Below Deck With Lower Decks — Star Trek: The Motion Picture

This week on Star Trek: Lower Decks, “Crisis Point” pulls out and focuses on some of Trek’s greatest ongoing tropes. Not only is this 30 minutes of advocating for mental health (Therapy for everyone! Deanna Troi would be proud), there’s also somehow time for holodeck misadventures, a visit from (Voyager's) Leonardo Da Vinci, enough lens flair to satiate even J.J. Abrams himself, and a saucer crash-landing that would make the crew of the Enterprise-D seethe with jealousy.

But perhaps most impressive was this gorgeous homage to the cinematography from Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Returning to the Cerritos. Captain Freeman and her crew approach the ship in loving tribute to Captain Kirk’s Enterprise. Check out the comparison shots below!
