While I was waiting for response for "Bruce Lee vs Jet Li who would win" I just thought: "How many times have they change the theme of Power Rangers?" He's what I remember
The first season: Prehistoric Animals (Good)
2nd season: Mystical Creatures (Good)
3rd season: some sort of Ninja style with animals (kinda bad)
Some season not sure which one (I stopped watching for a while: It had more mystical creatures but the new villians were a familiy of robots (Kinda O.K better than the 3rd season)
ARGH! Now it's so confusing like isn't there one about "Time" another about "Space" (wait are there two about space) Ninja storm. HOW MANY TIMES ARE THEY GONNA CHANGE THE SHOW UNTIL IT DIES AND LETS THE FIRST TWO SEASON REST IN PEACE!!!!????
-the first rule of fat club-
*shrug* - you ever try to get a handle on just what a 'trancer' is?
What's a tracer?
-the first rule of fat club-
'trancer'
'Trancers' are the bad guys in a series of movies, starting with "Trancers"
I think Stomp Tokyo pretty much covers most of them, starting with the first one (http://www.stomptokyo.com/movies/trancers.html). Nathan reviews the first and the sixth at Cold Fusion Video.
The thing is, from movie to movie, the definition of what a trancer is, or the explanation of how someone becomes a trancer, changes from movie to movie, in very inconsistant ways.
WHAT DOES TRACERS HAVE TO DO WITH "POWER RANGERS" *SOB* you're not a very helpful person.

WHAT DOES TRACERS HAVE TO DO WITH "POWER RANGERS"
Same concept. Re-occuring characters whose definition changes by those writing the stories
If you ever watch the Power Rangers now have absolutely nothing to do with the first 2 or 3 seasons. But I still laugh my ass off at how bad it really is. My sons and I were watching the new series the other morning and they had a monster that was mole-like. I swear they used their "zord" with a big mallet and played whack-a-mole with this monster. I almost chocked on my coffee i was laughing so hard. It was the funnest thing I have seen in a childrens program in a while. But then again I may be easily amused.
I remember I was suckered onto the Power Rangers bandwagon when I was 9. Then, when they changed the robots and the cast, it was like a spell was lifted, and it ocurred to me just how dumb the whole thing was. Still dig that theme song, though.
"GO GO POWER RANGE-AHZ!!!!"

I watched Power Rangers for a while when it first started, but then Amy Jo Johnson left...
I think Catherine Shuterland is hotter.
Does anyone think there was a racist undertone to the first season, I mean Zack a African American was the Black Ranger and Trini a Asian American was the Yellow Ranger.

And Kimberly (a woman) was the pink ranger! And I agree that Amy Jo Johnson was hot. The show was never the same after the original cast left. Although, I did catch it one saturday morning on Fox Family with some new cast....And that loser Billy was on it. I'm not sure if it was just a cameo or what.
They kept changing the cast, went to extreme lengths to plug a new toy for Christmas, the fights were bland and uninteresting when they didn't have that Flying-Monkey "Goldar" character to fight against.
Also P/R induced many kids, especally here in the UK, to violence. There was even a Panaroma Special on it...
At college I did a parody of the whole Power Rangers thing - essentally I had a radio show where the presenter talked to failed Power Ranger actors such as "Radioactive Ranger" and "Lung Cancer Ranger" and "Airport Attendant Ranger" (because he thought his crazy hand signals would get him the job - watch any P/R episode, you'll see what I mean).
The parody radio show had the presenter debating whether P/R enduced violence with the failed actors and ended in a massive brawl between the failed actors and the presenter. It was stupid. Stupid and funny.
There´s already a parody of Power Rangers.
It´s called"National Lampoon´s Men In White".
