They did lower decks wrong when they cancelled it.

MODERATORS
This show is just so good.
Stupid and juvenile, yes, but it’s a love letter to fans in a way that only SNW comes close to being.
I'd argue that sometime around late season 2, it went beyond being a mere "love letter" and just became a masterpiece of its own. I feel like seasons 3 and 4 contain episodes that are in the top tiers of any Trek. The only episode I think that can be considered among the worst in the franchise is "A Mathematically Perfect Redemption". For the rest of them, though, I feel like they develop relationships very well in a way that rivals even DS9.
The opening scene of episode 1 hooked me.
And every reference for the next twenty minutes made sure I stayed.
I love Boimler's captains log.
The Star Trek movie vibes are strong with this one.
Indeed - for those who may not be aware, Lower Decks season posters tend to be based on the corresponding film.
We're now up to Star Trek V.
Hell yeah baby
This makes me want a Lower Decks movie.
I feel like at least one plot thread of that hypothetical film needs to involve Rutherford remembering that his family exists and then dealing with being different and having no memories.
Specifically, I imagine that with his implant, he's become everything his parents wanted him to be, and that horrifies him, as his parents almost seem happy their old son is dead.
Kind of makes me wish they’d done a different season of each era using the same characters (maroon uniform, TNG, ENT, TOS, DSC).
This is very stupid in the best possible way
