Power Rangers will NOT die!

I think they switched from Americanizing a Japanese show to just making a cruddy American show, but I'm guessing that because it's Disney now, I haven't cared about it since Turbo, maybe before

Actually, just browsing around, they are still using Japanese footage.

 

So it's not totally Americanized.

 

I may be wrong, (try as I might, I couldnt sit through an entire episode) but I think on the episode I watched, there were only 3 Power Rangers instead of the traditional 5 or 6, and they took orders from a talking Gerbil and a 6-foot tall Dog. What happened to Alpha and Zordon? I gave up on the show after the machine empire storyline came to a close.

The short version: They copied the Japanese model - new actors and a new storyline every season - because it's cheaper than carrying actors over every season.

 

The long version: I can't be bothered to explain it, so go to this site for more info.
