One of the early pitches for Star Trek: The Next Generation included bits and pieces we would later see in Voyager, Discovery and the unmade far-future pitch Federation, as well as other SF settings. A new ship (called the Odyssey), an uncertain young crew, a commanding officer dying early on and a young officer taking over, the late captain becoming a holographic adviser...
As well as the grumpy Klingon officer who did make it in, albeit for different starting reasons... and a character defined by dealing with being too attractive to be taken seriously, which I’m glad didn’t make the cut.
