10 Best Sci-Fi Comedy TV Series You Need To Watch

10. Star Trek: Lower Decks

Star Trek isn't really known for being a comedy franchise. It's not like there aren't comedic episodes throughout each series and funny moments in the movies, but Star Trek has never had a dedicated comedy series as part of its ranks. That was before Star Trek: Lower Decks arrived.

The series focuses on the crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos whose primary mission is Second Contact. It's not as glamorous as First Contact but it's still important. The main characters are Beckett Mariner and the crew of the lower decks. They are the people who do the grunt work while the main crew take the glory.

As the second animated series in the history of Star Trek, Lower Decks was still a big swing. Making it the first Star Trek comedy on top of that was even more risky. While the first season wasn't perfect and there are still kinks to work out, it was still a funny take on the world that had been built throughout the franchise.
