EDIT: Here's some information from Fury Diamond, the amazing owner of rangercrew.com who has many sources within production.

Hello. This is my rant.

Jonathan Tzachor, executive producer of Power Rangers Samurai, Super Samurai, Megaforce, and the upcoming Super Megaforce. Also played EP back during the Saban era.

There's a rumor that he had once mentioned to a writer during the episodes of Samurai that he "doesn't consider the Disney-era as canon".

Ahmit has stated that guest stars aren't 'uninvited' due to budget limitations, and that it is the decision of Tzachor to invite/uninvite a cast member. That being said, Rhett Fisher was invited only to have Jonathan Tzachor shoot him down and cite budget limitations as the reason.

Jonathan Tzachor is also the reason that the writers of Megaforce were let go at the beginning of production of Super Megaforce and were replaced with (get ready for it) ... SAMURAI WRITERS. Here's cliffnotes version of Fury Diamond's explanation.

So after Samurai received very negative remarks from the Power Rangers fan community, they brought in new writers for Super Samurai to try and improve what they could (and for the most part, the latter end episodes WERE better). Those same writers were kept on for Megaforce. They were trying to bring more originality and steer clear of "COPY/PASTE TRANSLATION" that the "Samurai" was.

Those writers were let go at the break of Megaforce in to Super Megaforce. They were then replaced by the writers of "Samurai", and their stories re-written for Super Megaforce.

That's a decision made by Tzachor.

It's obvious that if we want the QUALITY of Power Rangers to improve, Tzachor needs to go. It's beyond obvious to me that all Tzachor intends to do is come in under-budget every year to look good for daddy Haim. He's single-handedly destroying the quality that Doug Sloan, Bruce Kalish, and Eddie G raised Power Rangers to (with seasons like Dino Thunder, SPD, Mystic Force, and RPM which all had darker tones, more adult themes, etc).

Until then, I suspect Super Megaforce to be nothing more than a literal copy/paste of the Gokaiger episodes, but dumbed down because Tzachor wants to appeal to the lowest age possible. Because kids are dumb, kids can't handle complex stories, and adults and older fans? Psha. Enjoy the 2 minute cameo of your favorite Power Ranger.

My expectations for Super Megaforce now that I see Tzachor has gone back to the dark side?

No former theme songs played for past seasons. As much Sentai footage used as possible, even to the extent of copy/pasting actors in to Sentai footage like we saw in Samurai (Kevin being pasted in to a Sentai scene). No Titanium Ranger. No Phantom Ranger. No past villains. Just an "editted Super Sentai 35th Anniversary" series.

Just disappointment. I hope I'm wrong.
