I've called Turbo mismanaged plenty of times before. And RPM, while awesome, feels more like a primetime action drama in hindsight rather than a PR season.
Is that bad? I don't know. Personally, I feel that style would be better for an American Rider series.

Which is probably why it doesn't feel traditionally "PR." (And probably why Disney never aired it.)
I wonder what RPM would have been like if it wasn't the last Disney season...

And there had never been a real 'dark and gritty' PR season. I've never thought RPM was as dark as people say it is, aside from the post apocalyptic setting. Do I think it's one of the best? Yeah. But not cause PEOPLE ARE DEAD.

Turbo did well enough to warrant In Space.

And I agree, the near extinction of all life on earth does not make RPM good, the character interactions and development make it good. Ziggy risked his life to help the less fortunate, Summer realized all that glitters is not gold, Flynn achieved his dream of being a real hero, Scott proved his valor and merit to his father and left his late brother's shadow, Dillon was basically cyber-Andros in a muscle car, and K reconciled her hand in the creation of an evil.
