And like I said as time goes on TV shows have smaller audeinces because there are more of them on to watch but I guess you didn't read that post.

No where in there did I say that thought MMPR was the best. It's pretty much unwatchable now unless you are laughing at it or getting nostalgic over certain episodes. That isn't the point. The point is that these companies are interested in marketing what will get them the most money. They've done the research and they know MMPR casts a wide net for them. I would be hard to sell Time Force or RPM as a flagship to the suits that make the decisions about what to push. The world at large doesn't view things the same way fans do.

I wish the better seasons got more attention and maybe they will one day when it's been 20 or 25 years for them. I sadly doubt it but we can hope.

Err... no, it is celebrating twenty years of the franchise, not twenty years of MMPR, that is the problem here. Hence my saying that you are permeating the attitude that is causing all the problems.

MMPR isn't the most important series in the franchise, it's just the most nostalgic for our generation. There are millions of kids out there who grew up with other seasons and don't care about MMPR but it seems we're blinded by our own nostalgia which inflates our own sense of importance.
