"Few franchises do anniversary specials better than Power Rangers"
Which explains why most of the anniversary specials are mediocre at best (Legendary Battle, Dimensions in Danger) awful pieces of shit at worst (Once a Ranger, The Beast Morphers... thing)
The best anniversary special ended with a shameless and mind blowingly stupid toy promotion for fuck sake

"The best anniversary special ended with a shameless and mind blowingly stupid toy promotion" Welcome to Power Rangers. First time? "Delirium thy name is Venusaur." But yes, we were supposed to have a final battle between Serpentara and 10 previous megazords from 1993-2002. But Disney had already blown the budget on the production of Reinforcements From The Future and Forever Red, respectively. So, Bandai U.S. had decided to bail out Disney on the production's budget in exchange for promoting the brand new toy for the Wild Force storyline, the Wild Force. Hence why we had that lame ending in Forever Red where Lord Zedd's most powerful machine that blew up an entire planet with one energy blast is now fueled by a nuclear reactor courtesy of the Machine Empire. Just suddenly got its' ass whooped by a freaking measly fancy new super bike. I can understand toy promotion and all, but I have seen better and worse executions of how to promote new toys in Tokusatsu movies and TV shows. Hell, Kamen Rider Fourze did a better job at promoting new toys in his own movies. Same for Kamen Rider Build and Lupinranger VS Patoranger.

Welcome to Power Rangers. First time? Wow, its almost like there's a difference between a show being a glorified toy commercial and shamelessly promoting a new toy that makes no sense (a flying bike destroying Serpentera)

Oh buddy, you are the last person on this forum to be talking about anyone's mental state Especially with all the ranting and non sensical ramblings you do on nearly every post.

^ I dunno about xman's mental state, but you....oh boy. You like to being a contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian. I don't believe in any interesting argument you did or just an interesting opinion except "this show sucks, fans sucks. I'm better than anyone else. Oh, look, somebody is taking a different opinion than mine, I should leave!" If you don't like to get burned, don't stay close to the fire.... EDIT: "Wow, its almost like there's a difference between a show being a glorified toy commercial and shamelessly promoting a new toy that makes no sense" WOW, you just discovered Power Rangers. A glorified toy commercial that shamelessly promotes new toys that don't make sense. You're smart, pal. You should be detective.

You'll get the hang of it someday bud. I realize I'm wasting my time with you. But here let me help you. Example. "Oh no Rangers, Lord Zedd is far too powerful for your dinozords. You'll need new more powerful Thunderzords" Shameless promotion for new toys to be sold? Absolutely. Does it make sense within the context of the narrative? Also yes. Lord Zedd is too powerful. Rangers need stronger zords. And then we have the ending of Forever Red where Serpentera which is established to be uber powerful and dwarves the size of any zord..is destroyed by a flying motorbike. Again, I'm wasting my time with you but maybe a miracle will happen and you'll get it!

Thanks. Finally you're stopping to being a contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian, and have some hope on you. Finally, you're using that thing called brain you have (if you have it).
"I'm wasting my time with you"
Do you have time? Wow. You really surprised me. With your big words, narcissitic mentality and smart brain, I though you were resolving murders or something like that in real life. Really? Why are you wasting your time here, if you can use your huuuuge intellect to solve the problems of the world? I'm glad you're here, resolving the problems of the Power Rangers franchise. Instead of, you know, finding the cure of all the diseases of the world and such.

Anyways, back to the actual topic of this thread. Now, some of the choices on the video I can understand. But, I do seem to recall that there are a few episodes in the franchise that I considered to be more underappreciated, nowadays.
-Stroke of Fate (Power Rangers Super Samurai) -The Master's Last Stand (Power Rangers Wild Force) -Return of Thunder (Power Rangers Ninja Storm) -General Deception (Power Rangers Ninja Storm) -White Thunder (Power Rangers Dino Thunder) -S.W.A.T. (Power Rangers SPD) -Petrified Xander (Power Rangers Mystic Force) -Ranger Blue (Power Rangers SPD) -Sheriff Skyfire (Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel) -The Poisy Show (Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel)
