I think it has more to do with there wasn't a whole lot of new stuff to look forward to compared to Turboranger, which aired right before it, for people at the time who saw it on TV every week. Heck, the DX robot toys were pretty much same crap, different strokes; core robot, second robot that changes into a jet, base that transforms into a robot, etc. Plus, Winspector was one of its many competitors that year, which was doing well despite its small budget. But mostly it probably had to do with people were fatigued.
