After 27 years, Star Trek legend Avery Brooks made a return to the franchise this week, with an incredible voice cameo in the latest episode of Starfleet Academy. Episode 5 of the new spin-off sees cadet Sam (Kerrice Brooks) set out to discover what happened to Benjamin Sisko (Brooks), the Captain of Deep Space Nine.

At the time of writing, just three days after the premiere of Episode 3, Starfleet Academy has been ousted from the current Paramount+ streaming charts in the U.S. This is made even more damning when considering the lack of brand-new content providing competition for Starfleet Academy.

Whoopi Goldberg explains how a heartfelt conversation with Gene Roddenberry about Uhura’s impact led to her iconic role on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The former TV star celebrated a milestone event for the nonprofit Project Angel Food with stars like Jamie Lee Curtis.
