[net.sf-lovers] Genesis II and remakes with John Saxon

There were several postings on the TV movie "Genesis II" and
actor John Saxon.  Yes there was a third movie, and I'm surprised
no one seems to have posted the title.	The first pilot film,
"Genesis II" (1973) starred Alex Cord as scientist Dylan Hunt who
awakens 200 years in the future; Gene Roddenberry produced this
film.  "Planet Earth" (1974) was a remake with John Saxon as Hunt.
The story changed as Hunt meets women who make men slaves.  The
third film, "Strange New World" (1975) also starred John Saxon.
There were similarities, but this time Saxon played one of three
astronauts who return to Earth from suspended animation.  Also,
the film was not produced by Roddenberry.
