Yeah, I'd definitely watch that, my point is just that it doesn't really feel like that would be Lower Decks anymore, that feels like a new show ("Star Trek: Middle Management"?). Who knows, if there's enough enthusiasm for Lower Decks, maybe we'll get a follow up that's like what you're describing, or maybe Mariner and friends having misadventures on their first command.
And don't get me wrong, they definitely could keep going with this show as-is for a while longer. But it feels like eventually this is going to stop being, "the untold stories from Starfleets low-ranking support crew," and just be, "TNG but irreverent." Which is also fun, but also a different show (in fact I think that's called The Orville).
Fair. I hope, that they replace LD with something as good. The best Trek we had in a long time, besides maybe SNW. And with the other already announced future star trek shows n films not sounding as exciting to me, I really hope we get something new worthwhile
