The thing I enjoy about Lower Decks is that, up until now, the wiki curators who are determined to shoehorn every piece of Star Trek lore into a single coherent universe mostly only had to do bullshit worldbuilding gymnastics to make that work when dealing with the Original Series, a couple of the more egregious Star Trek: Voyager episodes, and some of the novels, and in a pinch they could get away with declaring the novels "secondary canon" – but now Lower Decks is throwing them multiple unhinged curveballs in every single episode, and the wiki articles are getting interesting again.

Hey, we've seen some fantastic animated series lately. If you haven't already, run right now and check out
Arcane
Blue Eye Samurai
Scavengers Reign
Chainsaw Man
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
Tear Along the Dotted Line
Love Death + Robots
Arcane and Blue Eye Samurai compete for the best animated series I've ever seen, of all time, and they're both ongoing. That's wild. What gorgeous animation. Scavengers Reign is a wonderful sci-fi series that's actually original, and I'm sad to say that's a rarity. It shouldn't be! I'll let you discover the rest. Just a reminder that Love Death + Robots is an anthology, and as usually this entails hits and misses. But the hits are SO good.
Other good series that are not groundbreaking or anything in terms of animation (which is generally on purpose: most of them aim to emulate a specific established style, and succeed), but they still get the job done, and are fun to watch:
Castlevania (and Castlevania: Nocturne)
Star Trek: Lower Decks
Invincible
The Legend of Vox Machina
Dragon Age: Absolution
Good stuff!

I really appreciate how likable all of the characters on Lower Decks are. As an 'adult cartoon' they could have easily fallen into the cliche of having everyone be absolutely awful but they avoided that low-hanging fruit entirely.
At some point in the latest episode Ransom said something that was so supportive about Boimler and I thought... You know in another show he would've been a Zapp Brannigan; completely unsufferable, secretly cowardly, ready and willing to abuse his authority. But no. Just like every other one of the senior officers on the Cerritos, he actually cares about his crew and his job.
Even in a half-hour comedy cartoon format, there's just this thread of everyone trying to be the best Starfleet officer they can be and it's just so good.
