Well I quite liked the first show but it was banned and taken off the TV.
One of these days I'll finish watching it.

Earlier this year I did the impossible and marathoned the entire series up until halfway through Lightspeed Rescue, I stopped because of combination of series exhaustion and because I had seen most the series up until that point except Operation Overdrive and Samurai (both of which I avoid like the plague).
Anyway, the first Season hasn't aged that well but I still like it for that raw cheesy 90s charm it has, and the multi-part episodes are awesome. Second Season it...not as preserved.

I really hated they never used the dairanger suits in the second season because those suits are awesome especially the helmets.

Yeah it would have made the fight scenes less awkward and they could have had an awesome "passing the torch" moment with Tommy letting Adam become the new Green Ranger. (Leaving Tommy to return as the White Ranger later as it actually happened.) Plus it would have been a great marketing tool as the kids would have new toys for their parents to buy.

And the thunder megazord would have some actual respectable footage...instead just showing a monster the zyurangers fought and splice the thunder megazord footage in.
I can forgive the suits not being used...but that zord footage is a huge negative strike against the second season as a whole.

Let's also not forget that they didn't even have most of the Dairanger Monster Suits, which means that we had even more awkwardness as the monsters would interact with everybody off screen. Then of course they do start using proper Zord footage...just in time for Jason, Zack and Trini to leave we get all that nonsense.

The Green Ranger is STILL the realest motherf***er in the series.

Was talking to a friend the other day about this and he mentioned that for whatever f***ing reason the show we got was also show in Japan which blew my mind a little. You have to think that anyone that was a fan of the original Japanese show was majorly confused when the fight scenes from this other show they liked is in this "new" show they've never seen before.

The Green Ranger is STILL the realest motherf***er in the series. Also the only "original" ranger from MMPR coming back next year. The others either can't or (in the case of David Yost and Walter Jones) won't. But this made me mark the hell out when I saw they were doing this: The Power Rangers version of the Legendary War from Gokaiger. They'd used badly edited snippets of this for Troy's dreams in Megaforce, but the real thing when it happens will be all-new, to take out the pre-Zyuranger teams, and overlaps of characters and suits. There are 10 other Rangers that are confirmed to appear in-person in this stuff, plus 2 more elsewhere in Super Megaforce. The new version of the "Legendary War" will feature almost every suit ever, but only 11 will appear unmasked in the war. Aside from Tommy being confirmed as MMPR Green (He will also show up with Saba elsewhere in the show), TJ and Cassie in the "In Space" suits rather than Turbo, it isn't explained how other Rangers who have worn more than one suit will be determined (Lost Galaxy Pink is Karone, with Melody Perkins confirmed as returning) Weirdly, from marketing teasers etc, it might be possible that in 2014 we finally get the Dairanger suits: Twice, Ryuuranger is seen. Elements of Dairanger did seep into other seasons of Power Rangers, with Master Org from Wild Force using the costume of Gorma Emperor XV, and Lost Galaxy featuring a repainted Aura Changer as a morpher for Mike, the second Magna Defender. Talking of Dairanger and Lost Galaxy, there's been a rumour for years that they were going to use the Dairanger suits in Lost Galaxy as an ancient team of Rangers. This has never really been confirmed.

I went back through Netflix to rewatch the Zordon Era of PR (From MMPR to In Space), and while I think in Space was honestly the best of the era, MMPR still holds a place in my heart.
Plus, my favorite Ranger is Billy, and his exit from Zeo pissed me off more than anything.

I enjoyed the hell out of the Power Rangers, albeit in a backhanded sense. (Although I kinda felt the green ranger thing)
My favorite aspect was the lame spark effect you would see when someone was hit with a weapon or special attack.

I can forgive the suits not being used...but that zord footage is a huge negative strike against the second season as a whole. The thing was....that wasn't actually Zurangers footage but footage that Toei made just for Power Ranger since Saban used up all the Zyuranger footage. The only reason why we got the mash up of dairanger vs. Zyu2 monster was so Saban can get the season 2 toys out for christmas while still using footage that they already had. Also using the thunder megazord wasn't the original idea either. At one point, they were thining of used both the dino zord and the tiger zord aka Zyu3.

I have no idea what some of you are on about...I love Power Rangers though. Never heard of any of this Zura and Dai stuff though, is it even related at all to what we got over here or is it just Japan stuff?
