Close but this kind of comes across in a way that isn't accurate.

Eka enjoyed his time on Power Rangers, but "doesn't want to do it again". He, much like the rest of his cast, didn't like the changes made when Eddie G was fired. At that point they had grown accustomed to his work style and in many ways became friends with him.

It'd be like having a boss you really really like who gets fired and is replaced by someone who you don't think or feel is as dedicated to what they're making as the previous guy.

Dan Ewing is on record saying that his reasons for being coy about Judd Lynn taking over was because the crew was excited to be making Eddie's vision a reality, and when that changes in mid-season mid-filming mid-production, it's really hard to keep yourself motivated day in and day out.

The fact of the matter is the filming and production hasn't changed since the early Saban days - you're up early, filming most of the day, then lights out so you can get 5 hours of sleep and repeat. No one would enjoy doing that for 6 months out of a year.

We still don't have a confirmation on whether or not Eka voiced himself in the team-up and used a pseudo-name to avoid SAG penalties for working non-union. But I will say this - if Eka is waiting for a response, doesn't that usually indicate that he said YES and is waiting to hear more details back?
