Recycled in Space/Live-Action TV

"Doctor: Have you seen?! There are these things, these great big space Rhino things, I mean, Rhinos from space, and we're on the moon! Big space Rhinos, with guns! ON THE MOON !"
 * The Buck Rogers in the 25th Century episode "Space Vampire" is Dracula...In Space, complete with a wrecked ship with a ship's log that documents the deaths of the crew and a passenger named William Helsing from "New London"
 * While Power Rangers repeatedly uses this trope (list below), the series actually titled Power Rangers in Space is not an example. The move to outer space brought a lot of changes to the status quo, such as more complex villains and mostly abandoning the City of Adventure setup in favor of searching alien planets for their kidnapped mentor. That said, most Power Rangers series are recycled:
 * In Space was preceded by Power Rangers Turbo, which was Power Rangers WITH COOL CARS !
 * Despite coming right after In Space, Power Rangers Lost Galaxy is the season that's truly Power Rangers IN SPACE ! or Power Rangers LOST IN SPACE !, complete with a Space City of Adventure.
 * Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue: Power Rangers AS RESCUE WORKERS !
 * Power Rangers Time Force: Power Rangers FROM THE FUTURE !
 * Power Rangers Wild Force: Power Rangers WITH ANIMALS !
 * Power Rangers Ninja Storm: Power Rangers AS NINJAS...AGAIN !
 * Power Rangers Dino Thunder: Power Rangers WITH DINOSAURS...AGAIN! !
 * Power Rangers SPD: Power Rangers AS Space Police !
 * Power Rangers Mystic Force: Power Rangers WITH Magic !
 * Power Rangers Operation Overdrive: Power Rangers AS ADVENTURER ARCHAEOLOGISTS !
 * Power Rangers Jungle Fury: Power Rangers WITH ANIMALS...AGAIN ! AND KUNG FU !
 * Power Rangers RPM: Power Rangers After the End ! AND WITH COOL CARS...AGAIN !
 * Wait, wouldn't that make it Mad Max WITH POWER RANGERS ?
 * Power Rangers Samurai: Power Rangers AS SAMURAI ! (Obviously.)
 * Future seasons, based on the Super Sentai source material, would be Power Rangers AS GUARDIAN ANGELS !, Power Rangers AS Space Pirates !, and Power Rangers AS (not-so-) SECRET AGENTS !
 * Many episodes of Battlestar Galactica Classic are lifted from classic movies;
 * "The Gun on Ice Planet Zero" = The Guns of Navarone and Ice Station Zebra. Both movies were based on books by Alistair MacLean.
 * "The Magnificent Warriors" = The Magnificent Seven, which itself was a western version of Seven Samurai.
 * "The Lost Warrior" = Shane
 * "Fire in Space" = The Towering Inferno
 * "Murder on the Rising Star" = Murder on the Orient Express
 * Both the old and new series was heavily inspired by series creator Glen Larson's Mormon faith, making it effectively The Book of Mormon IN SPACE !
 * Hmm...the twelve tribes colonies, originated from Eden Kobol, was forced to move from their homeland to find a promised land Earth that only was known from legend, all due to the actions of a certain man, who after receiving visions and power from a higher being, eventually become the founder and leader of Judaism Christianity a monothestic religion and preach about grace, and after wandering around the desert space for forty four years, manage to arrive on a lush green place planet, all according to the plan of the higher being. Hmm, sounds like a familiar book...
 * The re-imagined series gave us the episode "The Captain's Hand" = Crimson Tide IN SPACE !
 * Re-imagined Battlestar Galactica Reimagined is original Battlestar Galactica Classic TAKEN SERIOUSLY !
 * Hardly "seriously" when you have Cylon fetish-dungeon ships, and crank the Fan Service Up to Eleven. More like a Darker and Edgier version.
 * With the revival of serial-formatted TV such as 24 and others, rather than episodic tales, the Re-imagined Series and J.J. Abrams's Lost were can't-miss-an-episode shows at the time. The subject matter and Mind Screw plots between these two shows were too similar for some fans, jesting that the new BSG was "LOST: IN SPACE !"
 * The prequel Caprica is The Godfather IN SPACE !
 * iCarly: iSpace Out is an iCarly episode...IN SPACE! Well, not really.
 * Word of God even stated in his blog that the characters doing a webcast in space would be Jumping the Shark.
 * Also, iCarly is Lizzie McGuire WITH A WEBSHOW, MINUS HER ANIMATED COUNTERPART !
 * Suite Life on Deck is The Suite Life of Zack and Cody ON A LUXURY LINER ! This one is a direct continuation, a sequel series with the setting changed from a hotel to a cruise liner.
 * Wizards of Waverly Place is Even Stevens WITH MAGIC ! and reversed gender roles.
 * Many episodes of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess are lifted from classic movies, themes or tropes, especially in later seasons. (Probably too many to list individually!)
 * Xena was ''Hercules... WITH CHICKS ! And INCREASINGLY BLATANT LESBIAN SUBTEXT !
 * The Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Balance of Terror" is the 1957 WWII submarine movie The Enemy Below IN SPACE ! Even the bearing of the unidentified initial contact and the captain's maneuvering orders to the helm are copied nearly verbatim. The Romulan ship is cramped and has lots of piping and conduits in all background scenes. The Enterprise's phasers act like depth charges, and at one point the Enterprise and the Romulan ship both go to silent running, fearing to talk loudly lest the other vessel hear them.
 * The Romulans in this episode were The Roman Empire IN SPACE !, as exemplified by Mark Lenard's dignified Centurion character. They didn't stay that way, though. Compare the Romulans in the Star Trek reboot movie.
 * The Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Starship Mine" is Die Hard ON THE USS ENTERPRISE !
 * "Face of the Enemy", in addition to being the Trope Namer for Good Troi Episode, was also The Hunt for Red October IN SPACE !
 * "The Next Phase" is Ghost IN SPACE, MINUS THE ACTUAL DEATH OF THE HEROES !
 * Star Trek itself is, in the words of its creator, Wagon Train TO THE STARS !
 * Of note is that the writer's guide for The Original Series actually suggests inverting this trope, saying to take every scene and "translate it into a real life situation. Or, sometimes as useful, try it in your mind as a scene in GUNSMOKE, NAKED CITY, or some similar show. Would you believe the people and the scene if it happened there?"
 * In TOS, the Klingons are Russians IN SPACE! while the Romulans are the then-inscrutable Chinese... IN SPACE !
 * Vulcans are Elves. IN SPACE !
 * Romulans are Dark Elves/Drow, Klingons are Orcs/Orks, Borg are Undead, et cetera.
 * Borg are more like Horror Film Zombies in space!
 * Nicholas Meyer, director of Star Trek II the Wrath of Khan and Star Trek VI the Undiscovered Country, describes the series as "Horatio Hornblower IN SPACE !"
 * Or, according to Mitchell and Webb, it's HMS Pinafore IN SPACE !
 * The much-maligned Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Meridian" was, as admitted by producer Ira Steven Behr, Brigadoon IN SPACE ! Recalling this idea at a later date, Behr admitted: "I am a moron."
 * The original concept for Deep Space Nine (before they shifted the location from a Federation colony planet to a space station after J. Michael Straczynski pitched Babylon 5 to Paramount) would have been Star Trek ON LAND !
 * The episode "Starship Down" is basically Das Boot IN SPACE.
 * Sea Quest DSV is Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea IN THE FUTURE ! Or Star Trek UNDER WATER !
 * And seaQuest 2032 was seaQuest DSV A BIT FARTHER IN THE FUTURE ! This may mean that seaQuest is its own grandpa.
 * Stargate SG-1 is Stargate WITH MORE GATES !
 * Stargate Atlantis is Stargate SG-1 IN A DIFFERENT GALAXY ! WITH VAMPIRES LIFE-FORCE-EATING ALIENS !
 * Stargate Infinity is Stargate SG-1 IN THE FUTURE ! The episode "200" toyed with this concept. Imaginary pitching segments show SG-1 AS TEENAGERS ! and the show remade WITH PUPPETS !, among other things.
 * Commenters to Gateworld are already calling the new spinoff Stargate: Universe "90210 IN SPACE !" and "Gossip Girl IN SPACE !". And they're NONE TOO PLEASED ABOUT IT, EITHER ! Actually, it's more like "Lost IN SPACE !" (but definitely not Lost in Space).
 * The "you can't go home again" and "big ancient structure with lots of rooms to explore" premise means that Universe is Stargate Atlantis IN SPACE !
 * The In Name Only film version of The Lawnmower Man is best summed up as, "the first two thirds of Flowers for Algernon... IN CYBERSPACE !"
 * Half of all Doctor Who episodes ever are "Hammer Horror/Classic Literature/Contemporary Movie/Greek Mythology etc., WITH ALIENS !" Doctor Who author Ben Aaronovitch once said that "Talent borrows, genius steals, and Doctor Who authors get it off the back of a lorry, no questions asked."
 * The Doctor Who episode "Voyage of the Damned" was The Poseidon Adventure IN SPACE ! It's even lampshaded, since the space ship is appropriately named The Titanic.
 * Its seems to be a recurring theme for the specials, 2010 had "A Christmas Carol" which was, of course, A Christmas Carol IN SPACE ! ...WITH A FLYING SHARK!
 * The Third Doctor story "The Daemons" is Quatermass and The Pit IN WILTSHIRE INSTEAD OF KNIGHTSBRIDGE !
 * And the Fourth Doctor story "The Seeds of Doom" is The Quatermass Experiment IN DORSET ! -- when it's not being The Thing or "The Man-Eater of Surrey Green".
 * The Fourth Doctor story "The Androids of Tara" is The Prisoner of Zenda IN SPACE !
 * In the Big Finish Eighth Doctor story Max Warp, the eponymous Show Within a Show is Top Gear IN SPACE !
 * "Chimes of Midnight" is House of Leaves AS A MURDER MYSTERY FARCE !
 * Of course, between 1970-1973 the show was noticable for being Doctor Who NOT IN SPACE !
 * In one Dead Ringers sketch, the Tenth Doctor is referred to as "Jarvis Cocker IN SPACE !"
 * The Tenth Doctor Donna story "The Unicorn and the Wasp" is an Agatha Christie mystery WITH AGATHA CHRISTIE ! AND ALIENS !
 * The Second Doctor is often described as Charlie Chaplin IN SPACE !
 * The Tenth Doctor plays with this trope in "Smith and Jones":

"Xander: I still don't get why we had to come here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. (Beat) I did not say that."
 * The Eleventh Doctor story "The Lodger" is lampshaded as Doctor Who ON EARTH.
 * The Fox TV movie is Doctor Who IN AMERICA !
 * Alright, let's get this over with...The TARDIS is Time And Relative Dimensions IN SPACE !
 * In-show examples; In "The Big Bang"(not really spoilers since they don't involve the main plot), we learn that the Doctor had previously taken Amy to "Miami IN SPACE "(with "automated sand"). At the very end of the episode, the Doctor is informed of an "Egyptian Goddess on the Orient Express-- IN SPACE ".
 * Blakes Seven was The Dirty Dozen mixed with Robin Hood IN SPACE !
 * Homeboys in Outer Space was, well...ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
 * Parodied on The Daily Show during a short in which Jon Stewart, Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert are TV producers trying to come up with a new reality show. At one point, Colbert complains that "Every pitch [Stewart] makes is just one of mine with the words IN SPACE added to the end."
 * Farscape, with varying degrees of delight, made several such episodes. Possibly the most memorable is the one where, locked inside his own mind, Crichton turns his existence into a Looney Tunes cartoon, with a lot of reference to the Wile E. Coyote/Roadrunner cartoons.
 * Lost in Space is Swiss Family Robinson IN SPACE ! They are, quite literally, the Space Family Robinson!
 * In 1993, thanks to the popularity of Saved by the Bell, NBC replaced its Saturday Morning lineup with TNBC, a lineup composed completely of shows that were Saved by the Bell IN SPACE !
 * California Dreams is Saved by the Bell WITH A BAND !
 * Hang Time is Saved by the Bell WITH BASKETBALL !
 * Saved By The Bell The New Class is Saved by the Bell WITH A DIFFERENT CAST !
 * In fact, any show aimed at teens with a Six-Student Clique and a gimmick is Saved by the Bell WITH A GIMMICK ! Even if it's a drama.
 * Babylon 5: Thirdspace was The Call of Cthulhu (tabletop game) IN SPACE !
 * As Lampshaded in a Voltaire filk, Star Trek: Voyager was Lost in Space IN SPACE !  IN THE Star Trek UNIVERSE !

 * Unhappily Ever After is Married... with Children with A TALKING BUNNY ! (And the dog became a third kid.)

 * Earth: Final Conflict has the 4th season episode "Phantom Companion" which is basically the Phantom of the Opera set on the Taelon mothership, or to put it simply, IN SPACE !
