I thought some really good stuff came out of IS to be honest, like the plot twist and the finale.
Your missing out on the LR-WF. I think Time Force is the best PR season, up there with Dino Thunder for me. Wild Force is also great, it's underrated in the fanbase. JF is really good too, and I've heard RPM's great. |

Watched the first two episodes of Dino Thunder. It wasn't bad. Serious cases of old-looking-teenagers and the most fake-ass dino CGI I've seen (too much cgi in general) but still pretty decent. Definitely better than Dino Charge.
The suits are pretty great on both sides. I guess I'd blame that on Abaranger more than Dino Thunder itself, but still a boon. Very cool villains they've got there. Didn't exactly hook me the way RPM did (the high school setting is like, seriously cramping my enthusiasm) but it's the only PR besides that one that has looked worthwhile so far. May check out the rest. |

I actually think DT is one of the greatest PR seasons ever. I may be biased because I grew up with it and looked up to the three of them, but it's still a great season.

I had a hard time getting into DT than most PRs, mainly because our protagonists just didn't interest me at all. They kind of felt like MMPR 10 years later with how it portrayed high schoolers (Though I'll give them that they were a hell of a lot closer).
For me, DT didn't hook me until Trent's story arc got moving.

Yeah, I do agree that the DT rangers are a little cookie cutter in mold(Conner being the Jock, Ethan being the nerd, Kira being the Avri- yeah I'm not going to say it) but I really do like them. Kira's one of my favorite Yellow Rangers ever(Actually could be number 1, I really admired Dustin and her as a kid, and Maya later), Ethan's in my top 3 and Conner's one of my favorite reds.
It seems that people tend not to like the DT rangers unless you kinda grew up with the series from what I've read. |

A big problem is just that there isn't a lot of substance to the characters and both the overarching story and their personal stories are rather weak.
So it's easier for people who saw it originally to look back on it fondly and rewatch it and enjoy it, versus newcomers to just dive into it and have a hard time seeing all the charm. It handles things a lot better than Ninja Storm did, but kind of fumbled with a lot of similar problems, I felt.

Mezogog was easily the best PR created villain since Astronema.

I'll respectfully disagree because Ransik happened.

My son and I began watching the original MMPR starting with season 1. We're 2 episodes into the five-parter where Tommy shows up.
I can see why kids thought he was a big deal back then. Up until now, the rangers never seemed to really deal with a major threat. This allowed the "silly" factor to weigh more heavily. But now, the rangers have an actual fight on their hands, where using the Megazord won't necessarily save the day. While there are still laughable moments, the stakes are a bit more higher...giving the series a temporary dark undertone. |
