Anyone follow Super Megaforce? by son_of_heaven176 on 2014-02-23 02:36:00 UTC Reply

If so, then you might have noticed the seemingly lazy writing and production that went into this episode. They blatantly use a Star Trek console, the three Ranger teams used in this episode should not exist in this continuity, and the pacing at the end is ridiculous! Granted, the charges would not be worthy of a mission if this were a fanfic, but am I the only one on the Board to think that some thought could have been put into, inter alia, whether to produce this episode in the first place?!

Simple Explanation for that... by y2k890 on 2014-03-08 04:42:00 UTC Reply

The Dairanger suits were planned to be used in Lost Galaxy as the original warriors who pulled out the Quasar Sabers. But Valerie Vernon's illness forced them to scrap that idea, and reintoduce Karone.

I lost track of them when they dropped Mighty and Morphing from their title and added Turbo.

Yes, I'm that old.

With that said, the writing on the show has never been award winning with plots or dialogue. Heck, they couldn't even construct the same type of chest shield for the Green Ranger as they did in Japan. Tommy's was /sewn/.

I remember writing a fan fiction in junior high [that has never seen the internet] and thinking, "This is about the same level as on the show!" and being happy about it.

The show has always been cheap and I have a feeling that since it is a cash cow, that's not going to change any time soon.

I'm also a child of the 90s, but I followed the series a lot longer than that, stopping before Mystic Force. Megaforce caught my attention, I think because it was trying to recapture the same spirit as the original. My problem is not that the show is cheap--it is a kid's show after all, but that that particular episode struck me as utterly bad! If it were a fanfiction, this episode would definitely be worth a snarking at the Library.

"I'm also a child of the 90s,"

That's just it... I was a child of the 80s. Teen of the 90's, that's why MMPR didn't hold me as long as it did you.

I'm one of older ones on this board. I was in my twenties when this board came to be.

Eru, I feel old.

If I'm doing my math right...that means that you're in your 30s now, if not your 40s!

I do think a Tv show should Keep track of its own coniuntey though.
