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.

Power Rangers Survey 6: Favorite Sixth Ranger.

Tommy bitches!
As I have said, he left a big impression on me by being evil at first. I honestly cannot see a Green Ranger and not understand why it isn't a big deal. He was the only original Ranger to become giant (Twice in fact if you count the last episode of Zeo), and he had a f*cking Dragonzord! Normally I wouldn't think too much of a dragon, but a show can often make something more cool by adding limitations. Here, we had giant robot dinosaurs, those are kickass! So how do you do one better? A dragon, bitch! Also he had a cool flute.

However, since I am trying to branch out from MMPR with my answers, my second choice would be The Blue Senturian.

Technically the first Sixth Ranger I saw aside from Tommy, the Blue Senturian was notable for me mostly for filling the Sixth Ranger slot, but also because he was clearly a policeman, and he helped my favorite superheroes fight monsters. That is what all policemen should do. Fight monsters. That is how you will regain the respect of the public.

He also uses his stoplights for combat, which brings me to the Wild Mass Guess that a prototype Senturian was used by Finster to create that Turtle thing with the stoplight on it's back. I just thought of that just now.
