Different

have been a Power Rangers fan off and on for the past 13 years. Over those 13 years the Power Rangers have gone from cultural phenomena to cult classic and has had its ups and downs in quality. This time around it has bottomed out when it comes to quality. This is with out a doubt in my mind the worst ranger series in memory. The acting is terrible, even for a children's show, the storyline is weak at best, and the characters are laughable attempts at rehashing some of the great characters of old, namely Bridge. Some basic problems: 1) Constant breaks in accent with Chip and Madison (Is what you get when you go for local over quality) 2) What's with the Harry Potter getup? Are they trying to get sued by JK Rowling? 3) Again with the reluctant Red Ranger. Since pink didn't like her color, why not make her the reluctant ranger 4) A sixth ranger at the beginning, and the bad guy turned good storyline starting so soon. WTH 5) A regression to the 1993 to 1996 cheese ball PR series, instead of continuing with the growth and maturity that PR received over the years with the seriousness of In Space, Time Force et AOL. Disney has failed to live up to its commitment it should fell towards the fans of the show. The failure to produce any sizable DVD collection, the failure to grow the show, the failure to compete any sizable resources to the show and the failure to use quality actors have all been shortcomings of the Rangers series since Disney took over. Disney has screwed up far to many things, and now they are screwing up the much beloved Power Rangers.
