Planet Earth is a 1974 American made-for-television science fiction film that was created by Gene Roddenberry, written by Roddenberry and Juanita Bartlett. It first aired on April 23, 1974, on the ABC network, and stars John Saxon as Dylan Hunt. It was presented as a pilot for what was hoped to be a new weekly television series. The pilot focused on gender relations from an early 1970s perspective. Dylan Hunt, confronted with a post-apocalyptic matriarchal society, muses, "Women's lib? Or women's lib gone mad..." The film also stars Diana Muldaur, Ted Cassidy, Janet Margolin, Christopher Cary, Corrine Camacho, and Majel Barrett. Marc Daniels directed the film.

Production

Planet Earth was the second attempt by Roddenberry to create a weekly series set on a post-apocalyptic future Earth. The previous pilot was Genesis II, and it featured many of the concepts and characters later redeveloped and mostly recast in Planet Earth. Planet Earth was intended to be a second pilot for Genesis II.

A third and final movie, Strange New World, was aired in 1975. However, Roddenberry was dismayed by the continuous changes that networks and studios were making and took his name off of the project after “Planet Earth” failed to result in a series. Strange New World also starred John Saxon as Captain Anthony Vico.

None of these three pilots was ever developed into a series; however, some of the characters served as prototypes for the later TV series (based on Roddenberry's ideas), Andromeda. Most notably, the lead character of Andromeda was also named Dylan Hunt. Similarly, he is 'frozen in time', emerging into a chaotic post-apocalyptic universe were war destroyed the civilization of Hunt's time.
