I've actually recently, due to Netflix streaming, watched all three seasons of MMPR, both seasons of Big Bad Beetleborgs, and now am into the second season of VR troopers, and of the three shows... Honestly, I find VR Troopers probably the blandest.

I don't mind the characters, but the plots are so all over the place and with them splicing stuff from not one, not two, but THREE Toku shows that are seriously older looking than even Zyuranger was for MMPR alongside the American shot footage...

It's just too cluttered, Every episode has to find a way to separate Ryan from his friends since their suits are from two different shows.

I mean Saban did a heck of a lot better job with the second season of MMPR incorporating Dairanger's Kiba Ranger into things alongside the still being used Zyuranger stuff in that they actually shot a lot of new American footage with the suits together.

Why they couldn't for VR Troopers is beyond me. Did they kill their budget with the then upcoming MMPR: The Movie? Heck, even Big Bad Beetleborgs has more American footage done of the suits.

Still, it's worth a look through as it still offers some entertainment...and you can picture a "What If" scenario between it and MMPR in that the actor playing Ryan Steele in VR Troopers was supposed to be the White Ranger in MMPR, and Jason David Frank was to be the new lead for VR Troopers, then known as "Cybertron" ...(*cough* Transformers home planet) originally.
