I actually haven’t watched PIC or ST:A and I don’t think I will. The tones of the first episodes just don’t vibe with me, but I’m glad others enjoy them. I absolutely love SNW and LD. DISC is okay as an alternate universe starfleet, although I have my issues with certain things (like ship size… Oof)
I already want a more action-oriented dominion war era show, so I could get behind a concurrent medical drama on the front lines, crossover episode once or twice and all that.
I disagree that the main driving force of a medical show is lack of resources, as Grail said, HOUSE, MD is a good example of. Also I have seen a bit of early Grey’s anatomy and I didn’t notice lack of resources. But also as gedfromgont said, a Voyager type show where they’re cut off from starfleet would totally work to keep their resources limited. Make it a medical ship or station, and you’re set! Give them that “year of hell” feeling from Voyager.


I don’t think I’d ever try it, given how the air currents would probably rip a viper to shreds.
But you can’t beat that cool factor.
