Space heroes.... I have a deep seeded hate for the power rangers.

XD lol I never got Power Rangers as a kid myself.

I'd have to pick Space heroes because of captain Ryan alone...he was such a horrible leader

*victory_angel* · 08-13-2014, 02:56 PM

I have no real love for either of them. The TV shows are just there as fill for when the Turtles are hanging out in the lair.

Mukouno · 08-13-2014, 02:57 PM

I voted for Space heroes. Mainly because of Captain Ryan.

As Leo once said: "What a hero."

It was more like..."which show was more entertaining to watch" question

*Hero* · 08-13-2014, 03:27 PM

Who knows. They may find a new show to watch in season 3.

Space heroes all the way, Cpt. Ryan slapping the ish out of ppl is pretty darn funny

*plastroncafe* · 08-13-2014, 03:38 PM

I'm pretty sure someone asked if there was going to be a new show for the next season at the SDCC Nick Toon panel, but I don't think we got a clear answer.

*BubblyShell22* · 08-13-2014, 06:19 PM

I like both to be honest. And Captain Dash slaps people, too, so it's not just a Captain Ryan thing.

darn I should have put a "both" option!

*Shiro Kame* · 08-13-2014, 06:34 PM

I have no idea. They both had very poor voice-acting and felt like it was made for 5-year-olds with nothing better to do. Although Leo's geeking over Space Heroes was pretty funny.

*ssjup81* · 08-13-2014, 07:11 PM

I wish there was a "both" option. I like something about both, and if the next parody is indeed of the Smurfs, I hope that the Papa Smurf-like character slaps the other Smurfs. lol

What I liked about Space Heroes was Ryan and his solution of slapping, even himself. That's hilarious.

As for the other show, it reminded me of a mix of Voltron and G-Force. I like the fact that it's dubbed so horribly, like most shows from the 70s/80s. lol

You know, I think I'll just go with Space Heroes. Captain Dash isn't cocky like Captain Ryan and I do find it funnier, especially with Leo "geeking out" over it. lol

But that was the point....that's the joke.

*drgon78* · 08-13-2014, 08:54 PM

I can't decide, I must have them both.

Also, have they said what show they will be spoofing in season 3?

Cryomancer · 08-13-2014, 09:08 PM

I see a lot of people comparing the robot show to Voltron, and yeah I imagine there is some Voltron influence in there, probably some Gatchaman too, and perhaps a little Mazinger in the robot's design. But I think it's most directly going for Cobattler V / Voltes V.

I've made a comparison image: http://i.imgur.com/ZpYMyfD.jpg

And you can pretty much thank Goranger for all of those shows too!

*IndigoErth* · 08-13-2014, 09:22 PM

Space Heroes. When I first got hooked on the 2012 series it kinda really tickled me to see this young Leo portrayed sitting there so enamored with it...

...because long ago that was me watching his original series. lol

Edit: Yeah, Voltron is what the other show always made me think of as well.

*Electric* · 08-13-2014, 09:25 PM

space heros, because it was leos show.

while the new one parallels all of them, having leo so into space heros is what really kicked off a new part to his character

Konchadunga · 08-13-2014, 10:37 PM

Space Heroes, by something of a landslide. It had a one-joke premise; that it was Star Trek except with an anti-heroic captain, but so far as I can tell, SRMFF's only "joke" is that it's an old mecha anime, with absolutely no subversion of old mecha anime tropes to make it a true parody.

I really don't like either that much, though. I've come to hate, truly, the practice of using the shows to nail in what the plot and message are going to be that episode; it feels very pandering to me, as though they think children are too dumb to get it if it's not beaten into their heads.

But...but it's funny.

Its rather obvious they're going to change the show every season. I expect a new show for season 3
