Haim Saban and co.- "Whats risk? Isnt that a game?"

I don't think the problem is that the ratings dropped, but that the ratings rose during seasons based around high schools. It gives the false impression that the setting is what makes bank, and not just circumstance/good advertisement.

Considering the "success" of all the soulless tweencoms written by Dan Schneider (or as I call him, Chuck Lorre Lite) that Nick airs, PR might be sticking to High School.

Fuck you marketing trends.

I think it's the same issue that comes from companies funding projects, but they don't know why or what makes them popular.
The tween sitcom is popular for the romance that aren't love dodecahedrons (Seriously), not just because they occur in high school.

That's my dream Pr season. The closte we got was RPM or mabey lighspeed/ in space.

I wish the super megaforce had more of a pirate motif and had its own standalone season unlike meagforce. It would be cool seeing the rangers reduced to scrapers looking for something to hold their ground now that they have been properly defeated.
Also throw in post wartorn earth and rangers in hiding for X years in the time between the meagfore warstar invasion and the start of super mega.

I can dream can't I!

Oh and make troy the long lost son of zordon/former phantom ranger. (would explain how weird he is around others and the weird loner period in the first few eps.)

That attrocity is the single reason why I cant take anything sentai seriously and anyone that rags on power rangers being bad can watch that video and eat a STHU cookie. That was beyond awful.

Why do you find it awful?

You mean aside from the off beat singing, the completely stupid premise, the terrible singing, the incredibly lame dance moves, or the ear grating singing?

I don't know how anyone can watch that and think it's supposed to be taken seriously. ;)

You're close, it was the previous film -- Gingaman vs Megaranger -- which was using all of the Balban costumes when Lost Galaxy began production. Hence we start off with Scorpius, Trakeena, and Furio, and then, once the suits are available, we get the Gingaman characters introduced (save Shelinda of course).

This was and remains a huge disappointment to me, being as I really, really dig Captain Zahab as a bad guy. At least he did get a little bit of a chance to shine near the end. Still, it's all relative -- I like the other villains as well, so in the end it works out alright, I think.

Another sentai item which never made it to PR but I was hoping would is the Demon Hunter Zeek costume from GoGoV. When the shuttle pilot and Kelsey's "friend," Nancy , was introduced using the logical GoGoV footage, I assumed she would eventually don the armor at some point. I figured she would take up the mantle late in the season, same as Mike had done as Magna Defender. Alas, it was not meant to be. And again, as we got Ryan and the whole Titanium Ranger storyline instead, it ended out working out well once more.
