Now this is in direct response to the uproar Turbo is causing over in the Cartoon Network community. Some people want to know what could possilbly the appeal of a show so old and boring. Or that after the third season the show just became gutter trash. Well I wrote this piece out of a hope that people will get what the deal is, at least from This Ninja's perspective.
It's on the times but I love posting my articles here cause you guys are pretty straight forward in your opinions and I respect that.

The Power Rangers
Now many of your are going to be young adults(or older) who have long forgotten that years ago every kid in the neighborhood didn’t want a Pokemon or any anime related ninja getup to wear. They wanted a Mighty Morphin Power Ranger. A show about teenagers who could have come straight from Bayside(only people from the previously mentioned age group will know what show Bayside is located in) that in times when the world was under attack would risk their lives against the forces of Rita Repulsa
About a year goes by and some of these ‘Power Rangers’ take their leave as newbies are called in. The newest villain Lord Zedd finds the one good thing inside him is the true love for his former underling Rita Repulsa , who by the end of the final season is his dearly devoted (and pain in the neck) wife.
And that’s about it…isn’t it?
Theres got to be more…
Ah, but there is more, oh so much more.
This is the one show I’ve followed pretty much without end on televison since it started.
It has outlasted X-Files, Xena, Hercules,Stargate, Babylon 5, Earth Final Conflict... wait, you mean you think I just watch this show for the suits? You think I and others would watch this show if it had no science fiction or dramatic appeal? Please, give us Ranger fans more respect than that. The power suits have a great uniformed look to them of course, but so do the robots in Transformers. That is to say that there are thousands of robotic themed television series but only one with the heart, erm, Spark that gets my TV time the most.
It’s that Spark, or heart that drives the die hard Ranger fan to this show. But when all you see is a cheap 20 minute piece of trash production you’re not looking with your heart. This show is put together by the some of the most dedicated people in Hollywood and New Zealand. Some of them have even worked on Herc and Xena and Lord Of The Rings. The actors have gotten their hands dirty helping out where they could, the cast and crew are a family unit. And most of all they bend over backwards to pull off in little miricles for the fans each year.
I look at a lot of science fiction, I’ve read a fair number of science fiction novels. And I say that this show is deserving ot being established as one of the top science fiction programs out there. Of course it doesn’t always have the depth of Doctor Who or Star Trek, but believe me it certainly is not from a lack of trying. 1998’s Power Rangers in Space is a fantactic ride where the heroes set across the stars to find their leader Zordon who was snatched from his home only to have to sacrifice his life to save the universe in the end. 2005’s Power Rangers SPD was a group of rookies allusion of racial tension and finding out your purpose as a young adult while trying to deal with being a cop in the near future..
Time Force is just awesome.
Now I know PR fans are everywhere but most think they will be embarresed by the show biut I tell you this man, this is one of the shows I want to show my kids. This show that features good vs evil, no cussing, martial arts(done expertly well) honor, loyalty, self sacrifice, love, dealing with hate, racism, grief, regret and positive and negative choices.
Everyboy grows up and everyboy grew up with at least one season close to heart. All the reviews for the latest game Super Legends are surprisingly not directly negative towards the idea of a Power Ranger game. In fact most of the gamers I’ve talked to spoke about how they wanted something against the normal Ranger game. In other words if there was a bad( bad being good) Power Ranger game they’d snatch it up.
See what this show really does at it’s core is talk to the inside of people who might want to do the right thing , who wish they were stronger in times of distress. There is something downright awesome seing the good guys whip the badguys into shape. And this show does it everyday with a whopping 651 episodes.
This is my show and it could be your show is you stopped a looked a few episodes, or even asked a Ranger fan why do we like it so much. You’ll be lglad you did
You can trust this Ninja on this because it’s true.
