Fourth, he is accepting from the beginning the idea championed by Pax not to use force for its ends, a notion which he did not buy in the first script. Ecologically, the world has been given a second chance but there are strange peoples, tribes and cities everywhere. Third, he is here a member of a Pax City team, one of many that comb the world from their southwestern location in North America discovering what changes a 150-plus year period has made after a devastating nuclear conflict altered the lives of the planet's peoples.
Second, we start with Hunt in the 22nd century, not in his own time. First, we have John Saxon a suspended-in-cryogenics 20th century scientist Dlan Hunt instead of Alex Cord, an improvement in accent and general acting. It might be instructive I suggest to study the primary changes made from the first to the second attempt this one was written not as an original concept but from a story treatment called "Poodle Shop" that was one of more than a dozen developed by Gene Roddenberry, when he had hoped "Genesis II" might be picked up by a network's 'tsars' under its unarguably better title. It is, as those who have seen "Genesis II" and an inferior sequel know, the second attempt to create a pilot film that would sell as a television series. This is a tough-minded and quite intelligent script, by Juanita Bartlett and Gene Roddenberry.

As I already said, some of the cast members are very attractive, so that helps as well Muldaur is quite striking as the leader of these women. 'Planet Earth' is adequately paced, but its real strongest suit is its sense of humour.

One good thing about TV movies from this era is their brief running times, so there's less chance of them wearing out their welcome.
One lady in particular, Marg (Diana Muldaur, who went on to a role on 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' the following decade), is especially taken with Hunt.Ī rich cast of familiar faces (Janet Margolin, Ted Cassidy, Christopher Cary, Majel Barrett, Jim Antonio, John Quade) helps to make this easy enough to watch, even though it's just as easy to forget. The virile, studly Hunt is considered good breeding stock by these women.
One such society is matriarchal in nature, with all the males kept drugged up and submissive. Now, a post-"conflict" Earth is divided into societies both advanced and primitive. The almighty John Saxon stars as Dylan Hunt, a man who went into suspended animation in 1979, and was awakened in the 22nd century. It is definitely fun in a cheesy, well-meaning sort of way, and it does NOT skimp on sex appeal, with appropriate eye candy for men and women alike. Obviously low-budget, it doesn't feature much in the way of futuristic environments, or costumes, or special effects. It gets most of its juice from its digs at sexual politics. Yet another of Gene Roddenberry's post-'Star Trek' attempts at a series, 'Planet Earth' is generally agreeable entertainment, although nothing special.
