You can scream 'never have high expectations' until youre blue in the face, we ALL know this is a kids show aimed at children of a young age, the insane appeal to people on the autistic spectrum is also striking (ive worked with several kids who literally devour the franchise like a crack addiction) so they will never put any effort into coherant, logical storytelling because quite honestly, they dont need to. Stupid works, kids treat the story as a bridge between fights, but fanboys will never stop trying to make sense of what actually cant be made sense of. I wish people would stop trying to make logical sense of the continuity or the actual show, I think its an appalling waste of time and effort.

Also, the target audience is not just the USA, its western audiences. Sorry, but I always take a bit of an issue when people discount the rest of the world in discussions like this.

THAT BEING SAID! I hate this show, the acting is shit, the storylines are paper thin and the dialogue is laughable, but this episode i kind of enjoyed. No the plot doesnt make much sense, i think their attempts to make the show fit the footage is struggling, but the sci-fi flashbacks were a cool inclusion, the shopping/haircut scenes were kind of fun and Orion seems to be capable of acting. Azim is no longer alone, theres now 2 capable actors on the cast!!! Even if most of his acting is emoting.

While Im WAY past the point of being able to truly enjoy a Power Rangers series, I honestly didnt mind this one. Theres only about 12 episodes left and I cant say I will watch them all, but I will give it a go.

To me its like looking at the Trasformers Age of Extinction Dino Sparkers subline. Most fanboys will get all butthurt and tear it to pieces in all their colourful ways, moaning about hasbro screwing them yet again. I will look at it, see the big letters saying 'Ages 4+' and say "Well im close to 3 decades out of the target audience for this, its not my bag but its not a bad idea for the little ones'.

But it can be done though, you can actually make sense in the this show, we see it countless times with the Super Sentai and even see it sometimes in the older shows and especially RPM, it's just a matter of actually trying.
