/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

?? Planet Earth featured John Saxon entering an Amazon (dominant female) culture.

The TNG Edo plot was completely different with absolutely nothing in common.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_(Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation)
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
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.
The costuming is from the same design language and it was lame for the 1980s if passable in the 70s.
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.
