Being a Godzilla, Voltron, and UltraSeven fan when I was a child, I fell in love with MMPR immediately.

My introduction to it was in some magazine where they were showing off the five ranger toys, the four baddies (Goldar, Baboo, Squatt, and King Sphinx), and the Megazord. It said this show was coming to Fox Kids and in Oct a Green Ranger would be showing up. It looked and sounded cool.

A few days later, I saw a commercial on Fox for it and screamed, "I WANT TO SEE THAT!!" Then they premiered DotD on a Saturday morning (I believe it was in Aug) and loved it. The next Sat they aired the pudgy Pig episode, which was pretty good to. Then the show went to week days and started over with DotD, but I enjoyed it so much I did not care. And then the green ranger appeared and the show went from being amazing to my favorite show on television at that time and what I wanted the toys from most of all through most of Zeo.

By Zeo, I lost the interest in having the big combining mechas since there were 5inch one pieces available for a fraction of the price (and when you are only earning an allowance of $10 a week, price comes into play a lot), but I still loved the show. Unfortunately, Turbo started to lose me, especially with Beast Wars kicking so much ass. PRiS is where I stopped buying the toys as I got sick of having to buy new toys every year (little did I know this would become a thing nowadays for me) as I pretty much stopped getting them just before the Delta Megazord premiered.

I also stopped watching the show religiously during LG and have yet to see every episode to every series after. I did try to watch at least the premier episode and the final episodes but there are still series that I have not seen even those to. I have caught a couple episodes of LSR, Time Force and Wild Force, and I think I have seen the ending to those, but I'm not sure. I know I have not seen anything beyond episode 2 to both JF and RPM, and I gave up on MF after 3 episodes and SMF after the first.

OH, and I loved even the MMPR movie when I was a kid. In fact, one of my friends acquired a copy recorded from the theater and gave it to me as a present because my parents wouldn't take me to see the movie again and I watched it on a weekly basis despite its horrible video quality. I hated VHS even as a kid because of its terrible video quality, but I did not care when it came to that movie.
