Lower Decks Final Season: What Do You Hope to See?

[Sumire]

I really, really, really would absolutely love to see Enterprise characters worked in somehow. It would be fun to see them in this animation style. Plus, the likelihood we will ever get Ms. Blalock back in front of the cameras is pretty darn low but vocal recording can even be done from home so that seems somewhat more probable. If we’re going to dream stupendously big dreams, in a perfect world, this Enterprise cameo would show Trip wasn’t killed in a heroic but poorly executed manner in 2161.

I’d love a flash forward as well, specifically to 2383 or beyond so I can see some or all the Prodigy characters in this style of animation too.

Besides desired cameos, I want to see personal growth for Mariner, Boimler, Tendi, Rutherford and T’Lyn in particular. I want to see them stumble in amusing and endearing ways but pick themselves up and keep moving forward. I want them to remain supportive of each other. I want them to explore interesting places and interact with engaging characters.

I especially want, like @Paul755, for the finale to find them voyaging onward together.

Oh, and I’d like some insight and encompassing dogma in regards to the smiling koala.

I can imagine our heroes going their separate ways as they promote up and out of the Cerritos as XOs, CSOs and CEOs on different ships.

 

[F. King Daniel]

The return of William Boimler!

 

[Rhodan]

OK, I must say I would be glad if they did their Mirror Universe episode but considering the many times they used it as a joke already...

 

[Leviathan]

Don't even joke about this. It's not funny.

Good for you, express your opinion!

Torgo's executive powder...they could be made into that too....

 

[TimeIsAPredator]

The return of William Boimler!

Would be a huge pity if they don't get a chance to follow up on his S31 membership.

 

[Oddish]

Would be a huge pity if they don't get a chance to follow up on his S31 membership.

He should join Tom Riker there.

- Something related to Enterprise. The other pre-Disco series have gotten the nod from LD, so its their turn.
- Follow up to William Boimler and Section 31
- What became of the other original Lower Deckers – Lavelle, Ogawa, Taurik, & Ben
- Aliens to see: Gallamites, Terellians, Reptoids, Tyrakheans, Kelpiens, Ktarians, Ocampa, Megans, Beta Annari, Tulians, and Troyans
- The Fleet Museum
- Enterprise-E
- The Defiant (maybe as a Mariner flashback on DS9)
- Something related to Teresa Ramirez and the Mariposas.
- A reference to the USS Protostar
- Wrigley's Pleasure Planet and Ba'ku
- Kalar warrior

Well, I have a feeling it won’t feel like a series finale.

Unless they’ve known since last year it would be the end.

That's a good point. If they had already begun producing season 5 before they got the axe (like DSC), then there probably won't be a whole lot of wrapping up of plotlines or giving characters a good end. They'll just show what they've produced so far, and maybe they'll add something at the end (again, like DSC.)

 

[fireproof78]

The crew warping off to another adventure.

As open ended as possible.

 

[Bad Thoughts]

I don't feel it's fair to make a list knowing the show has been canceled when the season is effectively in the can, but if there is one thing I want to see, it's:

Jake.

It would be nice to know he's ok.

 

[Tuskin38]

I wonder if they ever planned on following up on Section 31 Boimler, or if that was just a gag.

 

[TimeIsAPredator]

I have it. The final scene.

The gang all just promoted and heading off to different ships meet for the last time to reminisce by their old bunks. Just as they're minds are about to wonder off into a montage Boimler picks up a guitar and starts to play a song apt for the moment.


It's been a long road, getting from there to here ......

 

[Anna Yolei]

For me, season 4 was definitely lack a LOT of the MariBoims dynamic. It's not that i didn't enjoy Brutherford (lol) getting to bond or the girls trip, but I also can't blame fans in other places I post at who felt like Mariner's meltdown in 4x06 and/or The Inner Fight could've landed better if she'd gotten said moments with characters we've seen her bonding with.

I have no delusions about them becoming a couple, but their dynamic was one of my favorite parts of the show and I hope we get more of that.

 

[Qonundrum]

They're on a Borg ship and Boimler removes a 6502 processor from a socket by pure chance, and then the entire Cube shuts down. Why he's there, like if nobody else is the backup team to save everyone from being assimilated...?

 

[137th Gebirg]

6502's! I remember those...

 

[Andyliini]

I hope to see it. Season 4 is still not available where I live.

* Harry Kim, demoted back into the Academy
* The faraway future of Discovery season 3
* T'ana accidentally activates the EHM
* An episode focused on Enterprise
* The guys from Prodigy

 

[Oddish]

* Harry Kim, demoted back into the Academy

That's similar to the fate Garrett Wang actually suggested, only he resigns from Starfleet and starts up Admiral Kim's Bar and Grill... I think he was trying to write himself into "Lower Decks".

 

[Tuskin38]

* The guys from Prodigy

Unless there is time travel, that isn't happening. Prodigy is still a couple years ahead of Lower Decks
