Disney has a pretty high bar, as far as quality is concerned. When you watch a Disney production, you're going in with a brand guarantee that it's going to be pretty decent. That mandate for higher quality was immediately felt in Power Rangers. Across the board, Disney paid for better talent. Better actors, better writers, better directors, better producers. And, like they've done with Marvel Comics, Disney avoided micromanagement. That allowed the Power Rangers creative teams more room to explore ideas they actually believed in and to take greater creative risks. You can see what kind of difference that makes on screen.

Saban has proven time and time again that they actively disdain their target audience. They eliminate complexity because they think kids are stupid; they think they can skimp on storytelling because kids won't notice. I don't think that's a criticism that could ever be applied to Disney.

I really don't know why Saban is this way. They were cheap before but back then they were also extremely creative, from MMPR all the way to Lost Galaxy. The adaptations were completely different from their source material, and they were adventurous in setting, stories and ideas.
