Great article, if a little flawed in some details, but you roughly make a valid point. I too, beleived the dissolution of Fox Kids, in whatever country, was a great loss

I fail to see what was "ridiculous" about Seasons Two and Three of MMPR, they were far above Season One, much as P.R is above MMPR now.

Thirdly, MMPR did'nt end in 1997, it was Power Rangers Turbo by that time, the MMPR name, and coustumes, vanished in 1995, and became Power Rangers Zeo in 1996.

yeah i was off in some parts i guess

upon further research MMPR actually aboandoned the Mighty Morphin' in 96

http://www.rangercentral.com/eps-mmpr3.htm

and i never said that seasons 2 and 3 were any more rediculous than the first season...
quite frankly the whole show was rediculous...
but I love it...I'm not saying it was a horrible show...it was very campy like the Old Batman Show

thanks for looking into my article!

Quite frankly, you need to watch more of the remaining seasons before dismissing it like that, it became far more mature and darker.

MMPR is still on, only the names and premise change, not one season is a new "series"

Okay, I have read the article and it made me smile a few times. Some of the shows I remember only too well whilst I don't know others.

But selling this as an article would be a bit too much. You describe shows for about 90% of the "article" and then you go "Anime is evil". End.

I wouldn't say that anime is evil, there are so many good series out there (take Samurai Champloo for example) but what they butcher and show on TV (the first season of Yu Gi Oh for example seemed pretty interesting, Yugi as a lunatic crippling people and stuff alike) id just rubbish.

And there is one question that remains: Why did they start to butcher those shows in the first place? Did the law change or was it just a bit too much of worrying?
