In Space 8.
Astronema grinning to herself while imagining the city being nuked was pretty fucking dark, between that and Andros walking around his dead planet there is some heavy shit going on here. Honestly as far as things go, Astronema is pretty progressive, especially as she's an original creation. Shame the actual focus of the episode though was Cassie and her stupid diary. Who the fuck cares? At least the real world drama in the Andros focused episode both showed him adapting to Earth life and stopping both a monster and a bunch of thieves. What does this shit achieve? Painting men as total creeps? Thanks. The action was a bit better implemented this week. It's still not really that great, but it seemed to at least try and integrate and build around Megaranger. Whereas last week you could practically hear the huffing and puffing whenever they had to use footage. Plus, the Megatank was pretty darn sweet.

So I'm nine episodes into In Space and I have to ask...when does it get good?
It seems to be the one Power Rangers show which is even appreciated by the haters of the franchise. And yeah sure, it has some great ideas and is a far cry from Megafarce/fail/forced but the execution of most of the ideas downright fails. I'm honestly contemplating just dropping this and watching a different Power Rangers show, this just hasn't been very good so far.

In Space is the one show where they shouldn't be going to school. even more so than supermegaforce.

Yeah the show bothered to establish that they are on borrowed time because of Zordon, and Andros also established he's desperately trying to find his sister...so they've spent every episode in Angel Grove since?!

Due to my general disappointment with In Space I decided to skip ahead and watch the first episode of Lightspeed Rescue.
Once again, the fact there is a focused story, established characters and a much greater quantity of American to Japanese footage should be expected but after Neo Saban, going back to Old Saban and seeing this is just kinda special. Sadly much like In Space although everything I said is true, once again it's full of questionable storytelling and casting choices. Like if nothing else, the core concept of In Space was awesome, Lightspeed....yeah not so much. In terms of action, there is a hilarious moment where Carter falls on a bit of "debris" in slow motion, to which we both hear and see the polystyrene scatter, why they left that in...eh. The monsters have interesting designs, but the engineering on the suits is primitive with the opening MOTW with hilariously stumpy, limited arm movement. On the flipside, the morph is cool as all hell and I REALLY like the suits. They are still relatively simple, but not downright boring like In Space. Plus in general, everyone came across as really badass when morphed so you got that satisfying power jump you never seemed to get with In Space and it gave the fight gravitas that it was in the ruined city street in front of a crowd of onlookers.

Just finished Time Force. Thirteen Years later and it's still awesome!
Now I'm on Wild Force... I'm beginning to think Time Force was a little too good. |

Wild Force was so bad it scared me off from trying Gaoranger for years. Which was a mistake. Gaoranger is the kind of awesome Wild Force can't even come close to. But more to the point Wild Force suffers from being a part of the initial Saban-Disney shift. Part of it's production was interrupted because of that. So it has some distinct issues.

Okay, so I just finished off the best (IMO) season that Power Rangers had to offer, and now I'm gonna start what was hailed as the worst until Neo Saban came along.
Yep, I'm going from RPM to OO. |
