Storyline

The most evil forces of the universe (Rita & Zedd, the Machine Empire and Divatox) have formed an alliance with the monarch of all evil, Dark Specter. With Zordon as his prisoner, Dark Specter will use Zordon's powers to spread evil across the universe. Meanwhile Cassie, Ashley, Carlos and T.J. (4 of the 5 newest power rangers) have journeyed into space and teamed up with Andros, a human from the space colony of KO-35, in the mission to rescue Zordon. On their way they battle the forces of Dark Specter's most loyal servant, Astronema, the princess of evil. She and her army of monsters, star-fighters and Quantrons will stop at nothing to prevent the rangers from reaching Zordon.

Trivia

Onyx, a desert planet with a western style town on it, makes its debut. It's the hub of evil space aliens, where dozens of old and not yet seen monsters can be seen hanging around the tavern. Among the recognizable monsters there are Quantrons, Tengas, Octophantom, Sinister Simian, Batarax, the Snow Monster from "Storybook Rangers," Dischordia's dress form, Marvo the Meanie, Psycho-Monster Yellow, Piranhatrons, a Chromite, a Cog, a Z-Putty, Coralizer, Punchabunch, Stag Beetle, Dreadfeather, a Varox, an unnamed Cicadia monster, and even the unnamed white smudgy monster from "Aliens Rangers of Aquitar (1)". Aside from numerous alien humans and mutants, a few suits from Beetleborgs (like Triplesaurus Rex, Terror Bear, the Stego Dreg), and even a Maggot from Masked Rider are also seen. Also, there was a monster that had the body of Hammerhands and the hands of Mean Screen.

5. 4. 3. 2. 1!

After the Turbo Rangers, T.J., Carlos, Justin, Ashley, and Cassie lose the Command Center and their powers, they must go off to space to find some new hope. Justin, the kiddy Blue Turbo Ranger, stays behind, leaving the other four rangers to go off into space. When they arrive on a spaceship, they meet the Red Space Ranger, Andros, who reluctantly gives them powers to help fight other evils. We find out some really cool stuff that's a little different from the other PR series, but in a good way! The new team is sure to be remembered for many years to come! Andros will always be one of my favorites, next to Tommy and Jason.
