10/10 Reviews Star Trek: Lower Decks Lower Decks Series Finale Review: One Perfect Ending and One Big Mistake
The Lower Decks series finale stuck the landing hard. Ransom gets the chair, Boimler and Mariner share a job, Starbase 80 finally matters, and the only thing I'd take back is Rutherford's eye.

8/10 Reviews Star Trek: Lower Decks Lower Decks Review: A Farewell to Farms Is the Best Klingon Episode Yet
A Farewell to Farms pushes the main cast into the back seat and spends its time on Klingon ritual, bloodwine and a planet of food critics. It's probably the better episode of the season.

8.5/10 Reviews Star Trek: Lower Decks Lower Decks Caves Review: A Bottle Episode Where Every Planet Has the Same Cave
Season 4 Episode 8 traps the lower deckers in a cave with carnivorous moss and makes them trade cave stories to get out. It's a bottle episode, a joke about Paramount's old cave set, and a callback to the very first episode.
