As this is an unannounced Star Trek series, not many details are currently known. Our first indication of this new series comes from the USPTO – United States Patent and Trademark Office. The filing details clearly list “a multimedia series featuring animation distributed via various platforms”. Additionally, another source is a casting website. This site is specifically requesting young actors and actresses for a YouTube Short Series. So it’s possible this could air on the Nick Jr. YouTube channel.

It seems Star Trek: Starfleet Scouts will be something like Disney+ and Lucasfilm’s Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures. This Star Wars series originally started as six shorts on YouTube before it gained a full season order. It has been an excellent success for Disney+, with two full 20+ episode seasons released and a third in production.

Based on casting information, the new animated series will focus on three 8-9-year-old friends as they go to school on an earth-like planet. The series will follow their adventures as they train to become future Starfleet explorers. This information seems like a step before Starfleet Academy. The characters of Starfleet Scouts are described as “Cool, funny, heroic, and authentic”.

I feel like the first five episodes will be “I’m crying because I dropped a cookie”, and then suddenly the Breen or something blow up half the Federation and crap gets real.

I feel like the premise would be much more interesting if we substitute a planet for growing up in a starship and what the heck the children do in a red alert.
