Gene Roddenberry did for TV science fiction what Rod Serling did for fantasy -- he choked it full of pretentious, self-aware social commentary.
Roddenberry was never interested in simply telling a good story and letting the critique of contemporary society remain implicit. Instead, the "satire" was brought to the forefront and unsubtly shoved down the viewer's throat.
Genesis II is Gene Roddenberry at his preachy, pompous, pontificating worst. Recommended only if you want to see Majel Barret with two navels.
