This Star Trek: Lower Decks review contains spoilers for Season 2, Episode 2.
Star Trek: Lower Decks Season 2 Episode 2
At this point, asking whether or not Lower Decks is “real Star Trek” is nuts. Not only does the series capture the warm and fuzzy Tng-vibe nearly perfectly, it also talks about the meaning of Star Trek, quite a bit. In the Season 2 debut, Lower Decks examined the old Tos trope of a mortal suddenly having “god-like” powers, and looked at what that meant from at least three different ways, in three different storylines. But this week, Lower Decks is being a bit tricker. If we think of each episode of this series as like a treatise on the nature of a certain Star Trek concept, “Kayshon, His Eyes Open,” was all about competing definitions of what it means to be good at your job in Starfleet. And sometimes, when that happens, you end-up meeting your double.
