For the first time since the 1970s, Star Trek is getting animated. This morning CBS announced they have given a two-season order for Star Trek: Lower Decks, which is being developed by Mike McMahan, who recently won an Emmy for his work on the popular animated series Rick and Morty.

Mike McMahan also wrote the upcoming Harry Mudd-centric Star Trek: Short Treks. A longtime fan, back in 2015 he published the officially licensed Warped: An Engaging Guide to the Never-Aired 8th Season, which arose from @tng_s8 his popular parody Twitter account about an imagined eighth season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I'm getting my Star Trek jones sated by Orville which is nice since nothing after Voyager did the trick. I do love R&M but ANOTHER comedy Star Trek thing? I can only hope that it is good. Official current Trek cannon plus good equals doesn't-exist.
