Fifth and final.
At least this makes me feel a bit better about #LowerDecks having ended. I don't mean that in a spiteful way, but that "5 short seasons" is the new lifespan, and it got a full life under that lousy new paradigm.
Please understand: it's great that it's less pressure on the folks on both sides of the camera, but as an audience member, it's a mixed bag. Some shows struggled to fill 20+ episodes a year leading to major quality dips (#TheFlash, among many others), but a #StarTrek series... there's so many interesting ideas to explore... trying to imagine TNG and DS9 with just 50 episodes each... maybe Voyager could have used a few less, but if it meant losing the episode where Earth dinosaurs left earth on a generational ship... I can't risk that. (What an awesome, risky idea... this should have been a massive discovery for mankind, but it was just another Tuesday in the Delta Quadrant. :P)
Anyway...
EDIT: Just learned the 5th season is only 6 episodes long...
