I actually kind of liked the idea that the zords were something they owned and kept like a Transformer. After the first episode the cars got gigantic and were never seen at normal size again.

One thing I do miss that leaves with this season is everybody inserting some kind of crystal key to make the transformation. "Rangers, power up your crystals!"

I assume Blue Senturion's homeworld is a bit of a.... :hurr: police state?

Looking at Dino Thunder


Tommy kind of was pretty loving low key super villain evil there.


Literally everything came about because of him and all of it was due to him. Let's sum it up here- he was developing his own super secret Ranger powers, while investigating technology that would allow him to create monsters like Mesagog and the MOTW, and cybernetic stuff like Zeltrax, staffed by his robot army, while he grew an army's worth of bio mechanical Zords, all from his SECRET ISLAND FORTRESS.


The only thing Mesagog did was kick him off the island and co-opt all but most of the Ranger technology. Everything else was poo poo Tommy was doing in his free time.

Are we REALLY sure Tommy isn't still evil and just pretending?

Caranger kinda saved Sentai at the time.

Turbo almost killed Power Rangers.

That was a rumor that's since been debunked, Ohranger's toy sales actually did fairly well in Japan and Carranger's weren't that much higher. Hell, if you want a show that actually almost ended the franchise look at Fiveman (and if you go back further JAKQ literally did kill the series until Toei cut a deal with Marvel and revived it later with Battle Fever J. You actually have the Japanese Spider-Man show to thank for why modern Sentai, and by association, Power Rangers even exists today).

You're right about Turbo though, which is why they pretty much just went for broke with In Space (and later, RPM).

Here's some dirt on Ashley's actress, from an interview with JYB:

quote:

16. Is it true that you once dated Tracy Lynn Cruz?

yep

19. What was your relationship with Tracy Lynn Cruz?

okay here's the dirt
i haven't told anyone online yet. she used me. we were dating and I introduced her to the producers and as soon as she got the part she dumped me. I'm not bitter, i just don't like her she cheated on me the whole time we were together. but i'm glad it happened. the whole experience turned out for the better on my part. Oh and Tracy, if you're reading this...you owe me over $6000 for the mustang you took from me and never paid for. I don't hate her, i just don't like her.

People were spamming "AHHHHH" with each season one opening. I think it was voted in just so the meme didn't have to die.

I made an equally bizarre clip during last night's Zeo run (black guy Alien Ranger steps off UFO, is seen by Bulk & Skull in their cop uniforms, screaming ensues) but I have no idea how to submit it for rotation.

I'd like to think that the twitch chat is less salty about Tommy leaving compared to Justin staying. :allears:

Also, did I miss a scene by not paying attention? It kinda looked like a normal two-parter and then at the last scene they just looked at the new rangers before the "ceremony" started.
