And neither will this because…

?

Or think of “Lower Decks” or similar episodes, which explored what life was like for non-senior staff members, which could make for an interesting series.

it makes for an interesting episode, but a whole series based on this? I’m not seeing it.

…it’s only 13 episodes long. I’m still hoping that we’ll at least get different shows every season.

you mean the first season is 13 episodes long, right? So again, would a whole series of “Lower Decks” work?

I’m still hoping that we’ll at least get different shows every season.

Or the senior staff is wiped out in the first 10 minutes and she’s the highest ranking person on board.

that would explain why wasn’t captain for the first few episodes, but why wouldn’t Starfleet either make her the next captain or find someone else to replace the dead captain? (unless this going to be something like Voyager).

Or a wartime situation. Say, the Romulan War. Deep behind enemy lines, etc.

they’ve already said this is not going to be about the Romulan War.

Forgot about that. Could be Romulans still fighting the war after it’s over. Could be anything.
