Dear Samurai,

Can you please stop being terrible?

Thanks.

I overslept. ****.

That would require Saban to hire better writers to write the scripts and dialogue for these episodes........instead of the current writers that "COPY & PASTE" from the Shinkenger scripts and add a few original things here and there like the Bulk & Spike scenes.

But that would also require Saban to pull out more from his big wallet..........but he's a Cheap Jew

Pros:
- Bulk and Spike getting involved in the action. Nice to see their roles possibly building to something.
- Nice they kept the "liar" detail*

Cons:
-Emily's voice ='s annoying as hell. I'm seriously tempted to compare it to nails on a chalkboard since it was really hard to focus on the fight scene with her excuse for acting going on.
-Speaking of Emily, is it me or was the final scene really jarring? It's like "Nice sweet moment, walking hom--ICE CREAM ICE CREAM!!!11!@@!"
- Did Emily really need to quote that "sticks and stones' poem?
* at the cost of everyone else. <<

I've finally watched a repeat episode just less than almost three hours ago! I woke up nine minutes late from my nap knowing that PRSamurai has already aired at 12noon. That, I'm very displeased to know that I missed not knowing what's going on from the beginning. But now I do. Allow me to put some thoughts in this episode.

- I sense a laziness from this episode alone. All this scenes were pulled are sooo predictable! You can tell what's going happening next, however it was an ok episode. Not too bloody terrible episode. I wish the writers could come up with an original idea. From this episode alone, I'm already looking forward to Goseiger adaptation even more than PRSamurai, to be honest. I hope it's going to get better and better in the future.

- It was nice to see Bulk and Spike facing the monster! I laughed soo hard as they send flying with their underwear showing! Good going!

- Master Xandered...how can I put it? Did I really see him threatening with his sword being drawn? Gotta to love him. Thank you, Saban!

- Mike was too harsh on Emily. Way too harsh! But all good in the end!

- Insults...how do I put it? Very boring!

- In the end, I loved how Bulk and Spike march to seek the revenge that the monster send them flying. It was very cool seeing them supporting power rangers. I loved it!

All in all, I must give this episode a way lower than my expectation. Way beyond my expectation! 2 out of 5. Very disappointing episode, but still very good, though.

See you next week for an all new episode!

References to both Transformers(Negatron)and Gossip Girls...awesome.How I would love to see the "cease and desist" leters Saban will be getting from the Hasbro and CW legal departments.Obviously,Samurai Rangers don`t live by the code of copyright infringement.

Insert groan and/or rimshot here.In fact,that joke is worthy of my avatar

As for this episode,it was OK..but way too preachy.I don`t mind kids` shows having a moral to the story at all,in fact I think it can be a great thing.But they can`t feel forced and tacked on.Unfortunately,in this case..it did.

But,I have hopes the next episode will be better

I laughed when Mia's bad cooking was brought up and when Mia asked if she was a good cook.

I swear that I heard a word of "Megatron" instead of "Negatron"! It must be my imagination somehow. And reference from Gossip Girls? Since when? I don't noticed at all! Show it to me, please.
