Star Trek: Short Treks is an American anthology television series created by Bryan Fuller and Alex Kurtzman for the streaming service CBS All Access (later rebranded as Paramount+). Originating as a companion series to Star Trek: Discovery, it consists of several shorts that use settings and characters from Discovery and other Star Trek series. The shorts are around 10 to 20 minutes long.
After signing a deal to expand the Star Trek franchise on television, Kurtzman announced Short Treks as the first such project in July 2018. The first four episodes aired from October 2018 to January 2019, between the first and second seasons of Discovery. The shorts were mostly produced by cast and crew members from Discovery, including composer Jeff Russo who provided an updated main title theme and original underscore for the series. Filming took place in Toronto, Canada, on the set of Discovery.
In January 2019, two new animated shorts were revealed, with four additional live action episodes announced in June 2019. The second season of shorts aired from October 2019 to January 2020, between the second season of Discovery and the first season of Star Trek: Picard, with the last short serving as a teaser for the latter series. The animated shorts were created by visual effects house Pixomondo, while a roster of new composers supervised by Michael Giacchino provided the music for the second set of shorts.
The series has received positive reviews, and has been nominated for several awards including a Primetime Emmy Award. Kurtzman has expressed interest in continuing the series, but the producers chose not to begin work on any new shorts.
