How did 'In Space' manage to save the franchise?

[Forever Knight]

Judd Lynn was a guy? I thought he was a girl.

Only on tuesdays.

:laugh:

 

[The 2nd Evil]

His real name is Chip Lynn.

Supposedly, the character of Chip from Mystic Force was named for and based on the personality of Chip Lynn.

 

[Forever Knight]

Wow what an insult.

 

[HenshinRenegade]

MF's Chip was based on Chip Lynn? Wow did not know that.

 

[The 2nd Evil]

Supposedly.

It turned Power Rangers in to a Universe that one could travel around in and have an adventure.

Made the PR land/spacescape something that could be traveled there and back and allowed one to see all the heroes, allies, and sites along the way.

Didn't make it just a series of monster attack situations, but a full realized world of adventure.

A line as simple as, "You're Planetary Rangers... what do you know about Space?" was simply awesome.

Sadly, ever since the end of Lost Galaxy or maybe 'Trakeena's Revenge' I feel that they never capitalized on that. Not enough for my taste.

They opened up a whole UNIVERSE of planets and cultures and villains and good guys...But even SPD with its nice KO-35 mention just turned everything around back to Earth. And even with its globe-trotting premise Overdrive felt like it all happened in the Hartford's backyard -.-

haha. Yeah, i was shocked to hear that judd lynn is a man. I been watching Power Rangers since it started, and i recall seeing his name pop up in PRiS, and I always that he was a girl!

Well, that and that PR is based off Sentai which I only discovered upon staying for the credits of Ninja Storm where it said it was based off something called Hurricanger. That, plus I bought what I thought was a VCD set (yeah, ancient) of Dino Thunder from China, turns out it was my first super sentai.

Is Jonathan Tzachor also a girl? Just kidding!

That's Disney for ya' and that's another reason why most of us hate it.

Which is why, as absurd as the concept may sound - I've never been against a Stargate style season of P.R.

Kinda like Lightspeed or Time Force, but with a Stargate.
