I don't know how popular they are, but I listened to the audio dramas of Blade and Drive. But, I?m afraid, without the actors of the original shows, such projects will interest few people.

They're popular...and I haven't listened to any the whole way through yet (though I am looking to rectify that shortly)!

Many of the original actors do return, though sometimes it takes awhile to accomplish this. Some actors have, sadly, passed away and recasts have been done to accommodate this.

Many of the Eighth's popular adventures come from the audio stuff.

I'm afraid I don't know about Kamen Rider Audio Dramas, but it seems like they don't have the same amount of investment or intrigue.

The reason I brought all this up though is how they took a visual medium and found a way to tell new stories (many of which are meant to take place in-between TV adventures as well as some comic and novel adventures) in a manner that has worked exceptionally well for the past 25 years! Even if an audio drama isn't the right answer for Power Rangers, it's still possible that the aforementioned premise might lead to the right answer if only because it inspired someone somewhere to think about this franchise just a little bit differently.

Well, at least Drive Saga: Kamen Rider Mach Dream Story is worth listening to for Chase's lines and characteristic speech.

Funny y'all should mention audio dramas. I've found a very good Power Ranger and Masked Rider audio drama on Spotify. There aren't any returning actors, and they've changed the story up. It started as a MMPR reimagining, and ended up doing the Masked Rider spin-off. It's definitely a more mature and realistic take on the story. Rife with actions and consequences. I've enjoyed every minute of it. The series will be transitioning to Zeo soon, and I'm super hyped for it.

Disney bought FOX Family because the venture wasn't doing well and Newscorp had to sell. Disney were the highest bidder in the end. What I'm saying is that if the venture had succeeded. It's likely that the franchise could've been more stable. Power Rangers could've been one of the marquee shows on that channel.

Yes Power Rangers should've been direct to home dvd/digital released like DC does. It could've allowed for more depth to some of the previous ranger seasons.

Not necessarily, it might have made Disney bid more to buy it m, even if Fox wasn't looking to sell initially. Besides which I doubt it would have changed Fox's trajectory much, and even of Disney didn't get Fox Family then, they certainly would have gotten them when Disney bought Fox later.

Eh you never know. FOX Family would've competed against CN, Nick and Disney as a channel. Plus it's an alternate timeline so who knows if Disney would even want to buy FOX. But I still have more confidence in FOX Kids/FOX Family than Hasbro or Disney.

you know what i miss the bandai toyline because i saw a legacy power communicator in the ecommers at my job goodwill.
