Now, CBS is expanding the Trek franchise beyond the boundaries of CBS All Access. As reported by The LEGO Movie. Story details on the new show are being kept under wraps at this time.

Star Trek: The Animated Series Enterprise

This will actually not be the first time in its history that Nickelodeon has featured Star Trek related programming. From 1985-1990, the cable network ran reruns of Star Trek: The Animated Series, the Filmation-produced animated version of Trek that originally ran from 1973 to 1974, featuring the voice talents of most of the Star Trek: TOS cast. The new kid-friendly Trek animated series is reportedly being eyed as a tent-pole for Nickelodeon as newly arrived president Brian Robbins attempts to reverse a trend of declining ratings for the network.

For Star Trek, the deal with Nickelodeon represents a new avenue through which to connect with younger viewers. Indeed, Trek universe overseer Alex Kurtzman has made it plain that appealing to a more youthful demographic is one of his top priorities as he develops more Trek-related content. With two new animated series and two live-action series in the pipeline, as well as the ongoing adventures of Star Trek: Discovery, there will soon be more than enough different varieties of Star Trek programming to satisfy fans of all ages and knowledge levels.
