Greetings, Crew!
I'm doing the happy dance over here, and you know why? The premier date for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has been announced! Yah, I know that I sound like a broken record, but I'm CRAZY EXCITED about this one. Let's just way that this year we'll have a great reason to say "May the Fifth be with you". Personal goal on this one: an in-person premiere party!
More news came out yesterday, too. Some of this is not new, but just to get it all in one place:
- Even before it premieres, Strange New Worlds has been renewed for a second season. After the premiere, new episodes will drop weekly on Thursdays.
- Star Trek: Discovery has been renewed for a fifth season. Season four of Star Trek: Discovery returns with new episodes on Thursday, Feb. 10
- Season two of Star Trek: Picard will premiere on Thursday, March 3. Following the premiere, new episodes will drop weekly on Thursdays. Star Trek: Picard is currently in production on a third season.
- Star Trek: Lower Decks will return in summer 2022 with a 10-episode-long third season. Star Trek: Lower Decks has also been renewed for a 10-episode-long fourth season.
- Season one of Star Trek: Prodigy returned on Thursday, Jan. 6 with episode six. The remaining episodes of season one’s first half will be available to stream weekly on Thursdays, with episode 10 available to stream on Thursday, Feb. 3. The additional 10-episode-long second half of season one will be available later in 2022.
Bottom line: It doesn't look like there's a break for quite some time in the new Star Trek weekly offerings (rubs hands together with an evil grin).
See you around the Galaxy!
Mary
