Here's the hypothetical. Saban announces tomorrow that he's going to Reboot a single season of Power Rangers. Now this season can be from either Saban Brands original run, their new run, or Disney's run. For the sake of this we'll also say that it'll be re-shot with 100% new footage for all scenes.
So then. What season should be Rebooted, why, and what would you change to make it better? What would you keep? |

I personally would prefer each season be left alone the way it is but if I had to pick one... I'd give Turbo a redo. Make the story stronger and have a better reason as to why everything was switched around or at least pace it better. I'd also have it that the Zeo team kept their Zeo powers and Dametria recruited the Turbo rangers so that they could replace Zordon and the Zeo team as earth's protector after they were called off to Eltar. Zordon and Alpha going as normal but the Zeo rangers coming with them to guard them.

Turbo, simply for better explanations of everything.

Reboot Super Megaforce. Make it a completely separate 40+ episode season fully-adapted from Gokaiger, no Goseiger footage whatsoever.

Megaforce. The first thing I'd change is the name, but even if they left it and did radical changes to everything else I'd be happy.
The story would be the first thing to go. There are ways to combine Goseiger and Gokaiger to make it work, and what's sad is Toei did all the work for them. You start with Megaforce. It can start exactly the same. Troy can still have his visions, which they never explained and seemed to have forgot about completely, about the Great War that's coming. And keep Vrak. First Vrak, who announces himself as already as Prince of the Royal Fleet, works with mercenaries. The Warstar Militia. They, of course, fall to the Power Rangers and he's forced to take drastic measures. So he creates Mutants. Hoping their power will overwhelm the Rangers. Gosei, who you do not make a giant damn Tiki, knows they need help. So he takes his robotic helpers and creates two new Robots. Data Knight (Datas) and Robo Knight. And they begin helping the Rangers. There was no excuse for keeping Datas out of Megaforce. His character was perfect for the kids. Perfect. The Mutants fall and this brings us to Metal Alice. I'd keep her the same as she was in Megaforce originally, she was perfect too. The Rangers, needing more help, get aid from a mysterious stranger.. Phantom Ranger. Who delivers to them the Miracle Zords. And warns them a greater evil is coming. Vrak becomes desperate when a messenger arrives from his brother's fleet, asking for answers why Earth hasn't been conquered yet. So he alters himself. Becomes Nega-Vrak (Brajira) and attempts conquering the world through the power harness from the Eclipse. Robo Knight is destroyed in the battle. Sacrificing himself to save Datas, who is later reprogrammed into Polytron. A small robotic Parrot. When Vrak is defeated the Armada arrives and begins their attack on Gosei first. Gosei's base is destroyed, their power is destroyed, but Phantom Ranger saves their lives. Tells them there is always hope.. and sometimes you need a pirate to save the world. He hands them the Buccaneer Morphers and the Skyship Jolly Ranger (Jake names it, they all laugh). And they live on the run. Meeting Rangers of the past who remind them what being a Ranger means. And that when it comes time they'll all return to help. Harkening back to Turbo, Phantom Ranger grants the wish of a boy who wants to help the Rangers. Giving him the Silver Morpher. The finale is The Call. As promised every Ranger arrives to help. In person or through VO's. It's possible! We lost two Rangers, but they'd be there in spirit. All of them taking part in one final epic battle to save Earth. |

I'd have them reboot a series swimming in potential but got shafted by poor decisions. Turbo.
Drop Demetria, Alpha 6, Elgar, and the Zeo rangers. Let TJ and the others be there from the very beginning (Yes, even Justin), and let the Phantom Ranger be more of a character.

All of them taking part in one final epic battle to save Earth. I would have brought in GoseiGreen as either a Mentor that lost his morphing ability, a tragic character rebuilt into RoboKnight, or the guy who discovers, liberates and recruits the Alien pirates under Vekar's control (pirates who had been tasked with stealing every Power that could oppose the Armada. The team would either take over from the Mega cast (taking the Megaforce moniker because they didn't really have one anyway) and begin fighting back with the very powers they stole, or hand their Morphers over to the Mega cast as new power sets (Jake gets Green because there wasn't a Black pirate, a fact he doesn't really mind because Gia, despite being Yellow, said she really likes Green). And the Green Pirate would be established as a Xybrian because why the fuck not? |

Instead of a reboot I would like Saban to make Power Rangers season based on pre-Zyuranger Sentai seasons.

I agree with this guy, super Megaforce needs to be it's own thing instead of a continuation of megaforce. I also think they should put power rangers back on Disney because the ones that were with Disney had really good storylines and action scenes plus they didn't rely so much on the original footage.
