It was a recycle two—for-one: The costuming overlapped on that one, the plot recycling was saved for the equally eye-rolling ‘Angel One’ where
In this episode, an away team visits a world dominated by women to search for survivors of a downed freighter, while the crew of the Enterprise suffer from the effects of a debilitating virus.
Yes Angel One is similar to Planet Earth. But there is absolutely nothing in common between Planet Earth and the TNG episode Justice.
It isn’t an Amazon world controlled by women. The men aren’t drugged. There’s no woman vs woman battle to claim the protagonist. There’s no overcoming drug to allow men to fight against invaders.
Justice is about Wesley Crusher stepping on grass and getting the death sentence. It’s a legal trial style episode where Picard argues for Wesley’s life against a god like race that oversees the Edo.
The TOS episode What Little Girls are made Of also features and actress where the top crosses over. A crisscross overlaid fabric blouse does not mean the TOS epsisode has anthing to do with Planet Earth 1974.
As I also pointed out it was also used in the 1960’s. A crossover blouse has nothing to do with your claim that they were the same story. The costumes don’t even look similar.
Sorry, it really looked and played too much like the scenario in Roddenberry’s 2nd failed ‘Dylan Hunt’ pilot ‘Planet Earth’ (1974).
Roddenberry never left any idea unrecycled, but John Saxon looked better as eye candy.
Diana Muldaur looked better in the X-cross get-up too.
Suddenly, I realize who should have been cast as the lead in Zardos.
Careful. If stillpaisleycat sees this post they are going to start claiming that the TNG episode Justice is a ripoff of Zardoz too.
?? Planet Earth featured John Saxon entering an Amazon (dominant female) culture.

The TNG Edo plot was completely different with absolutely nothing in common.

The costuming is from the same design language and it was lame for the 1980s if passable in the 70s.
