So the finale aired and...
Based on descriptions, I’d say it’s an okay finale. On par with Samurai for the Neo Saban era’s 2nd best. Dino Charge had a strong front while Ninja Steel did have its moments (Aiden arc), so many wasted plot lines all over the map. Both finales end with them becoming one with the Nexus. It was almost expected to be as simple as that.
Props to Odius for being better than Galvanax. I actually like Odius a bit and she is one of the better characters in the more recent years. Heckyl still holds up better for me, but honestly I’m not sure how Ninja Steel could be changed.

It was pretty lame... good execution but I wasn't impressed with Brax, but the oversaturation of fartage was alright.
Brax acted and sounded ridiculous whether or not he was pretending to be sitting duck. Never saw him as a viable threat.

Lately, I decided to revisit Power Rangers by looking through the lense of "ranger color" centric episodes. I know that growing up, there were certain episodes that may have been "Green With Evil" or "Countdown To Destruction", but nonetheless have made an impact on me till this day. I always felt that an episode such as Time Force's "Worlds Apart" said so much about Wes and his choice to live his life and not follow in his father's footsteps. That was not only a strong message but also part of the reason why he's one of the best reds for me (and many others). So I tried to come up with focus episodes for pink, yellow, green/black and blue, and I realize that some of these are more obvious than others, but I'm struggling in particular with yellow. Any thoughts on your personal color-centric episodes? Surely the responses will vary greatly. Here's some of mine which I'll update: RED: Worlds Apart - Time Force BLUE: TBD BLACK/GREEN: Always A Chance - In Space YELLOW: Sam, Part I/II - S.P.D. PINK: The Power Of Pink - Lost Galaxy 6TH RANGER: TBD

Let's make the blonde even blonder!
Yep, very reminiscent of Ronny. It'll do but I'm starting to think blonde is a bit predictable.

I thought it was a great episode.
Nice work all the way around.

Having just read the descriptions for episodes 17-19, how are they gonna wrap up the season. It doesn't feel like it's building up to anything big. Sounds like If you watched Dimensions In Danger, you have seen everything worth watching this season. Sledge must be back for the finale. Can’t imagine the show will leave us hanging, but then again... this is the franchise with ‘an explanation’ for everything.

Hard to say which one was the best.
I have a soft spot for the "Legendary Battle" but it's my least favorite...
Forever Red and Once A Ranger were well done, and arguably, the latter was the saving grave for Operation Overdrive. If there is a reason to open the Operation Overdrive DVD case, about 90% of the time it's because of that episode.

So far, 9, 10 and 11 have been good episodes.
One of the better executions of this classic plot.

Yeah... how did Tommy escape?
The blasts came from nowhere... am I... missing something? Felt that scene lacked, but overall my mind was blown a bit with the duel.

Makes a bit of sense.
Hey, great seeing Kat and Rocky! Tanya, would love to have seen Zeo Ranger II.

No Turbo Red... not sure if that was intentional.
I love seeing Tommy like this. Not since Forever Red has Tommy had a significant role in an episode.

Figures it was Koda... having him talk would give it away.
Plus... we all know that these 3 teams have crossed dimensions before. Whether it be in season or part of a movie.
