I wish Amy would join these guys more often, I love seeing them all together. May Thuy Trang continue to Rest In Peace. ❤️
Thuy Trang was a very charming, lovely young woman. May she rest in peace
You left out the guy who play Tommy
Psh. Screw Amy. She never liked attending cons or even rehashing mmpr. Then she wanted to release a music album... so she put on the costume to market.
I Have a Question How did Walter lose his finger on his Right Hand?
Why mention Thuy in this video?
Adam morphing with the broken mastodon morphed in Lost in Space was one of my favorite PR moments ever as a kid. Still to this day is so bad ass
Same. It was epic. I like how he got his redemption in Operation Overdrive. His power was restored. He was awesome in that.
Agree it was epic
Lost in space?
@@dbog5214 Pretty sure I was watching lost galaxy when I posted this and combined them lol
@@ashtonhaggitt216 lol
Walter Jones still looks young af
Thought the same thing. Black don't crack 💪🏼
@@mulattovanguard yessss
That's crazy 🤯
Hip hop keto is the key lol
the mastadon 't age
I never thought in a million years I would see the OG Power Rangers Austin and Walter onstage with their replacements Johnny and Karan.
Ditto
To be fair Karan didn't replace either of them
Mostly johnny and Walter..
Power rangers were the superheroes in the 90's. RIP Yellow & White Ranger.
One of the great things about being a ranger fan is how great the ranger actors/actresses are to us all and how much they appreciate the fandom
@trying not to give up Johnny is Ichigo Kurosaki 😁
Austin is such a leader and Johnny is hilarious, Walter is wise and Karen is the life of the party.
Each respective statement is true, but Johnny led in his own ways.
So spot on.
their PERFECT!!
Austin is a great leader, honestly had he not left the show, his character Jason woulda still been the leader.
I love the OG cast.
But these 4 have great energy together would have made a good team
This was really great. Everyone shined here. And we couldn't have asked for a better Yellow Ranger and Black Ranger after Walter and Thuy. The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers set a standard and bar that can't be reached. Really appreciated this panel. One of my favorites.
They still bring me back to my childhood. 👍🏽
The meeting of the black rangers, love it
Jason, Zack, and Adam were always in my top favorite rangers besides Tommy. This was a cool panel enjoyed seeing them again.
It still hurts man. JDF was my childhood hero. I loved Tommy growing up. Hell, was still a fan into adulthood. Losing him hurt in a way no celebrity death has ever done. Like a part of my childhood had died.
Jason and Adam were great as well. Not to take anything away from any of the others, but yeah. Definitely still reeling from the shock of losing JDF.
I always get sad when I watch stuff like this because Thuy never got to experience any of this. She never got to know how much of an icon she would become. To see the kids that loved her almost 30 years ago grow up and tell her how much she meant to them. She passed away just 7 years after she left the show at only 27 years old. She never had the opportunity to return to the show for the big anniversary style episodes either. We've never been able to see the original rangers have a reunion. And sadly JDF is gone now too so now the reunions are going to be even smaller. But at least he got to enjoy the fandom at it's fullest more than anyone in the cast got to. He knew how much he truly meant to the fans. She never did and that just makes me really sad.
May her sweet soul rest in peace. She deserves so many thank yous from us. Thank you Thuy Trang, thank you so much 🙏
Thank you Thuy Trang we love you💛 RIP to you and Jason David Frank 💚 Once a ranger always a Ranger
I saw and even met all of them except Johnny Bosch at a Power Morphicon a few years ago. JDF wasn’t there either for some reason. Austin was really nice. Walter Jones was funny as hell. He was always my favorite, especially as a black male of course. Karan was very upbeat and always smiling. Real sweet woman. Loved talking about her time on the show. I met Steve Cardenas too. Nice guy but he was clearly on a mission to sell his merchandise. Luckily I liked his character enough to get pitched into buying something from him lol. Hope to go to the next one soon. The MMPR/Zeo/Turbo era is my favorite.
Walter aka Zack was always my favorite! I’m not black but I loved his character/personality in the show growing up.
What an awesome group. Got to chat with them a bit and got some signatures and selfies. You're the man Johnny!
don't ya mean he's the frog?
Remarkable interview! Brings me black to childhood watching Power Rangers. Rest In Paradise Thuy Trang you are truly missed..
Johnny's audition story was by far the best. Such a funny dude..
Very proud of Walter for his answer on Philosophy
I really enjoy these panels. They were all Power Rangers, but they are all such unique individuals.
They all are very interesting people and hearing their stories make me like them more.
Chris Evans good job would people like you to come back now new day of my TV show power rangers cool thanks you guys would be back in time do you feel like you need me soon me and my life back on this day and my day like you would need power rangers you power just hope it is good news right now and we will you get this before you go back
@@chrisevans9688 In English please
@@GLBizzie chris evans I think you would like me wow that day and time do you feel like you would people like you would have now that video is good news power rangers do you do and all that stuff is out would love kids and you power how you feeling today new one is ok with you and how you people will be back in time from home now hope you do you power
I’m glad to see them alive and well
Same here.
And young looking lol
Watching this makes me cry tears of joy 🥲
"You guys got paid?" Damn, really shows how they treated them
@AM3OBA its not a joke they literally didnt get paid
@AM3OBA the sad part because power rangers wasn’t union which means it was unsafe underpaid and long hours
@@AladeenMusic I've heard numerous accounts that Haim Saban was a notorious miser when it came to money. Sucks that he made millions while these kids worked hard and got scraps.
8:17
@@HookedOnSonics518 it’s true that’s the reason why Austin Thuy and Walter left the show and eventually others left later on.
I absolutely love ALL of the Power Ranger actors... my sons introduced me to them and I was hooked.
Johnny Yong Bosch holds a special place with me bcz of his Anime voice-overs... Bleach's Ichigo Kurosaki is my absolute favorite! TriGun's Vash the Stampede is my hard second!
Nice to see those Power Ranger actors on stage as if they had a reunion. Good lord!! They still look a lot sharper now like they were in their early adulthoods.
Thank you for posting this for those of us that could not attend!
You're quite welcome!
@@FandomSpotlite Out of curiosity were you all able to attend the show with Michael J Fox and Chris Lloyd and is it able to be posted?
I attended and recorded this panel too. I have it on my youtube channel.
Karan Ashley's voice is pleasing to hear
These guys are my childhood. Back in a day i thought power rangers were do cool. Johnny was my favorite ranger and later he became my fav voice actor
I’m glad Austin enjoyed his time here in NZ
Forever love them big part of my childhood ❤️🖤🖤💛
Wish Amy and David had been there for this. Double Black Ranger, love them both don't get me wrong. But I miss seeing Amy and David on more panels.
AUSTIN ST JOHN ROCKS AT - AWESOME CON 2021 !!!!
KAren and Austin have such surprisingly good chemistry for never being on screen together. Wish we had Aisha and Jason in the same team.
I fully agree I wish the OGs would return with Aisha replacing Trini due to her death. Teaming up with a current Ranger team
They had chemistry off set. I’m pretty sure they smashed
@Joy Dorsett thanks I’m glad you agree.
Indeed, I feel the same too, mind you karan working with amy jo was just as good. Actually amy jo is my favourite power rangers actress of all time, she was so athletic and agile. There were also episodes when kim aka amy jo was the MVP of the group too. Shows that you can never underestimate the female power rangers cast members, as simple as that really.
@@Grillinnap LOL IF THEY WERE RANGERS ON THE SAME TERAM IM SURE JASON PR WOU LD HAVE A NEW LOVE INTREST
What a great panel!
Whoa The Order is still happening? Awesome
15 years of con appearances and we still have not gotten a full panel reunion of the MMPR cast. All this panel needs is Amy Jo, Katherine Hillard, David Yost and Jason David Frank.
Never happen. Jdf is adamant about who he does cons with. In his contract. A real prick
@@johnnydanger1305 and I don't think he and Austin are still on the best of terms lol
@@jdog34505 what happen between him and Austin?
@@issatagibateh9107 A bit of teenage beef when they were on the show. Mainly its one sided, its just Jason accusing Austin of stuff but as far as I know Austin has never said anything about this and has disparaged Jason Publicly( He even said he's be willing to do a Con with him) Jdf just has a ton of ego and unfortunately we all suffer because of it
@@mewtwo34 was this a long time ago it when this happen
Never fully watched the tv series, but I enjoyed the first three movies and the episodes I saw as a kid. Good times.
This needs thousands of more 👍 likes
legit these are such humble responses to the crowd, such nice people
Thanks for the panel rangers.
My gosh… I love the yellow ranger.. my dream date!
I wish Amy Jo Johnson was there. My first crush!
I wish Thuy Trang was still alive & here. I can already see her on this stage ⚡🗡
Had a lot of time for her too and she was even attractive as the devil too, she was my favourite ever female on power rangers of all time. Her contributions as kimberly were outstanding.
As a kid I thought Zack was a teenager for real but he was at least 22 when the first epoisde aired. If I didn't see power rangers as a kid I would think me and Walter were close to the same age but he's 14 years older.
Dude still looks like a teenager.
Man don’t crack at all
And looks are known to be misleading.
I love you zack (Black Ranger)❤️
Oh my god Austin St. John was my first tv crush ( I remember being in 3rd grade when Power Rangers first premiered). While all the girls in my class where crushing hard on Tommy it was Jason who I watched the show for.
"You're gonna make me millions"
And you, you will win hundreds!
Adam is my favorite Ranger
My favorite is Trent. Oh wait, wrong team.
@@QoQabai658 Eh he’s awesome tho
What I loved about him was he brought a quiet charm to his character and was committed too.
Glad to see these guys today ⚡⚡⚡⚡
It always gets a little awkward during these panels when the 1995 movie gets mentioned. I can tell it still bothers Walter he didn't get a chance to be in the film.
Why wasn't he in it though?
Okay I googled it. They weren't being paid enough.
@@johngumbs2111 they couldn’t get paid more because they weren’t in the union that’s why jason trini and zack were wrote off
@@ObiWanShinobi_ They were young. I'm sure they learned their lesson. In 1995 I was 10 and always thought it was weird that they weren't in the movie. Thanks for the extra information though. I looked over the not being unionized part.
@@johngumbs2111 I got an older cousin who told me that I didn’t know either he also said that lil kid from turbo was actually union and got paid more than the older people
Jason, Zack, Adam, and Aisha
Jonny is lovely met him got his autograph and he signed my pop vynl
I’m not a huge power rangers fan by any means, but to say I wasn’t would be a lie. I lived for this show as a kid.
I think I’d love to meet all the original living rangers, not so much because of what they represented to me then, but because of how down to Earth they are.
It’s different to hear power rangers from power rangers, because for me, power rangers was waking up, throwing my red hoodie on and pretending to be part of the fun after the show stopped.
But for the rangers it was waking up everyday at 5 for a commute to work for 16 hours of labor.
Power Rangers was a literal job lol
Man this is awesome
Karan Ashley is beautiful.
LMAO i love this they are all hilarious
Hard to believe WEJ is in his 50s still looking youthful.
Man, I was in my mid-teens when Power Rangers came out, but I didn't care! I loved it because it had a black kid that was just like me who was a HERO! I LOVED Martial Arts, I LOVED to dance and I was a comic book fan. Suffice it to say I wasn't the most popular kid in school, but seeing someone like me on TV that was hugely popular made me more confident in who I was. Walter/Zack was a role model and as there was nothing else like it in the UK, it was nice at a time in your life when you can be insecure in yourself.
This is the best moment for me Karen is a true inspiration
She looks amazing
@@timskywalker yes she is so kind and nice
She hugs during non Covid times! She did a cameo for my birthday
@@timskywalker that was very sweet of her
She hasn’t done anything to be a “True Inspiration “ she’s not Rosa Parks ,Coretta Scott King, or Kathleen Cleaver instead she was on Power Rangers for a season.
I can't believe Austin actually stood for the WHOLE thing.
He had to take a Shit!🚽
Because he's a power ranger bro ⚡
Im convinced Walter is immortal. Man hasn't aged a day
I love ❤️ all the Legendary Power Rangers! Brad Hawkins reprise his role as Ryan Steele from VR Troopers
Gonna be honest never did like the re casting never felt a connection with them Walter Jones and Austin will always be my originals
I hear u, the show hasn't been the same since Austin, Walter, & Thuy(RIP)left. Then Amy left during season 3.
They contributed to all the parents who have broken tables and chairs because their kids wanted to be Power Rangers and unleashed Karate around the house LOL
Thuy Trang was my representation back in the 90s being they we are both Vietnamese. I admired her a lot. Very sad about her tragic accident.
My husband and I are rewatching the whole series on Netflix and oh boy the nostalgia. The cheesyness and 90s lingo is great 😂
yoooo walter jones looks like he hasnt aged much
Black don't crack ⚡
@@Solitude633 yeppp
It's surreal, Jason and Adam met, but neither Zack nor Jason met Ashley
Zack looks Great!....the rest..are a bit heavier...but look good
Walter hasn't aged a bit ⚡
What is the deal with people commenting on their bodies?
Love this. ❤
Wow Karen gain weight but she still beautiful ❤️❤️ they all look great 😊
She def really pretty!!!
Aisha got THICC boiiiii
DAMN!!!
fat* i corrected you
Just like how we like it ⚡
I gotta check this con out
I read somewhere recently that Amy Jo is writing a comic based on the original team at their current ages. I wonder if she'll be including all of Mighty Morphin seasons 2 and 3 in the story. Personally, I count everyone from Mighty Morphin to Zeo as original rangers. The only series after those I like are Turbo, In Space and Dino Thunder...
Excuse me, but you forgot Justin. He was counted as an original ranger like Jason, Tommy, Kimberly, Billy, Trini, Zach, Aisha, Rocky, Adam, Kat, & Tanya. That makes 12 original rangers. How and why? Because in an episode of a reality show called “My Morphing Life”, it addressed Blake Foster as one of the original Rangers, as well as a MMPR cast member.
Yo Time Force was pretty damn good. I didn't care for Turbo but everything else I agree with.
I love this my childhoooooood! 🤗😭🌈
Lol sounds like fun you guys rock
51:42 - Now i want to listen JDF's part on this :D
You'll have to pray to him for that answer now.
@@crystalwater505 😬
Kinda wish they were in Beast Morphers. Johnny should be a mentor for a season like did tommy.
Nah…Johnny already has a career in anime voice over. He would never come back.
@@VF5 but he did came back for 2 episodes for the 15th Anniversary
Jason was in Beast Morphers the original red ranger & leader shoulda been more than enough mentorship for Beast Morphers.
This video makes me think about all the times I decided not to audition for things because it was too far or had to wait too long 😢
Austin hates Saban lol 😆
Yeah 🤣🤣
Can you blame him?
@@MrAlucard1986 exactly it was the same situation when he produced Ocean dub DBZ first 53 episodes those original English dub actors were extremely talented and criminally underpaid
When Walter said he got requested for that stripper party and hit that dance I was weak 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The FBI were probably geeking out that the Black Ranger was one of them 😂
Dang Walter still looks like a college kid
He's somewhere in his 40's now ⚡
He's in his 50s now
good video
46:05 and 56:43 the reason why JDF (rest his soul) despised ASJ
????
Bruh Austin should get into voice acting
Out of all the ranger s I'd marry the yellow ranger in this panel over the other one s
Yes I know tv Gide is and you all are great ♥️
Rip Jason David Frank
My childhood heroes!!!!!! I was only 5
⚡
"You'll make me Millions!" "and you'll make...some money..." The Foreshadowing. He knew he was fleecing them from.the jump
Karan sounds exactly like Natalie Nunn from Bad Girls Club!
Exactly. We know Natalie would get her butt kicked.
I saw Walter in Space Cases
Lmfao the TV guide
where was ASJ for beast morphers? i just finished the first season and never saw him
Wish trini was still here miss her for trini telaport now for trini
Austin still burning JDF 🤣
Duration?
You can’t blame him though Austin used to brush it off and not say anything while JDF used to constantly say crap about Austin, I think he just had about enough of being the nice guy and firing back for a few times
@@AladeenMusicCan you tell if JDF was lying about anything he said about ASJ? I honestly have no idea. But, if you had to guess, based on anything, what would that guess be? Like, who started the beef? JDF or ASJ?
I whish Thuy could be there... 😞
What is up with Walter Jones's NOT AGING!!!!!? I DON'T GET IT!!!!!
Bruh?1 Zack (Walter Jones) didn't age at all
Black don't crack
ASJ is the king father master. WJ is the man. Karan Ashley is lovely.
What's up awesome what's up Austin for St John and Johnny young
17:46 Guy, the source to PR had already had already been doing the same thing with the suits for seventeen years, how do you think the SS actors felt when they had to suit up? When it was the actors rather than the stunt people that is.
i love the power rangers mighty morphin all over the world and my tire life
