People may not have liked the way Disney did things, people like Kalish and so on, but honestly considering Disney 'didn't care' about Power Rangers, threatening to cut it every five minutes it's clear by the quality of the acting, writing, new additional footage and so on and so forth that they put a lot more care, effort and most importantly money into their seasons than Saban ever did.

Oh if only Saban had been absorbed as a whole instead of just the franchises. Why? Well, Disney has bought multiple companies and they haven't all gone to crap. You guys see The Avengers? Or are you excited about the new Star Wars movies? Hell, say what you want about Digimon Frontier and Data Squad, at least those seasons had individual theme songs and for all the flaws, much of it comes from just the dubbing process, so a good or bad story for a dubbed anime is more reliant on Japanese writers and Western Culture hitting that sweet spot.

Disney was bad, but they could have been worse. And maybe if they aired Power Rangers on the basic Disney Channel, they could have gotten more viewership and we could have gotten a 32 episode Power Rangers Samurai with a new plot and not the cut and paste, 40 episodes over 2 years version we ended up getting.
