Justin builds a homing device out of a radio.
Holy hell. Billy needed access to all this pseudo science BS and command center tech.
Justin just needs a radio and a soldiering gun.

Did you just praise someone from Turbo?

In all likelihood, I'm gonna be doing that a lot.

I'm 4 episodes in, and the worst things about this series so far are the former Zeo/MMPR actors.
If you let Linkara's History of the Power Rangers color your opinion, you should really re-watch it yourself. He's so rabidly butthurt over this series he brought up and pointed out every minor problem (Issues he blatantly let slide (Or straight up refused to bring up) during MMPR and Zeo) just to color Turbo as worse than it actually is.

Turbo is not a good show, don't get me wrong. But it's not bad for a PR series considering what came before and what's to come later.

Yeah, Turbo isn't unwatchably bad as everyone makes it to be. I mean I find Divatox annoying and her monsters give me nightmares, but that's my only complaint. Otherwise, I just find yhe show completely weird aside from tthose awesome last two episodes.

Also the best episode with the old cast is 14. Solely because of the bizarre attitude shift Adam pulls near the end due to Sentai footage.

[Matrixbeast]

I'm honestly surprised at how watchable Turbo is turning out to be, compared to just downright terrible MMPR and Zeo were.

Everyone is free to their own opinion and you can call Turbo the worst series ever.
But, 10 episodes in, right now all I ask is for you to form your own opinion, not to let the internet form it for you.

Just marathoned 14 episodes of PR Turbo.
There are 3 huge issues, two of which are commonly brought up, one which is strangely ignored.

First are the villains. I hate Elgar. Divatox is an idiot, and Rhygog and the other one never do anything.
The Piranhatrons are lame, and the monster designs leave a lot to be desired.

The second are the plots of the week. They're completely dumb. Granted, they're on par with MMPR's plots of the week, so I don't have much issue with them as a whole. Doesn't make them less stupid

And the third is the acting. JDF and Johnny Bosch turn in particularly weak performances, Catherine isn't doing much better. Only Nakia and Blake turn in adequate to passable performances.
It's annoying because Blake performs one bad scene as Justin and the internet is reeling and mocking him as terrible, but JDF and Johnny consistently turn in crap after crap after crap and they get free passes.
And I love Johnny. His skills do improve and he's a cool guy, but in Turbo era, he was doing a crap job, but "Oh, Justin said this one line awkwardly he's thus the worst character ever." :I

Anyway, 4 more episodes until the Passing of the Torch and I get TJ and the like. Hopefully they're better. I know during In Space Selwyn and co do decent performances, but I'm not sure on Turbo.

[Matrixbeast]

Okay, finished Passing the Torch part 1 and 2.
Decent episodes. Got introduced to TJ, who needs an acting coach, and Cassie, who desperately needs acting lessons.
That aside, it was...Eh. Watchable. I liked the flaming car.

Also,

I've never one to be overly critical of the MMPR/Zeo cast (I know they aren't the best actors, but I deal with it) but I agree when it comes to Turbo Justin seems to run rings around them. Its almost like since they all know they were leaving they just decided to phone it in for the rest of their run.

The big changeover is actually where the acting starts to get better. Plus Hilary Shepard Turner comes back as Divatox so things pick up a little bit on the villain side too.

I need to stomach MMPR and Zeo to give them a proper analysis to see if their acting is actually better or if nostalgia has given them a free ride, but Justin is easily better than 3/4 of his fellow rangers.

Anyway, Cassie's acting is on par with JDF and Johnny's, meaning it's not that good. TJ could use some work, and Ashley and Carlos are average (Billy/Zach levels, not good, but not terrible). They just don't get enough lines for me to really pay attention or notice it, these last 3 episodes have been rather TJ and Cassie centric.
