Other Saban Shows That Did Not Succeed

These are the other Saban shows which lasted only about 1 or 2 seasons and got taken over by Power Rangers. Pics come from Toku Central.

1994-1996 

2 Seasons 

92 Episodes 

As a kid, I thought it was interesting, but to tell you the truth it wasn't that great of a show. Funny thing is that the Japanese footage that this was taken from was older then "Zyuranger" (the Sentai that adapted MMPR). After it ended, the actress who played Kaitlin (Sarah Brown) got a job on ABC's General Hospital.

1995-1996

1 Season 

40 Episodes 

I have never seen this show (and never will). It was actually introduced in the MMPR Season 2 finale "A Friend In Need". However, this material was also older then "Zyuranger". I remember that Jason Narvy (who played Skull) was the voice of a monster. This is based of the "Karman Rider" franchise in Japan and after this NOTHING was adapted from this again until 2009 when the show "Karman Rider Dragon Knight" came out. It also failed not even showing the final 2 episodes.

1996-1998 

2 Seasons 

88 Episodes 

UMMMM......This was a really bad show. The acting was good, but the plots were pointless. I've only seen about I don't know like 4 or 5 episodes. I wanted them to have a team-up with Power Rangers, but that never happened. It only happened in a book with the Turbo Rangers. Jo's actress  was changed mid-way through the 1st season and the show took over PR's ratings for a short time. For some reason in the fall of 1998 after the show was cancelled, Bandai made a toyline called "Bettleborgs B Force" which combined the two.

1998-1999

1 Season

50 Episodes 

This show I have never seen ether. It was the first Saban show to have original footage and even THAT was unsuccessful. Nuff said.

Power Rangers Samurai Episode 8-Forest For The Trees

OK. But not great. Mike got some more character development, Saban Brands have learned that monster's puns are not good and the acting was the same. Decker's getting interesting but they are not showing enough of the main villains. It really doesn't help any. We better get some American original episodes soon. Just adapting from Shinkenger is a good idea, but it doesn't help at some points. Sometimes the plots to Shinkenger are just silly. I just can't wait for Decker and Jayden's fight. 

Since there was no new episode today due to the rerun of last night's KCAs (which by the way was awesome.) I will just watch the classic MMPR episode "Calamity Kimberly" (my first time seeing the episode).

New episodes resume next Sunday with Episode "9": "Test Of The Leader"

Power Rangers Samurai Episode 7-I Got A Spell On Blue

HMMM...This episode was OK in terms of plot. The monster was doing more fighting then fighting + talking and Mia has improved on her acting. Kevin is just so boring and not enjoyable. My favorite two parts of this episode was the following 

1) Decker's human form (he looks the same but with a beard.)

2)It was AWSOME when Kevin strikes the three and they were thrown back with the explosion. CLASSIC SABAN

Next Sunday: Forest For The Trees

Schedule Change!

The "8th" episode of PRSamurai has been moved from April 10th to THIS Sunday March 27th. Here's what's to come

3/27: Forest For The Trees
  4/3: Nothing new due to KCAs
4/10: Test Of The Leader

Power On!

Power Rangers Samurai-Episode 6: There Goes The Brides

Best episode yet! The acting was so-so, the plot was easy to follow, and there were NO MONSTERS. FINALLY WE GOT TO HEAR MORE HI-YAHS! Decker's getting interesting. Spike is starting to get on my nerves!

Next week: Episode 7: I Got A Spell On Blue.

EPIC!

I know it's late, but it's cool. IN YOUR FACE MARVEL AND DC SUPERHEROES!

Just To Share With You Guys

This would be a good storyline if Saban Brands decide to not have the Goseiger suits, but the zords. This was a rumor started on Facebook. It reveals a battle between the Samurai rangers and the Dark Samurai ranger. It looks pretty cool and would be a good way to introduce the 6th Ranger zords. i also like the name "Edge Of Darkness". It reminds me of "Curse Of The Wolf". It would be a great idea. Wouldn't it be?
