Line 157:
* On ''[[3rd Rock from the Sun]]'', Sally was next in command after Dick. In one episode, both Dick and Sally were incapacitated and Tommy assumed the role of High Commander (with only Harry left to command).
* ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]'' has had several promotions by death of senior officers, including Major Sheppard becoming the military commander of the expedition, and Dr. Keller becoming the chief medical officer.
** It's not stated in the series itself, but Shepard would have needed several of these in his backstory or he would have been too young for his ''starting'' rank.
* In the prelude of ''[[Firefly]]'', Malcolm Reynolds, a sergeant, ends up in command of all the ground forces in the Battle of Serenity Valley. When one of his men says they need an officer's authorization to get air support, he tears a patch off a dead lieutenant and hands it to the trooper, congratulating him on his promotion.
* By the beginning of season five, in the episode "Holoship", [[Red Dwarf]]'s Rimmer states that he has been in command of Red Dwarf since Lister was revived.
