Power Rangers Survey 31: Favorite Weapon.

Yes, that's right, I'm going with the extra one. I'd like to go with Tommy's dagger flute, which is always going to be classic. But in all honesty, I've gotta say my eye has recently been caught by one of the newest weapons in the series, which I like to call the WHOABIGSWORD!


My second choice would be Zach and Adam's Power Axe.

It's an Axe that transforms into a gun! That is like...a hundred other weapons in this series. But what do all these weapons have in common aside from that function? They are all AWESOME!

Power Rangers Survey 29: Favorite Story Arc/Episode.

An excellent question actually. How about I tell you my favorite epiodeS? Well, that I can remember. Keep in mind these are ones that I have seen, and despite being a big fan, I haven't actually seen that many over the whole series. I may also not know the right names.

Day of the Dumpster: The original, the episode that started it all. Not exactly the classic I remembered as a kid, but by god it's still a ton of fun. It's got all the essentials, namely fighting, Bulk and Skull and Zords. All of these can be found in almost every episode. This is why I lvoed Migty Morphin.

White Light: The first appearance of the White Ranger. To be honest I saw this on the Best of Power Rangers DVD, but I still enjoyed it regardless of continuity. Of course it isn't perfect, for one, the Zord fight is incredibly lackluster, what with the monster of the week, Nimrod the Scarlet Sentinel and his sidekicks AC and DC looking completely non threatening and being poorly edited in to look like the Rangers are fighting it. And even though the majority of my love for the series is based around status quo, I have to say the image of Tommy descending in the suit is incredibly badass.

Countdown to Destruction: Even a Status Quo Nazi like myself cannot help but find this episode awesome. We should have had more of Bulk and Skull fighting.

Powewr Rangers Survey 28: Favorite Under a Spell.

I actually feel a little guilty. On the one hand I am kind of neglecting updating this thing, but on the other, I said I was trying to move away from Mighty Morphin' for these answers. Well I'm sorry, but I grew up with Mighty Morphin' so the majority of my answers are gonna come from there. As such, I nominate the immortal Green with Evil Saga, one of the most famous and popular PR stories of all time and the introduction for Tommy Oliver. Yeah, his personality was kind of bland, but for a show like this, that means very little. In the early years, anyway.

This was the first time we saw the Rangers really get their asses kicked, so you knew this was big from the start. I'm not quite sure if there were any hypnotised character eps before this one, but if not, this is the father of the whole PR trope.

Power Rangers Survey 17: Favorite Couple (Canon)

Um...okay...I...um. I'm gonna go with Kim and Tommy. That's right isn't it? I honestly never paid much attention to the romance aspect of these things, which is a shame considering that I seem to get annoyed when people tell me that 'Oh that part never appealed to me.' And yes Robert, I am referring to you and the Zord Fights, though at least that's justified in that almost all Zord fights lack the stuntwork seen in the regular ones.

Power Rangers Survey 4: Favorite Male Ranger.

Billy. Not the best Ranger in the world, and definately not the most badass, but I identified with Billy more than any of the other Rangers. Mainly because he was a geek. I was never as smart as him, but Billy was the closest thing I had to a counterpart on the show.

If I had to pic a second I would probably go to Jason, but thinking about it, I'm gonna go with Tommy because as the Green Ranger he had a subtle impact on me. In Mighty Morphin' the Rangers lineup was Red, Blue, Pink, Yellow and Black, but in the wide majority of the others Black is instead Green, and no matter how many times I see it, I will always think this is weird because I instantly think back to the Green Ranger pwning all the other Rangers. Admittedly he wasn't evil for long, but my cousin had the Green With Evil saga on VHS, so we watched it a lot. And he was a Dragon! When you're a kid dealing with giant robot dinosaurs, a giant robot dragon is the only way that could possibly be cooler.
But ultimately, Tommy just dosn't hold a place in my fandom like long running Ranger Billy.

And also, my favorite color was blue at the time.
