Yep. You are. David Yost was abused and insulted on the set quite often.

Also, The other three you listed are A list celebrities. They're paid to go back to do cameos and shows and it's worth their while. Those actors became those people because the fandom is large enough that after they did their stints as Star Trek actors, that's what they did for the rest of their lives primarily. They became icons and fan demand. While Billy is a fan favorite, our fandom isn't large enough to allow hardly any Power Ranger actor to continue with an acting career. Most have moved on. If I was in the same situation that David Yost was in while working under Saban, I'd say no too.

These people have lives now. Some, like Yost, have tried to move on from Power Rangers. In fact, Yost was fairly reclusive to the fandom until not too long ago. He doesn't want to embrace something that gives him bad memories, but he still appreciates his fans. The two don't have to go hand in hand.

I fear that your response is one that the majority of the fandom will feel, betrayed because their favorite Ranger actor isn't coming back. I really really hope that's not the case here though and most won't think selfishly because the actors have decided to do something more worthwhile in their lives.
