Coming Attractions (?): Star Trek: Lower Decks (2020)

The 4th Star Trek series coming to CBS All Access is the first animated series for the streaming service.

Star Trek: Lower Decks is a comedy series from Alex Kurtzman (one of the folks behind the recent Trek movie series) and Mike McMahan (Rick & Morty) that employs the Titmouse animation house, which also works on Rick & Morty and other current animated series, using the same CalArts style so trendy in cable animation these days.

Check out this sample:



The voice cast includes toon vet Fred Tatasciore, plus Jerry O'Connell (ex-Sliders, Crossing Jordan, My Secret Identity) and Dawnn Lewis (Doc McStuffins, ex-A Different World). The 10 episode 1st season begins dropping on CBS All Access on August 6. Trust me. This ain't your parents' Trek.
