Sounds like she's putting on an English accent to me, so maybe the character is meant to sound like that. Doesn't sound New Zealand-y to me. I want a Geordie Power Ranger, or a Welsh one. Since I'm a Geordie as well I'd get a kick out of seeing one Ranger saying to the rest of his team 'How'ay lads' or something corny like that, out of all of the SPD cast, I would've liked to have seen a more diverse group of people on the SPD, maybe they have different council members from different countries like the UN or League Of Nations, speaking of Morgana, why not have her as the Big Bad instead of Grumm (is that how to spell it?) because I can't think of a time where the Rangers have faced a female antagonist (I think Andromeda in the episode where the Psycho Rangers made their appearance may have been the only one)

Rita Trakeena Astronema Archerina with Prince Gasket Queen Machina QUEEN Bansheera Rangers have faced alot of female antagonists I don't think any have been the main antagonist though, they've been the right hand henchwoman if you will, Rita was that when Zedd came into the picture, then again Zedd was great so I can let that slid, but there's no accounting for my taste, hell I'm the same person who liked the fact that A Squad in SPD were evil out of choice, so what do I know?

Astronema is the only one was the main antagonist from beginning to end....the rest came in or took over at about the middle of the season till the end but were still more than simply side kicks. Queen Bansheera is the only one who was the main antagonist but was sitting in the background so to speak.

There was also that girl from Operation Overdrive who was pretty until she turned into a gigantic owl.

I resent that Divatox was the first villain to truly beat the Power Rangers, so much. Although they were all relative noobs at that point anyway, with four of them only having half a season's experience (and the most experienced one being all 12 and stuff). Anyone else find it weird that post-"A Friend in Need", Masked Rider never appeared ONCE to help the Rangers out? I'd think the giant monsters attacking Angel Grove would have made the news in Leawood, where Dex lived...

I know so many put DivaTox as the first to truly beat the rangers but I will always say it was Rita and Zed.
They destroyed the dino powers...disintergrated the ninja coins and destroyed the command centre and had turned them into little kids....I mean it was a thorough ass whoopin and this was against a well established ranger team and not half a season of experienced rangers like stated above and before they found it in the rubble there was no zeo crystal.
I call that pretty damn decisive.

Since this is an SPD and Sentai thread. Sky is the most unlikeable guy on there. He just seems to think he's better than everyone and I really doubt Cruger would put up with that kind of attitude for long. God knows I wouldn't put up with him for long. Sky saw being Red Ranger as his birthright. His father was the first SPD Red, and he wouldn't let anyone forget it. And, Doggie didn't put up with it. He saw Sky had the skill to be a Ranger, but didn't want to give him Red. So, Sky was given Blue. And on SPD, all these years later I'm STILL pissed Omega Ranger was a damn ball of light. Boom was right there! The writers could have easily made him Omega.

I call that pretty damn decisive. I'd argue that the whoopin' the received at the hands of Divatox was worse though. They even lost the Command Center/Power Chamber AND Zordon in that one. I'll give Divatox credit for stopping jive-talking Alpha 6. That was the best thing she did. It's funny how Zedd came closer to victory AFTER he was neutered when parents decided he was too scary for kids though...

The first time I saw this I laughed my ass off...and still just as funny. The new sentai shows up all heroic like thinking the rest of his team are with him and ends up with no backup (not like he needed it) but still another hilarious pot shot at the usual sentai tropes.

He's just too adorable. Also, have to give his suit actress credit since she knows a thing or two about playing cute characters. She was Datas in Goseiger, Shafu in Gekiranger, and MegaPink in Megaranger

VIVA LA DIVA bitches!!!! I've never seen any of Divatox but I really want to watch more Operation Overdrive just for Miratrix, Kamdor seems pretty cool with the fur around his neck making him look like he stole half of Bane's coat.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who wasn't expecting Miratrix to turn into a giant owl, I just thought it was going to make her grow like the monster of the week would, who ever her actress is (I know her first name's Ria but I can't remember her last name) really does the screaming to the heavens quite well.

SPD is my favorite season of Power Rangers. I had watched the first two seasons years ago. Then ABC family was showing an hour of Power rangers each morning. I would get home from work watch Saved by the bell then SPD. And I got hooked on SPD. Even made it a point to record each episode. I need to track down the Japanese version. The only Japanese Sentai show I have watched was Magi-Rangers. Which became Power Rangers Mystic Force over here. Yeah you should seek out Dekaranger if you can, because it was one of the better modern era Sentai shows out there. Although you'll notice a lot of the plots are more than familiar because SPD pretty much closely adapted a lot of Dekaranger's story lines. The only key difference is that Dekaranger was mostly a standalone villain of the week style show, whereas SPD had a central big bad that was exclusive to the American version. (Or you could have it both ways and watch the Japanese dub of SPD) I want to see the Japanese dub. The experience will make it worth it.
