It just went offline. But now it's back. :|

This was a great Astronema and Carter marathon with other stuff in between.

Seriously, this is the most fun I've had marathoning anything. Memes, chat, nostalgia, and behind the scenes trivia made this worth a go. We got three entertaining threads out of it and this went by a lot better than I think any of us thought.

Can't believe they've managed to keep this thing going. I was expecting it to end in the middle of the night after S1 Re-version. Jesus....

They didn't show my poem clip right before the beach scene. :-(

Oh well. Man, what a ride. Thank you to everyone for all their knowledge! It made the stream way more enjoyable. That and the research I did before jumping into OT2 blew my mind. I came into this knowing that that shows used footage from japan but that's it. Didn't know about Zyuranger, Dairanger and all the others (nor did I know about the footage use from Dairanger for MMPR).

Watching this stuff together was a brand new experience. TV might never be the same for me. I turned it on last night and immediately thought to myself, "Wait where's the chat?" When it dawned on me I laughed but then i wished I had a chat. lol

I wonder what twitch presents will show next.

Edit: Wait, if you reload its back to showing clips. lol

Really just want it to end now, but I guess they're gonna keep showing clips till the end date they announced? Which is still like 2 more days.

Three threads, fucking incredible. I'm very proud of Power Rangers GAF, hahaha

It was a good time, fellas! You new/returners gonna migrate to the TokuGAF thread?
 
Yep, great time all around. I didn't like some of the time slots but the memes and chat were worth it. I'm not sure if any other show could pull off something quite like this, but I'm willing to see what Twitch pulls out next. Probably the first time I've legit marathoned something and it was a blast... though it's time to get my 2 weeks back.

In the beginning I wasn't expecting to stick around like I did, but around the first cast change the appeal in watching these again really showed itself. Interesting facts all around and some nice discussion. Funnily enough I sorta dropped off around the same time I did when originally watching (mid-Mystic Force), but I definitely want to go back and catch the rest of RPM and Dino Charge at the very least.

Supertrain is love, Supertrain is life.

I'm hoping whatever Twitchpresents does next isn't too far off. They can really leverage this and have something great.

I know movie rights are a bitch but I'd love to watch the Mortal Kombat movies with twitch lol

So do we get to keep our Ranger helms if we edited our appearence? Not the emojis but the ones next to our names. Lucked out with the red ranger

Being owned by Amazon, I bet they could work something out. Especially with it being event programming and not free on-demand viewing.

This was a really awesome event that Twitch did, it was fun rewatching some of my favorite (and least favorite) Power Rangers series with everyone. And thanks to this stream I finally discovered RPM, a PR series that's simultaneously awesome but also saddening as it shows the potential the franchise has when the people behind it handle the material with care.

Overall, I don't regret being into Power Rangers for the duration of my adolescence at all. There were some really awesome seasons over the years that I'd forgotten about. If I had to make a top 5, it would be:
1. In Space
2. RPM
3. Ninja Storm
4. Time Force
5. Lightspeed Rescue

My favorite memes from the chat are probably "MOOOOOOOOOOOOM NEW TOYS" "MOOOOOOM GET THE CREDIT CARD" or "_____________ AFK" Can't wait to see what TwitchPresents streams next, hope we get to do another marathon experience like this.

Always wondered how people got Ranger names next to their names. Was it a perk for subscribers?

Welp the stream seems to have finally ended. What a great run even if half the seasons were mediocre or worse.

Now to reread all 3 threads

Best zord combination sequence goes to Turbo / CarRanger, IMHO. The only thing it's missing is more "gearshift porn". Connecting the cars by drifting is pretty awesome.

It's easily the most kinetic zord sequence, and is one of the few that is able to combine without magic flying powers (two prominent others being the OG megazord and the lightspeed rescuezord).

Those re-edited season 1 clips actually hurt my feelings.

The show is already dripping with 90's nostalgia cheese. Gilding the lily is just in bad taste.

Gonna have a nap and then start In Space on Netflix.

I can't believe this went on for two weeks, where the hell did my life go.

Yea. I'm sad it ended though. But it had to at some point. Now I can catch up on my other shows that I put on hold for two weeks to watch this lol.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Now that it's over, come join us in the annual TokuGAF thread. PR discussion mostly happens around new material (which there won't be any of for a while, thanks Nickelodeon), the rest is on Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, GARO, Ultraman and whatever else.

If you want to watch Ninja Steel, I believe Nick.com has all the episodes up, but don't quote me on that

I stalk the TokuGAF thread every once in a while, I'd be in there more but I need to watch the current shows to actually participate in discussion. So far the only thing I've been able to get into was GARO, super-awesome show and Akibaranger a few years back.
