This is us dealing with it. While the final decision is Saban's decision, that does not mean we should let Saban get away with it.



All the better to persuade Saban, my friend.

Actually, let me rephrase that; all the better to persuade Saban, D-D-D-Decade! (You see? I remembered. :D)

I think the reason people are upset is Saban Brands, especially at the last Power Morphicon, seemed to be really stretching out the hand to the older fans, hyping up Megaforce as the "most expensive" season and that it'd be full of surprises that would appeal to new viewers and older viewers alike.

But all we seem to be getting in terms of information is that the show is taking steps BACKWARDS in terms of quality and writing, by bringing back a staff that did not resonate with the older audience (writers) and seemingly taking out attempts at originality for more copy/paste Sentai stories.

The show may be intended for children, but when you market a season towards the older audience and more or less end it with a "HAHA FOOLED YOU", it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. We may be a small demographic, but we're still part of the overall demographic, as Power Rangers has become pop-culture (like Transformers, Ninja Turtles, GI Joe, Masters of the Universe, Thundercats, etc.) and to do next to nothing for that demographic in a 20th Anniversary is akin to saying "Thanks for sticking around but we don't need you anymore".

With that feeling coming across as it has lately, I don't blame anyone for being upset/irritated/frustrated/annoyed. Too early to /ragequit, but it's definitely lowering many peoples' expectations for what they were hoping would be one hell of an anniversary season.

This is a celebration of twenty years of Rangers right, so yall saying that only the kids matter, that the adult demographic doesn't mean worth a damn. Usually I'd agree but the kids are the only people who DON'T care about the shows legacy or know of all the teams and characters.

If Saban really doesn't care about the older audience and only wants to appeal to a new generation to sell toys, then why are they doing a Power Rangers 20 celebration thing any way then?

Surely this is entirely marketed at old fans?

This raises the question of the possibility that there won't be specific "episodes" that are dedicated to some or all the series. Out of 20 episodes total, I'm inclined to agree with this. What if there isn't dedicated episodes for the series, or at least with an actor or two and if we do get those dedicated series episodes it's all in-suit.

If that's the case, there's your answer. Sell more toys. Kids don't care about the actors, they care about the Rangers. There's a reason why they don't make toys of the civilian Rangers.


Also, unrelated, but your signature makes me want to vomit. Not because of the image, but because of how fast it goes and the way it repeats over and over again. I love me some Ash and some Brisco County Jr. but damn, that signature...

And haha! I've never heard of anyone getting ill from a gif before, that is impressive.
