I'd watch a series with a captain that bullshits themselves through. Not a stupid captain, the opposite: every intelligent, but heavily lacking knowledge. So they have to navigate smartly through every interaction and fake it until they make it.

The captains shown in Star Trek wouldn't even need to be knowledgeable of all of these weird space phenomena. They have their science officers and general advisors they can ask "What are our options". They're just good managers, essentially

Also bonus points if the captain actually improves the situation via their lack of training.

For example encountering a race who insults one of their crew, normal starfleet captain would brush it off but fake starfleet captain challenges them to a fist fight.

Turns out the aliens greatly respect such actions and starts off first contact with a gesture of equal respect.

They asked me how well I understood theoretical physics.

I said I had a theoretical degree in physics.

They said welcome aboard.
