All I know is that that this would've been an adaptation of the 1984-85 Super Sentai series: Choudenshi Bioman.

Now we just need footage of the pilot.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

This fight is lit af wow.

 

[BeatnikGunsoo]

the sentai version of this gekiranger is really really good guys

 

[MHWilliams]

Saban went on record that he pitched what became Power Rangers multiple times over the years, so the idea that he switched series isn't surprising.

 

[MechaX]

Man, the main bad dude is literally buff Anakin Skywalker.

This season feels... weird. Like, it could have been better had they tried a little bit harder in some respects

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

That fight choreography was on point, damn. Was it that good the whole season?

Also, I figured out why the suits look like PJs. It has to be the missing belts.

 

[Baloonatic]

Clip show, booooo.

 

[Midonin]

It's a game show clip show!

A concept that Ryukendo did much better.

 

[Effect]

It's an interesting way of doing a recap episode.

Haven't seen a lot of Jungle Fury but not seeing anything I found find as bad at the moment. However I've just started watching a few minutes ago. Might have to check out the full series on netflix at some point.

Mark Dacascos and Miguel Nunez?!

 

[SDBurton]

Just got home! Down to 11k? Yikes what happened?!

 

[Zap Rowsdower]

RJ's dad is totally Geralt, he even has two swords.

Was there a full pilot? I know there's something because of that Galaxy Rangers promo but a whole episode?

 

[Kard8p3]

Random trivia: The blue Gekiranger also had a twin episode (and he legit had a twin iirc), so it's cool to see that they kept it for JF.

edit: it was a doppleganger, I'm dumb. But it was played by his twin

 

[Boke1879]

Just got home! Down to 11k? Yikes what happened?!

Was around 16k. Then stream died twice within like 5 minutes of itself. Never fully recovered.

I feel like the stream will stay between this and like 15k for the remainder. It's the weekend though so more people might stick around.

 

[jwk94]

In case we didn't cover this before, Michelle Peng is Kat's actor from SPD.

 

[BatDan]

There is, but it's lost. Saban himself probably has a copy in a vault somewhere

 

[MartyStu]

Jesus, these post-SPD shows are really bad.

When does RPM start?

 

[jwk94]

"You've been cancelled!"

Can't help but think they put that line in there because PR was cancelled.

I did not know h had a twin IRL. That's cool.

That's what I read after a quick Google. Could be wrong though.

What's wrong with Jungle Fury?

 

[Kard8p3]

Yup! and the NA version of the monster who made the doppleganger (Dynamir in JF, Shiyuu in Geki) was in the episode with Theo's twin.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Damn, Theo.

 

[Sou Da]

Does Theo's actor do voice work today?

 

[MechaX]

Well look on the bright side, Theo.. At least she gave you a hug!

Rocky has been waiting on that dance rain check for 15 years

To be honest about this show...

I am actually not hating this. I'd watch this before Wild Force, Mystic Force, or Operation Overdrive

 

[jwk94]

Damn, Theo.

Stuck in the rangerzone!

 

[momotroniuity]

Rocky has been waiting on that dance rain check for 15 years

Rocky checks her facebook and she now lives at a retirement home.

 

[Conan-san]

Six eps left; so probaly two or three horus from now before we RPM?

Cause I dunno how much more YGO ZEXEL OP I can take.

 

[jwk94]

Too many tiger spirits is dangerous.

 

[UtterlyPerplexed]

We have a white tiger general, what do we call him?

Whiger ofc

 

[Midonin]

Bad optics on that name.

 

[Kard8p3]

ok I think out of all the Sentai to Power Rangers modification, Suugu/Whiger got screwed hard

 

[David___]

That nepotism

 

[Sou Da]

Look at that fucking Destiny squad.

Yeah, it's been competently executed and it makes solid use of the kung fu theme. It's a huge step up from the cringe and annoyance of the previous two. I'd still only watch it again in something like this marathon as neither the setting, nor the characters, nor the overall plot are particularly compelling to me, but it's in my decent pile.

I'm totally ready for it to be over, though.

 

[FantasyFreak07]

I'm bummed I didn't watch more Ninja Storm.

 

[MechaX]

Was... that the first villain roll call in Power Rangers?

 

[David___]

Was... that the first villain roll call in Power Rangers?

Pretty sure the psychos rangers did one

 

[ShaggsMagoo]

The best morphing activation motion is the Thunder Rangers from Ninja Storm. Discuss.

Spoiler

And by discuss, I mean agree with me.

 

[UtterlyPerplexed]

I think the Psycho Rangers got one.

Gekiranger gave this moment considerably more grandeur as usual, but it's always a delight to see the Phantom Beast General suits. They're some of the best realised villain suit designs in the franchise.

Yes. Perfect balance between flashy and simple

 

[Baloonatic]

I love the jets on the suits.

 

[redmetal86]

What.

 

[WillyFive]

The Kalish era cut Twitch viewership by almost half.

Worst producer, Kalish or Tzachor?

Really? I honestly forgot how those look. Liked the spin from the wind rangers though.

Here you go.

Tzachor, easily, Kalish had some (really) bad ideas but at least he tried...you can't say the same thing about Tzachor.

 

[Sou Da]

Here you go.

Oh that slowdown is damn good.

 

[TWILT]

Dog Ranger so good they showed the same clip twice lmao

I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

 

[Htown]

so are there any good Power Rangers shows left to come? Every time I've tuned in over the last couple of days it has seemed pretty bad

Uhhhh I guess you missed Operation Overdrive like everyone else.
