      That just makes me wonder why Z and Syd weren't promoted. They both keep their colours, leaving green vacant. In the comics someone named Lina takes the green spot, which would mean this new girl outranks the two who helped defeat the Trubian Empire. I honestly don't understand why.

    19:25 I think the A-Squad choosing to join the bad guys was a sign that they were too much like Sky was at the beginning - they had some sort of superiority complex and liked 'winning' too much to fight what seemed a losing battle. Maybe that's why Krueger spent so much time helping Sky to realise he was a self-absorbed jerk, Krueger had noticed that the A-Squad were developing a bad attitude (even though he didn't see how bad it would get) and he didn't want Sky to go the same way.

    I love that little moment between Boom and Jack, tbh. For some reason, the way they underplay it works perfectly, Boom considering being the Pink Ranger and honestly saying "True" with Jack nodding his head quietly saying "yeah". It's hard to explain, but it feels so realistic, like two people actually talking, that it makes the humour all the more funny to me.

  • @BBmetalhead04

    I think what makes Omega Ranger disappointing is that there's story potential for him, but it's never fleshed out. They could've emphasized how he feels out of place among the team since he comes from a time where he and Nova are the only rangers around. Or they could've given him a story line in which he begins to lose his humanity since he is stuck in Ranger form and light form.

    To credit the A Squad, I doubt their decision was made lightly. Considering the span of time they were gone, we can assume they spent the vast majority of the series in Grum’s “care.”
    By that I of course mean torture, until they eventually broke. Considering Bridge’s reading of them at the beginning of the series, it’s possible they were frustrated with SPD to begin with. Probably been in the fight for a good while, especially considering their disposition. They act like soldiers, not cops. For the first time, we may be looking at a team of Rangers who simply lacked the will to continue the seemingly unending battle. It’s almost tragic, really.

Both Shredder & Gruumm are warlords driven by a personal hatred of the good guys (namely the mentor figure of each group) & they both work with/for a brain-like alien (Kraang & Omni) that acts as the real power behind the throne who provides the warlords with the resources they need for their empires, in return Kraang & Ok I commission Shredder & Gruumm to build them a new body.

      Shame he didn't, would've been interesting to see how he would've done the Omega Ranger. But here's some of My Ideas on how to Fix the Character:
      1. Don't have him be Sam from the Future. Instead have him be a Separate Character who is from an SPD Branch in another Galaxy transferred to the Earth One due to, oh let's say, reckless behaviour.
      2. I get that due to Budget Issues they could only get just a Voice Actor for Omega, but that's no excuse not to use him. Explain his inability to demorph due to his Morpher Glitching, meaning he can only be a Ball of Light or in Ranger Form.
      3. Give him a more Prominent Role in the Series, have a few Focus Episodes on him. E.g., have "Zapped" be his Episode instead, having him Team up with the Rangers for an Undercover Sting where he almost screws things up. Maybe have him contribute more in other Episodes too.
      4. Have the OmegaMax Megazord join the S.W.A.T. Megazord in the Final Fight against Omni (that Battle was pretty much Original Footage). In the End, have Omega's Morpher fixed, meaning he can finally demorph and he stays with B-Squad instead of going back to his Old SPD Branch.

    @taylormansonshadicstorm9008 9 місяців тому +4

    Fun fact: In the comics, it was revealed that JJ Oliver, the son of Tommy, actually joined SPD and became the third SPD Green Ranger. The thing is, as seen in the end of SPD, Bridge became the Blue Ranger after Sky was promoted to Red Ranger. Later, in Hyperforce, the character, Lina Song was introduced, who replaced Bridge as the Green Ranger. Following on from that, as seen in Once a Ranger, Bridge becomes the SPD Red Ranger. This is because Commander Birdie retired as head of SPD, as Commander Cruger took his place, with Sky being promoted to the head of SPD Earth Branch, with Bridge becoming the new SPD Red Ranger and Sky becoming the SPD Deka Ranger (the name based on the Sentai Season SPD was adapted from), with Lina becoming the new Blue Ranger. This led to JJ Oliver being brought in as the new SPD Green Ranger, but with one thing making him stand out from the other rangers, that being that he has his dad’s Dragon Shield.
    Also, there were plans for an SPD Sequel Comic called SPD Fire Squad, which would have involved a special team of Red Rangers, consisting of Bridge as the Red SPD Ranger, Sky as the SPD Deka Ranger, and Jack returning to SPD as SPD Ranger Prime, which is basically the Red SPD Ranger suit with the colours inverted. Unfortunately, it was cancelled.

But, I actually do prefer this actor to be more of an arrogant character than as a hero character in my opinion. Kinda like how I actually prefer Holly Shannon (Leelee Pimvare from Mystic Force) more as an anti-heroine/villain, namely....Camille from Jungle Fury than her being a whiny, spoiled, annoying, pointless bratty daughter of a Vampire Queen. At least when she was Camille, she actually did grow a lot more as a real character in that season.

    I loved the idea of putting their enemies into containment cards. It made the show seem less violent to parents, and provided a way to get a little $$$ from the kids.
    I also LOVE Crougar and Grumm. Crougar while a badass, shows his true power when he one shots all of Mora's monster while matrix walking towards her and in the end gives a nice one liner.
    Grumm also felt awesome. He was very reminiscent of Zedd, except he whined his ass off less than Zedd. He also had history with the Rangers newest Mentor. But something I loved design wise of Grumm, was the fact that even though he hat these pig red cartoony eyes, if you looked closer you could see a pair of Human eyes. I don't know why this makes me like him more, and makes him a bit more scary, maybe because he's closer to a human than we thought or the feeling that it has some sort of symbolism, but I just love the choice in his design.
    But even with all his badassery he could not beat Doggie Crougar.

    Is it odd that Bridge reminds me of Ed from Ed Edd n Eddy, he pretty much does act simliar to Ed (except Bridge isn't dumb and is just quirky), but Bridge does kind of resemble Ed in a way, plus his love for butter just screams "butter toast" for Ed, in a way, Bridge is like the power ranger counterpart to Ed and this is probably how Ed would be like if he was a power ranger, kind of cool to think about, don't you think?

    I really enjoyed SPD. I stopped watching with Zeo as a kid and then I came back when I saw Tommy in Dino Thunder. But when I watched SPD it was even better. I know some fans don't like this show as much (which kind of boggles my mind) but I think it was great. I plan on watching RPM one of these days because it looks good too but this is the best of what I've seen so far in my opinion. SPD was not just good for Power Rangers but it's a legitimately very good for a kids' show. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it.

    • @xgray2012
      @xgray2012 9 років тому +1

      +Hezekiah Ramirez Thank you!!! I'm so glad that I'm not the only one here who actually liked SPD as a standalone Power Rangers season. Plus, the characters of SPD are actually enjoyable to watch and they're so much better than their Sentai counterparts, the Dekarangers, in my opinion.

    • @SpectacularSpiderMan
      @SpectacularSpiderMan 9 років тому +1

    • @xgray2012
      @xgray2012 9 років тому

      ***** Exactly!!!! I mean, seriously....this series is still awesome and it deserves a lot more love from the fans any other season would, despite the number of flaws that it has. So what if it's the first to have the over-usage of those "Kalish-splosions", or if the team-up episodes between the SPD B-Squad and the Dino Thunder wasn't the best?! Big deal!!! What matters to me and possibly other fans who liked this season, regardless is the story, the character developments and the chemistry between the cast.

    • @SpectacularSpiderMan
      @SpectacularSpiderMan 9 років тому +1

      Xaviergray87 precisely. Yeah, the Dino Thunder team up wasn't the best. Part of my problem with Ranger crossovers is that stuff kind of just happens because the plot needs it to happen. It would have made sense to do a Time Force team up with SPD, even if Wes isn't Sky's dad. Sure, it would break the tradition of having a team from a previous season team up with the Rangers for the current season but it would've made more sense since they're both about the future. But yeah, making a future cop version of the Power Rangers was actually quite brilliant. It almost felt like a James Cameron film. The characters were fantastic. Yes, some of them could be arrogant at points but you could always understand where they were coming from when they were. Jack was a perfect red Ranger. The best part about his character is they didn't go for the "underdog becomes the greatest hero ever" cliche. It was more of "fine, I'll get the job done but then I play by my own rules". Also, I liked his relationship with Z. Even though they're friends & are both poor, but both want different things. Also, is it just me or does Z's necklace resemble the Z on Lord Zedd? I also loved Sky & Jack's rivalry. Sky longs to be the red ranger, yet he isn't, Jack doesn't want to be the red ranger but is. The best part was how relatable it was. In just about every Power Rangers season before this (except for maybe Time Force but a lot about the process of picking who gets to be a Ranger isn't really well explained) a bunch of kids who are simply better than anybody else get to be the chosen few to fight a war against some super natural being. Our heroes are usually six (sometimes 5, sometimes even 3) out of 7 billion people in the world to become Power Rangers. But in SPD, training to become a Ranger is as simple as training to join the marines. It really did a great job of establishing what it's like to want feel important in the world.

    • @xgray2012
      @xgray2012 9 років тому +1

      +Spectacular Spider-Man I know, right?!?!??! I mean, in my eyes....Jack is like the ultimate "anti-hero" character. Hell, even one of the best anti-heroes in Power Rangers history next to the Magna Defender (I), Eric Meyers/The Quantum Ranger, even freaking Camille from Jungle Fury is considered to be an anti-heroine and she was a villain character. *Camille!!!!*
      Oh and BTW, yes, the "Z" on Z's necklace does look a lot like the "Z" on Lord Zedd's staff. Probably a good Easter egg nod to season 2 to in Space. I'm just sayin'!!

    The stories and arcs in SPD are very well written. Not as thoughtful as time force, but more along the lines of Dink Thunder or Wild Force.

During those moments I reminded that these people are acting for a kid’s audience

      @xgray2012 8 років тому +4

      Are you serious?! You mean to tell me that you didn't even bothered to do your own damn research and look up the actor's name, Dwayne Cameron?! Of course, both Drew and Tyzonne look the same because they are both played by the same actor. Power Rangers, most particularly, the Disney-era has been known for re-using note-able actors from New Zealand and Australia to play multiple roles in earlier and later seasons of the show from 2003-2011. That's how versatile all of those actors were back then and also, confusing and downright insulting as to why Saban didn't even bothered to get in contact with fans in New Zealand and Australia to look for them and make several guest appearances in Super Megaforce because of sheer laziness. Seriously, all of these actors were very versatile for this franchise.

    • @xgray2012
      @xgray2012 8 років тому +3

      I'm sorry for my outburst. But, I'm dead serious, man. You can not just acknowledge that this show has been going on for over 20 years at this point, and act like you don't recognize certain actors who have been known for playing multiple roles in earlier and later seasons for the franchise. For example, Grant MacFarland (Sensei Kanoi Watanabe & Lothor) from Ninja Storm, was also Daisuke in the episode, "The Tangent Gate" from Samurai/Super Samurai, Holly Shannon (Camile) from Jungle Fury was also Leelee Pimvare from Mystic Force, James Gaylyn (Col. Mason Truman) from RPM, was also the voices of Zeltrax and Golden Rod from Dino Thunder, and was the past sensei of the Wind Ninja Academy in "Samurai's Journey" from Ninja Storm and most recently, Shelby's father in Dino Charge/Dino Supercharge. And Rene Naufahu (Mentor Jii) from Samurai/Super Samurai was also Emperor Grummn from SPD. See?! Instead of just acting like you're the only one who doesn't know that certain characters were played by the same actor. You should be looking for this person up and if you're lucky, you should tell this person..."Thank you for all the hard work that you did for making this character be a part of my childhood!"

    The A-Squad Rangers are the second Ranger characters after Power Ranger's Lightspeed Rescue's Titanium Ranger to be of American design with no Super Sentai counterparts and are the first Ranger team to be wholly American-made. Their Megazord is based on the final giant robot used in the final episodes of Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger, which was piloted by an alien criminal in that version.
    Future US-only Ranger teams include Jungle Fury's Spirit Rangers (who started evil but became good) and the Hyperforce Rangers.
