I wasn't expecting to love Lower Decks so much, knew I'd enjoy it but it really is incredible. Star Trek has always had a little sprinkling of goofiness but LD turns it up to 11!

The crossover episode is amazing too, didn't realise how much the animators based the characters on the voice actors.

I forget which season it's in, but LD has one of my favourite tidbits of worldbuilding in all of ST. In the episode where they are goofing on the TOS movies, there is a scene where Kayshon busts through a door and shouts "Temba!" before shooting a bad guy. Thereby establishing that the Tamarian "Temba, his arms wide" not only means "take this" in the sense of sharing/offering something to someone, but also means "Take this!" in the sense of an exclamation when attacking someone.
