Much of season 1 of Picard is spent on Rios' ship. He's not a part of Starfleet at that point, nor is Picard, Raffi, or Seven. We see them go to that club/casino or whatever it was where the pretended to be some kind of criminals.
I just saw the Billy Campbell episode of TNG where he's a Han Solo like character with his own ship hopping around the universe.
There's that other TNG episode about that soldier they capture. I forget his name, but he was enhanced. Really strong and skilled. Ends up he was in some kinda war on a planet where there's a few more like him.
It's really cool when you get to see stuff outside The Federation. I'd love to see a show about something that focused on those things and people not in Starfleet. Starfleet can still pop up, but not the focus. It would be something new for the franchise.

Hear, hear!
Come to think of it, on Deep Space Nine, Quark wasn't a member of Starfleet, but all the stuff going on with him held the interest. It can be done.

I was a loyal viewer of TNG, but didn't catch the other shows in the 90s. Been dabbling since Pluto has not 1, but 2 Star Trek channels now. Though The Federation is a major presence, I see your point. It wasn't just The Federation. |

I'd love to see an episode of new Trek dedicated to investigating the disappearance of heterosexual white males in the Star Trek universe. Picard - straight, white, male. Pike - straight, white, male.
What is there 1 other current live-action show? You can't handle 1 captain not being a white guy?

I’d like to see an episode about what happens on a distant planet when the Enterprise finally leaves after making things even worse.  |

DS9 had plenty of material not focused on Starfleet, with Kira Odo & Quark being separate from Starfleet and Bajor not being a member of the UFP. There was also Jake who decided he didn't to join Starfleet.
Still more material would be interesting to watch.

I enjoyed all those characters on the old shows. Read my post "heterosexual white males in the Star Trek universe". The current universe. Regroup and come back at me amigo. I named current straight white male captains. This was your response:

I watched the first half of Prodigy and that show has non Starfleet characters and takes place outside of Federation space, although they're on a Starfleet vessel and learning about Starfleet from Hologram Janeway. So another example of a Trek show not focused on Starfleet, hell there isn't a single Human main character on the show.

I mean something completely outside of The Federation. Not Deep Space Nine, not on a Starfleet ship but about non-Starfleet characters.

I like Prodigy well enough, it did have a couple of early bad eps, but improved as it went. I didn't have trouble getting into Trek cartoons - nor Star Wars cartoons - all the Trek elements are there and the animation format works better for making alien creatures and locations.
I don't imagine there'd be Trek completely outside of the Federation, I don't imagine anyone would make a show or movie completely removed from it.

Season 1 of Picard was a good example of that. |
