RIP to the GOAT
Such unexpected and sad news. His memory will always live on thru the show and I wouldn't be surprised if they do a whole episode tribute to him at some point in one of the future seasons
The show took on a whole new light when he came into the picture as he always commanded the screen

Fighting Spirit is the best tribute to the character, the storyline is a little near the knuckle given recent events, but the ending is reaffirming. If you're struggling, know that your will to live is stronger than any ranger

Seeing as so many other shows from the 90s have done reboots.
Instead of continuing in a forward motion, would anyone like a reboot a MMPR or Power Rangers Zeo?
Same Zords. Alpha 5 and Zordon.
But either you have new rangers taking on the same suits, or the same rangers with a few new additions due to Tommy and Jason not available for the reboots.

So looking at Billy and Zeo. What did creative have planned for him, let's assuming he stays.
1. Does he get the Gold Ranger power after all? I heard he didn't get it because he already told them he was leaving before they passed the gold power on.
2. Does he get his powers back and becomes the Blue Zeo Ranger/Blue Turbo Ranger with him coming back at taking the reigns from Rocky. So he's still written out and Billy is blue again.
3. Does Billy stay in the command center straight through Zeo, Turbo and then finally in space he returns because the rangers are in another galaxy and so is he with the alien rangers. So he stops aging and is now back to being a ranger.
Those are the only 3 logical booking ideas I would think they had for Billy, if he stayed. Anyone else hear of other creative plans they had for Billy?
Edit: The Power of Gold episode where the Gold Ranger debuts, while Billy "disappears" during the ranger's fight scene. What A TEASE man.
Edit Edit: Every episode leading to Jason's return they teased Billy So HARD!

If I remember correctly, Billy/David wasn't sure he wanted to stay due to the harassment so he was sort of being phased out but kept on as basically the hands on guy for the Rangers. Saban says Yost left due to pay dispute but things were on pretty bad terms David himself has confirmed he was never meant to be the Gold Ranger. Austin was brought back to boost the ratings. David would had invented the Turbo Ranger powers if he had stuck around. After that you don't hear much plans about him but most likely I could seen them phasing him out entirely like they did with the other rangers in middle of Turbo or he would had lasted until end of Turbo best case scenario

This would make total sense as the creator of the Turbo Rangers if that is the case.

In theory yes, he was supposed to be the one to create the Turbo power or very least working working on a power just in case they ever needed it

The Zeo powers were supposed to be destroyed. I believe it was inferred the water destroyed their powers at least in regards to Kat and JYB has said him and Tonya were supposed to lose their powers underwater trying to save Jason and Kim

The Zeo powers continually increase but there's a limit to how much power the human body can take. The Turbo power powers were probably safer.

Zordon says in the Turbo movie the Zeo Zords would not be enough against Maligore, so I took that to mean overall the powers wouldn't be enough so they had to upgrade and create new powers to deal with him

Just was annoying how they built up the Zeo powers a bunch when they first got them and then the Turbo powers had no explanation as to their origins or how they were better than the Zeo powers. Was just out of left field and killed my interest in the show before it started.

Was just out of left field and killed my interest in the show before it started. Yeah, they could still have just said the Turbo energies were simply 'accelerated' Zeo powers since the costumes all had the exact same colour scheme Losing Yost at the same time didn't help of course, since you could attribute the turbo powers to a few lines from him about enhancing the Zeo powers or whatnot, and it'd be a great evolution of Billy's character in that he's able to create POWERS instead of Zords, i wonder if Billy would become an apprentice Morphing Master? All of a sudden the ex-Zeo Rangers all developed science brains and created the powers themselves. Is it really that difficult still for some fans to not buy Tommy's PHD in Dino Thunder when he did something like this literally before Graduation?
