise, this fresh take will have a more adult tone and humour and focus on the support crew of one of Starfleet's least important ships, the USS Cerritos.
Tawny Newsome, Noël Wells, Jack Quaid and Eugene Cordero provide the voices of Ensigns 'Mariner', 'Tendi', 'Boimler' and 'Rutherford', tasked with doing their duties and keeping up with their social lives aboard the starship.
Are you ready to go where no Star Trek series has gone before? Ten cartoon episodes of repairing turbo lifts, fixing warp cores, rounding up troublesome Tribbles and unwanted Away Team missions.
These out-of-this-world launch billboards for the animated comedy series were spied along the Sunset Strip, Ventura Boulevard and Pico Boulevard from July 21 to July 31, 2020.
Fans of the beloved science fiction franchise can also enjoy these Star Trek: Picard billboards, these Star Trek: Discovery billboards and these Star Trek movie reboot billboards.
Most fans will know that the life of a 'redshirt' isn't the safest, so it looks like the exploits of these support staff won't be all Holodeck adventures and drinking Romulan ale.
We're all used to photon torpedoes flying, tractor beams locking on and setting phasers to stun, but now it's time to welcome some futuristic laughs to the United Federation of Planets.
Are you ready to boldly go somewhere new and comedic with Star Trek: Lower Decks? Engage.
