Star Trek: Lower Decks – The Main Cast Ranked By Likability – Screen Rant

Lower Decks is a whole new kind of Star Trek series - and these are the characters in it that fans like most... and least.

CBS All Access'sStar Trek: Lower Decksis one of the most uniqueStar Trekshows in the franchise's history. The animated show is centered on the lower deck crew of the USSCerritos, rather than the bridge crew that mostStar Trekshows focus on, This gives the show a loose and fun feel that pairs great with its comedic style.

The heart of the show is its cast, which is primarily focused on four of the lower deck crew, along with supporting characters from the bridge. All of these characters are tons of fun and incredibly charming, but that doesn't mean that some of them aren't superior to others.

Ransom is the first officer of the Cerritos, and he's pretty one-dimensional when it comes down to it. That doesn't mean that he isn't good at his job, however. He cares deeply about the Cerritos, and wants to see it succeed in all of its missions. And while he workswell with Captain Freeman, his relationship with some of the crew is pretty negative. He and Mariner are constantly fighting pretty much any time they speak, causing plenty of trouble throughout the ship. Ransom isn't a highlight of the Cerritos crew, but he isn't awful either.

Captain Freeman is an interesting one. She tries herhardest to be as best of a captain as she can be to the Cerritos, but her less thanperfect crew and the ship's low standing in Starfleet makes her one of the most unimportant captains there is. Any mission that the Cerritos gets is one that nobody else wants, much to the chagrin of Freeman. Nevertheless, she persists, even with her daughter Mariner fighting her order with every ounce of her strength. The two eventually figure their problems with one another out, even if it does take them some time.

Rutherford is a very nice guy, and that's about as detailed as you can get about him. He's sort of a blank slate, but he's always happy to go along with whatever plan his friends have cooked up in any given episode. Rutherford aims to please everyone as much as he can, and with the help of his implant, he's incredibly gifted with everything that he attempts to pick up. He might not be the most interesting member of the crew, but nevertheless, he's a great addition to the team.
