No, the reason she wasn't back for the Lightspeed Rescue crossover was a contract issue. She was even on set and in costume, but there was some kind of contract thing that prevented her from appearing on camera.

Makes me wonder, what wss the falling out related to? I know it was during the LSR crossover. Honestly though, why call it lost galaxy? They didnt even go there until the end.

Yeah. From what I've gathered, there was a huge pay dispute during the Lightspeed Rescue team-up, which lead him to disappear. However, he did come back as a favor to the producers for Forever Red, with his scenes being added after the main filming.

32 episodes into Power Rangers: Lost Galaxy
- Damon and Kai still do fucking nothing.
- Maya is more or less a walking viewing globe.
- Leo is one of my favorite Red Rangers now. He's a bunch of actual emotions, and has a huge sense of justice. And he also throws himself into a fucking blind rage whenever something goes horribly wrong. Such.. as...
- ...Kendrix. Kendrix, Kendrix, Kendrix... The most adorable and level-headed rangers so far in the brand ended up becoming my favorite Pink Ranger ever. And then there's her death... One of the most emotional and outright depressing scenes in Power Rangers (Hell, in Children's Television as a whole) and it's honestly something I didn't expect from the In Space crossover.
- No seriously. Anyone who says Kimberly or that chick from Time Force is the best Pink Ranger ever? Kendrix says "Fuck you".
- I'm torn as hell about Karone being the new Pink Ranger. Yeah, it's a redemption subplot, but it seems like the sloppiest and laziest possible decision in the series. Don't believe me? Check out her morph stock footage when you get the chance. Saban just pasted her head on top of Kendrix's. At least she still wears nothing but leather... mmmmmhmmhmmmmm.
- Magna Defender's subplot got wrapped up pretty fucking quick. It's a shame that the powers are in the hands of Bland McGeneric now.
- So yeah... this series is definetely dark as hell. Between the Mass Genocide and backstory of the Magna Defender, to the onscreen deaths of Magna Defender's son AND the Pink Ranger of the series? You've got some massive balls, Saban. Massive. Fucking. Balls.

Place your bets now! Which series will it take for Secretcode to ultimately crack and give up on this stupid as hell quest?

Kimberly doesn't hold a candle to Kendrix or Jen. Don't let Linkara's nostalgiavision on her tell you otherwise.
Kendrix is my personal favorite pink ranger as well, but Jen is a close contender...

Lost Galaxy is a nice little series. Tends to suffer from "Not In Space Syndrome," but I still like it.

decepticusprime · 09-14-2012, 04:03 AM

Secretcode....my bet is operation overdrive is the series that makes you throw in the towel. But by then, you're so close to the end, you may as well stick.it out since jungle fury and rpm are good

My guess is Ninja Storm will be the breaking point.

ZeoRangerV · 09-14-2012, 07:04 AM

Yeah, I'd definitely place Ninja Storm as the franchise's lowest moment.

Secretcode · 09-14-2012, 08:12 AM

I liked Ninja Storm when it aired. Ninja Storm has NOTHING on Operation Overdrive...

Quick update, as I usually don't like doing updates episode by episode:
- Dammit Leo, keep your goddamn shirt on. It's bad enough you rip it off every damn episode in the opening, but come on. This has to be like the eighth Shirtless Leo so far.

I'm still going with Vida on this one.

As much as I'd have preferred to have more Cassie, I do think this was a good cap to Karone's storyline.
