Overview

• Season 3 premiered July 17 on Paramount+ with a two-episode launch followed by eight weekly installments through September.
• The season continues its genre-hopping, episodic storytelling style that mirrors The Original Series’ format.
• Paramount+ confirmed after June layoffs that the show will conclude with a condensed fifth season of six episodes.
• Co-showrunner Akiva Goldsman said the final arc is designed to carry the narrative up to James T. Kirk’s first day commanding the Enterprise.
• Season 4 is already filming, giving the creators time to craft a cohesive, canon-aligned conclusion rather than face an abrupt cancellation.
