Starfleet Academy leaps into the future, though there are some familiar faces.

From the original series to Starfleet Academy, and Season 4 of Strange New Worlds when it arrives later this year, Paramount Plus is the best place to watch Star Trek, full stop. I'm old enough to remember when the franchise was scattered across multiple streaming services but now, with the exception of Star Trek: Prodigy, it's all on Paramount Plus.

If you've missed out on Starfleet Academy, now's the time to take advantage of this offer. Aside from a new, younger cast, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy features some familiar faces from Star Trek: Discovery and the return of Star Trek: Voyager's holographic doctor.

Will it take you a month to binge-watch the ten-episode first season? No, but that's where Paramount Plus's vast back-catalogue of Star Trek comes in. You can stream virtually every Trek show and episode ever made, including Star Trek: Lower Decks and the animated version of the original series. Both seasons of Paramount's Halo series are on there too and, for your less sci-fi inclined family members, you've got shows like Sylvester Stallone's Tulsa King and Yellowstone spin-off 1883.

Key features: Nearly every single Star Trek show and movie, including the new Starfleet Academy Show, ready to stream. Paramount Plus also boasts a huge catalog of other shows and films, viewable on a wide variety of devices.

Price history: We've seen Paramount Plus offer a range of deals in the past, but you sometimes have to lock in for a year. $2.99 a month for ad-free Paramount Plus Premium is a real steal (and the ad-supported tier is a good deal too), saving $6 a month and $11 a month for the first two months, respectively.

Consensus: If you're a Trekkie, Paramount Plus is an absolute must-have. From movies to shows, live-action and animated, you'll find hours and hours of Star Trek content on the service. Whether it's old or new Trek you crave, you're absolutely spoilt for choice. There's a wealth of non-sci-fi content too, from 1883 to Tulsa King.
