Command Center, Episode 8. Welcome back again

to the collaboration between the pop culture

network and the geek cast radio network This

is from the command center the podcast episode

8 this time. I'm your boy Scotty cash and joining

me from the gcrn is Tfg on Mike. Hello. What's

up, buddy? we uh We are actually uh Tito was

wrong, dude. We're just gonna have to do this

and just get get just get it done Tito was wrong.

This... God. That stupid Chihuahua. If this is

torture, chain me to the wall. No, this is torture.

Oh, God. In this episode, we're going to be talking

about Power Rangers Turbo. And even when I got

the email from Spada, he's like, I'm sorry. I

hate car ranger I hate turbo this isn't my best

work I listen to the clip he sounds fine you

guys will hear it later but I don't see how anybody

can like this series this series is so horrible

I agree they basically do nothing with the character

development as I mentioned last time nothing

with Tommy cat Tanya Carlos The only bit of character

development is that Rocky got injured during

the movie, and he does make a brief appearance

in Shift into Turbo, but other than that, it's

basically bringing in the 12 -year -old. Which

is ridiculous. You know, when they first did

this, I thought, hmm... Because I think I heard

something about this back then about... You know

them bringing in or bringing a kid in and I'm

like, oh wait Maybe it'll be Fred Campbell the

Gold Ranger from the end of Mighty Morphin the

movie And I was like that would be kind of cool

if they kind of did that but no they weren't

thinking about that at all So getting into this

it's the fifth season in a long -running series

of Power Rangers The show was prefaced with the

second movie in the franchise Turboy Power Rangers

movie like its predecessors Power Rangers Turbo

included footage from the Japanese television

show Super Sentai in Turbo's case from the 12th

series I'm just gonna call it car ranger because

I can't pronounce the beginning part of that.

It's uh Yeah, car ranger works Yeah, Car Ranger.

The series featured the departure of the long

-running characters Zordon and Alpha -5, as well

as the team of Rangers, Sans -Justin, and introduced

four new characters that take the place of the

veteran Rangers. Alright, so we both probably

never saw this series when it aired because we

were, you know, young adults getting ready to

graduate high school and everything else. Yeah,

when I came back to Power Rangers years later,

I watched this, and I kind of liked it at first

just because of the fact that it was continuing

Tommy's story, but over the last, I think, what

has it been, a month and a half that we've had

to watch this series, I've been able to watch

all, majority of all the episodes, but just torture,

just... God, I mean, yeah, I was I was I was

literally I watched one, you know, one through

three perfectly fine. Yeah. I watched four through

seven, four through eight, something like that.

And I was dozing off. No joke throughout the

episodes. And I was like, I just can't. This

is so boring and so terrible. I couldn't stand

Alpha's voice. Zordon left. out of nowhere and

they brought in Ricky Lake and it just got awful.

I would have actually preferred Ricky Lake to

this chick. Yeah, she would have had some, what

do you call it here, some charisma? No, not charisma.

I don't know. She would have had some kind of

like, I just hated that chick. She was like,

she always talked real low and it's like, what

a terrible, terrible replacement for Zordon.

As the I'm so glad after this starting within

space They just do series that they do recast

every series instead of Having a long -running

series see, you know, you know five seasons per

series and then constantly rotating cast out

I'm glad that they stopped doing that because

from Mighty Morphin to now the changeouts have

become So horrific. Yes You know, Kimberly's

story, that was an actual story. She went somewhere.

The Jason, Trini, and Zach thing. That was an

actual two or three episode story that took,

you know, that gave you reasons why they're leaving.

It, you know, gave you some sort of closure that,

oh, hey, they're leaving. We need to say goodbye

to them, blah, blah, blah, blah. Even Billy's

story about him, you know, journeying off to

Aquitar, even though... behind the scenes David

Yost basically walked off set because he was

being made fun of and being you know verbally

abused by some producers and stuff even that

story regardless was a story whereas you know

Carlos and Ashley two of the new ones They just

show up as background characters that Adam and

Aisha kind of already know. I mean, Adam was

training Carlos, and Ashley, she was just there

in the background as like a waitress slash helper,

I guess. I don't know. And it's too quick. Oh

yeah, it blew my mind. The transition is just

way too fast from old cast to new cast. I don't

dislike the new cast. I really like them because

they are something different, as I've said up

to episode five of this podcast. You know, after

a while, the original cast, as good as they are,

obviously they want to move on and do other things

in their careers as Hollywood celebrities or

whatever you want to call them, movie stars,

TV stars, whatever. The new cast is fine, but

just the transition between the two It was it

was too quick. It's like you blink and you miss

it. Yeah, I mean Zordon Zordon calls everybody

to the to the command center and he's like, okay

guys You know, this is where we're gonna go ahead

and you know pick new Rangers and his reading

his reasoning was Once we've taught you everything

you can be taught about About this You must move

on and and build your own character Actually,

it wasn't Zordon Zordon had already left. It

was Demetria and Zordon and Alpha showed up for

the ceremony. They had already gone at that.

Oh, yes. Yes, you're right. You are right. Yeah,

they had already shot off to LTAR. Yeah, for

no good reason. Out of nowhere. See you guys.

And, you know, remember when I first approached

you with the idea to do this show, I told you

about the alpha switch. And you're like, I don't

remember that. I'm like, dude, just wait. Yeah,

yeah. Because you went from a semi, you know,

OK, slightly, a little bit annoying alpha voice

in IAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

It's a girl doing it. First of all, it's gotta

be. And it's terrible. I couldn't stand it. Alpha

6 is horrid. The story of TJ and Cassie coming

in, I like that because that does show them going

to help Tommy and Kat. But again, the whole ceremony

of the power changeover. They've known these

people for... In the time of the show In the

timeline of the show. I would say it's maybe

been a month and a half two months Well, no because

the red ranger and the pink ranger Save them

and it's like the next episode is when they get

their powers. Yeah, so it's like look I know

nothing about you Random chick and black guy

that were on this bus. You are now Power Rangers

Yeah This is crazy. I did actually like though

how And I'm sure they did it to reach out, but

they it was the first time that they had a black

leader Yeah, and I can only assume that they

did that on purpose and I'm you know to try to

try to bring in more of the African community

just along just kind of like when they did with

Super Friends or whatever when they brought in

all the ethnic characters. Yeah, you know they

were probably trying to reach out too different

to, you know, the other race trying to bring

them in. But yeah, I'm definitely with you. When

they first changed over, I was like, this is

just stupid. But it seems like I was saying earlier

before we started recording that it seemed like

the story got a little bit better with the new

cast. I'm almost it almost seems like they had

the old cast in there to get people to keep watching.

You know what I mean? Because maybe they thought

it wasn't going to do that good because, well,

it's goofy ass cars. So they're like, well, we'll

just have Tommy and everybody come in and then

we'll switch it and hopefully they can keep They'll

keep watching So, you know, I think they did

I think they did a really good job. You know

what I mean? and the The worst thing about this

one of the worst things about the series outside

of the main cast is Balkan skull. Oh god. Yes

Elgar turns them into monkeys. Well first they're

invisible No, they're invisible at the end. Oh,

but you sure yeah, they were turned into monkeys

first And then they then they were then they're

invisible. Yep because they Yeah, yeah, they

were yeah cuz in cuz the very first episode Elgar's

at the power plant and he hits him with that

ray They turn into monkeys. They're monkeys for

the entire series. Yeah, you're right and then

in space when or it might be at the end of, yeah,

no. I think it's at the end, I don't know. They

were monkeys first, then they were invisible,

and then they were invisible for like an episode

and a half, and then they became visible again

because of something exploding and making them

visible again. I don't know. But yeah, going

from being themselves, being all these odd end

jobs in Zeo and all that, to being monkeys for

the entire series. Now, I know that... Paul Schreer

and Jason Narvey did vocals, obviously. They

did voiceover. I'm not sure what they were doing

behind the scenes. Pointing their hair out, because

it was terrible. Probably. But usually when you

have something like that, where characters are

changing to this, or once we get down the line

to Dino Thunder, Tommy is frozen in the suit.

He can't demorph. It's the same thing here with

the monkeys. It's because of the actors either

have other obligations or they just don't want

to be in the show all the time or something like

that. It's usually a production cost is why they

do stuff like this and it's just horrible. Yes.

Do you think there's anything good about this

season? Honestly Because yeah, I mean that I

don't even want to even cover the turbo morphers

or any of the weapons I mean they're just there

the zords are just there the one thing I will

say is I like that they didn't know And this

is the beginning which is silly to me, but kind

of but I like that You know whenever they get

a new vehicle or a new power. I think they need

to learn it before they just automatically know

it. And I liked in Shift into Turbo how, you

know, pulling the Megazord together was a little

bit difficult because they were just getting

used to those Zords. I kind of like that, but

overall, I would say Shift into Turbo three -parter,

passing the Torch two -parter, and chasing to

space. At the end are the best episodes I liked

The only thing I can take away from This this

this series is I liked the way that the Phantom

Ranger looked and I liked the blue centurion

Yeah, I liked the way he looked I liked how he

was like a robot cop from like a different Dimension

or whatever you want to call it. What's the word

for it? You know, and I liked I just like the

way he looked all together and I liked how he

had his own sword and everything and That's that's

that's literally about it Yeah Let's see. The

funny thing is is I don't know if this is a production

cost or not in the beginning. He would grow himself,

right and then they bring in this police zord

to you know, just have him pilot. I don't know

if that was a production cost or not, but his

Zord was pretty cool. Yeah, I love this. Yeah,

yeah, he's pretty cool. Really, it's not so much

the actors that I have an issue with, whether

it be Tommy and that crew or TJ and the new crew.

It's more so the plot lines and the story lines

of every episode. Yeah. Every single episode.

Algar take this detonator down to earth Algar

do this Algar do that It seems like they they

saved the better plots or better part of the

story for the new cast It's kind of like you

know They use the old cast to get everybody interested

and then they kind of did a little bit better

storyline because Like the first nine ten eleven

twelve episodes are just horrific They're here.

I mean the whole season is bad, but it just seemed

like I don't know Maybe I just got used to the

terribleness You know cuz it got to a point where

you know, let's be honest I sent you an email

and I was like Mike can you can you please just

do me a favor and send me a list of the episodes

that I must watch because I literally cannot

I Just can't do this anymore. I'm just sleeping

through these episodes and then I have to rewatch

it five times, you know, I'll be honest after

the first 18 episodes I Would watch maybe five

like from episode 19 to probably episode 45 I

would watch like the first five minutes I would

see that diva talks had another detonator another

monster some of the monsters are alright some

of the monsters are kind of cool but the main

thing was her obsession with detonators and it's

like oh god pretty terrible yeah it was well

then they ended up being sisters right the uh

yeah Diva Talks and Demetrio are the sisters.

Like really? Come on. And it's only because Carol

Hoyt was playing both characters. So as far as

the transition from Zeo to this... Awfulness.

The only explanation for the transition from

Zeo powers to Turbo powers is that in Turbo,

a Power Rangers movie, Zordon states that if

Divatox and Malagor teamed up, not even the Zords,

reference to the Zeo Zords, would be enough to

stop them. Therefore, Turbo Zords were created

which combined would be the most powerful Zord

ever created. The origin for the Turbo powers

was never divulged as well as the Zordon saying

the new Zords you are now creating, implying

that they were quickly created during the coups

of the movie. Course of the movie although it

was speculated that Billy created the turbo powers

and zords himself during the course of Power

Rangers Zio This supported by previous red herring

that Billy would make himself scarce Whenever

the then mysterious Gold Ranger was around at

the time leaving fancily that Billy was the Gold

Ranger instead leaving to work on the new turbo

powers now that I can kind of like Billy, you

know thinking ahead and planning ahead I can

accept Like if he made the turbo zords if he

created the turbo powers if he worked on them

himself But again, the problem is Zordon specifically

states that during the transformation from zeo

to turbo in this in the movie That they are creating

the zords themselves at that moment and it's

like what? It's ridiculous. I will say this about

the zords You know, although it's obvious I don't

like car Megazords or car Voltron or any car

or anything. I do like the way that they looked

when they were in Megazord mode. Yeah, they really

did look sharp. I liked the colors a lot. I like

the rescue Zords. I like the way they look too.

I liked the blue Centurion Zord. I mean, they

all looked really, really bad ass. I will say

that. The only issue I have with the zeo mega

or not the zeo Megazord Jesus Christ the turbo

Megazord is The the final move that they always

use the Spanx the the the final strike spinning

sword attack. Yeah, I'm sorry There would be

puke all over the inside of that Megazord because

it's basically the Twitter a very large Tilt

-a -whirl Because they even show it with both

cast they show it with the Tommy cast and they

show it with with the TJ cast of Them spinning

around in in the Zord and I'm like that's making

me busy The lack of information on the fate of

the Zeo powers allowed a popular Power Rangers

hoax named Scorpion Rain to gather credibility

as a fan video explained not only the fate of

the Zeo Zords, but why Lord Zed and Rita Repulsa

retreated after having previously destroyed the

threat of the Machine Empire. Scorpion Rain would

survive for years as an urban legend in the Power

Rangers fandom with its kenosity even after being

admitted to be a fake brought to question one

of the hoaxes perpetrators worked on a future

episode of power rangers wild force forever ed

which made several references to scorpion rain

i've never seen scorpion rain this is the first

i'm hearing or knowing of it is what you're saying

right now i'll have to google it you'll have

to look it up after After we're done here in

the end However, no cannot canonical explanation

for the fate of zeal powers has ever been released

by the creators So to assume that both zeal zords

and the zeal crystal still exists on earth, but

just not used I don't know and they're gonna

stay unused too because every single season of

Power Rangers, you know, they have to get bigger

and better zords because the last ones weren't

powerful enough so that you can't go from samurai

to 10 seasons ago where you know we need to go

back and you don't go back and get these powers

that weren't strong enough to beat these guys

but they're for sure beat these guys you know

what i mean well i think they could like say

they wanted to bring cat back for a season as

as a special guest they could bring back the

pink zeal powers for those anniversary episodes

like what Tommy and all those guys were in Forever

Red. Adam was in Once a Ranger on Overdrive.

If they're gonna bring someone back with powers,

they could do it that way. But as far as them

being used again in future seasons or series,

no. They're just lying dormant somewhere. Did

you like the Phantom Ranger? I like the Phantom

Ranger, but I hate the fact that we never find

out who he is Yeah, it was a terrible story.

I I liked it to a certain point I like the character

design of him but the problem is as you said

it's a terrible story because One of the reasons

why it's a terrible story is because we never

actually get a fucking story You know we don't

get to know who he is. They you know start this

you know Star -crossed lovers syndrome between

him and Cassie You know, this unyielding yearningness,

but they never ever pay it off. The suit was

cool. Yeah, it looked awesome. I think before

our heads explode, we're going to send it over

to Spade of the Bolt Matrix and hear what he

has to say about the Sentai Car Ranger. Hey gang,

Spade of the Bolt Matrix here on From the Command

Center, and this time we're talking about the

20th installment of Toei's Super Sentai series.

Gekki, So, Sentai, Car Ranger. Airing from 1996

to 1997, Car Ranger is considered by many to

be the show that saved the Super Sentai series.

More on that in a minute. While the USA version

retained the same zords, costumes, and weapons,

there were major differences between Car Robots

and Turbo. First was the plot. Dapu, from the

planet Hazard, meets five employees from the

Pegasus Auto Garage and empowers them with Kuru

Magic to fight the reckless alien driver gang

known as the Bozok. The Kuru Magic, or car magic,

comes from the five legendary car constellations.

And where do I even begin with that? Car constellations!

Oh, Japan! Needless to say, this is a little

bit different from the way things went about

in Power Rangers Turbo. Now, Car Rangers Action

is split between hand -to -hand combat and actual

road combat. If you watch the beginning of Power

Rangers Turbo, you will see a lot of Zord road

combat. Well, that was... prominent in Car Ranger.

It was in almost every episode. The road combat

is also where the series really shines. The developers

of the show created miniature radio -controlled

cars and made entire combat sequences around

those radio -controlled cars. Each Ranger had

their own Kura car, or the Zords, and each Bozok

had their individually animal -styled Bari cars.

You had Gorillas, fish, dogs, scorpions. It was

really neat and really interesting. But speaking

of the villains, they themselves are actually

really unique and interesting. And very, very

different from what we saw in the US. Gainimo,

Roigog, Rigog in Turbo, is the leader of the

Bozok gang. Grotch, Porto in Turbo, is the inventor

of the group and is responsible for growing the

monsters. And Zelmoda, who was Elgar in Turbo,

is the second in command of the gang and Gainimo's

best friend. The last member of the group is

Lady Zonite. who through most of the series has

this weird crush on the red car ranger or red

racer as they were called now that's really weird

because you have this one female who And let's

not beat around the bush. She's really scantily

clad. It's kind of disturbing how little she

actually wears. But she has this crush on the

Red Ranger who doesn't really notice she exists

for most of the series. And then she disappears,

and then she comes back. She's a very strange

character. Also, the three villains They're not

really super evil. They're more like kind of

an inept biker gang. And that really kind of,

that kind of plays into the overall theme of

the show, as in the overall tone of the series

is very, very light. There are tons of gags and

jokes, and the villains themselves are not really

that threatening. They are somewhat destructive.

But they end up blowing up the same section of

town over and over and over again. If you go

back and watch the series, it's the same section

that they're blowing up just from different angles.

And that's really due to the fact that the budget

for the show was cut a little bit. And that's

something that we really need to get into is...

This was kind of the last hurrah for Super Sentai

Super Sentai up to this point was really going

downhill on the last four or five series And

it wasn't for lack of trying the popularity of

the series was just plummeting but because of

these gags and because of everything else that

the seer that car Ranger brought the show was

it Was a phenomenal hit. I mean it It was huge.

Power Rangers was back. Now, getting back to

the villains, the only real menace of the series

came from when the Big Bad, or the Big Baddie,

who originally sent the Bozak to Earth, Emperor

Exos, he attempted to crash their fortress into

the Earth. And was stopped. And everybody was

happy. I wish there was more to it, but that

was really the last five, six episodes of the

series. Now, at the end of its run, as I said,

Car Ranger had all but saved Super Sentai. At

the series start, Bandai was ready to give up

on the whole franchise. But thankfully, Car Ranger

saved it, and it's still going, and Super Sentai

is still going today. Now, there are a lot of

more cool things that I could have talked about

in this brief, but I really wanted to give you

guys just an overview because, well, there's

a lot of wacky zaniness out there. In no less

than three different episodes, there is a large

amount of cross -dressing. For no reason whatsoever.

Now, I strongly suggest you go to SuperSentaiTimeCapsule

.com to take a look at the show because... Well

besides the few things that I mentioned yeah,

there's a lot of zanias, but not much else is

different. We still have the Six Ranger being

what we know it what we call or what is known

as signal man in Japan and He's just as stupid

there as he is in turbo so this is a very weird

series in the fact that It kind of goes completely

off the rails at one point with its comedy But

then brings it back to being a little more serious

at the end And that is going to show up again,

or that theme is going to show up again when

we get on to Power Rangers RPM and when we talk

about Go Onger, which is its Super Sentai equivalent.

So this has been Spada from the Command Center,

and I'll catch you next time. And if you'd like

to hear more from me, please check out my YouTube

channel at www .youtube .com slash BaltMatrix.

Now, back to TFG One Mic. Thank you for that.

Interesting yet very short opinion on car ranger

Spada So what's the so spade is pretty much saying

that Car Ranger saved Super Sentai That's pretty

much what happened in Japan because of all the

wackiness and zaniness and comedy bits. It saved

it Because it was initially going to be the last

season or they you know Actually in space was

probably gonna be the last season and in space

was so much better than turbo so But yeah car

Ranger apparently saved super sentai in Japan

Yep, I don't know how stressing people can say,

you know, I don't I don't have an issue with

people who cross dress That's that's your lifestyle.

I don't care but Yeah Just don't know and as

far as that's one thing. We really didn't bring

up was for us was diva talks his outfit Yeah,

diva talks is barely wearing anything. I think

it's hot. I think it's hot, but I mean not first,

you know kids show Yeah, yeah There's a difference

between you know a feature -length film with

a chick and a you know green bikini that turns

into an owl Compared to a weekly daily TV series

with a chick that has scantily clad pirate gear

on Honestly as I said before the for me the only

episodes that I will probably ever go back and

watch with this is The three -part opener passing

the torch two -parter The chase into space to

part of the end of the series Now I think we

do need to talk about chasing the space. Hold

on while I die over here Before you die Yeah,

what the heck was I just gonna say I was like,

oh no don't die and then I forgot what I was

gonna say Chasing the space closed the series

very well You know you have an actual story where

you know Justin has a choice whether to go with

the Rangers or go with his dad They have this

whole thing of Diva talks because in an earlier

episode her brother came and gave her this space

base well, they want to go attack her at the

space base because She finally found the command

center and destroyed it and this is the last

time in Power Rangers history, as far as I know,

that we ever see the command center. After this

series, it's gone. I'm pretty sure you are correct.

Because from here on out, we always have new

people every rip. They have their own new headquarters.

New headquarters, new worlds, new this, new that.

The really only gripe I have about chasing to

space is that The dumbass of the entire series

was the one that got the bright idea to destroy

the transport tube. Are you serious? They let

Algar destroy the transport tube? Really? And

since when have piranatrons been intelligent

enough to use a battering ram or to use grappling

hooks to get up to the roof? That's true. I mean,

piranatrons are like reject - Foot soldiers from

Teenager Ninjas foot soldiers are smarter than

these guys There's no way the piranha trons would

have the same intelligence as a foot soldier

that shredder built, right? I Did like their

song though, dude. I really did that was funny

It's so terrible that it was funny cuz I was

like what what song is this and they're like

there, you know, they were just pretty much hating

on the Pythonatrons, and it was funny. The music

in this series was slightly, it's not as good

as other series previous, but it was still very

good. Like I said, I liked the theme. I liked

the one song that Wasserman sings, which is,

if I could ever find the folder, let me see here.

Let's see, where is that song? I don't know.

What are your thoughts on Chasing to Space? You

know, to be honest, when it ended, I was actually

quite mad. Because the way it ended, I was like,

this is stupid. I mean, just a way to cap off

a terrible, terrible season. But then the more

I thought about it, it was actually like a real

TV series cliffhanger. Like, you don't know what's

going to happen. and they were trying to probably

trying to bring people in for for uh the next

season and that's what i was going to say a second

ago i looked everywhere for um tv ratings on

turbo and i couldn't find it anywhere i went

to websites i typed in google all kinds of different

ways i just wanted to see what the ratings were

of like zeo and then i wanted to see what the

ratings were of turbo or even know any of them

for that matter just to kind of try to compare

them or maybe even turbo at the beginning and

turbo at the end but you know I never could never

find anything but the more I thought about it

the more I liked it a little bit more how it

was actually like a real season or a real series

yeah episode you know or season ender Yeah, well

it was a series ender but it was also a continuation

for series because this is the first time that

you I think you really have a full -on series

season finale that has to be continued next time

in Power Rangers and I mean you had a whole story

of them I mean they set up going into space very

well. Well Power Rangers or Power Rangers season

3 they did the same thing because they they blew

up the command center so you You went into Zio

not knowing what the heck was going on. Okay,

yeah, that's that's true. Besides that, that's

about that's about the up to this point. Yeah,

because season three, that's all you had. I mean,

because season one, you didn't have a cliffhanger

or a real finale. Season two, you didn't have

a cliffhanger or a real finale. You get to season

three and then, you know, they blow up the command

center and the crystal is lost and. And then

they go into Zeo and it has a continuation, so

yeah. So I guess going into Zeo was the first

real story, but I mean, this is the one that

really kicks off the fact that next season is

gonna be... It's still gonna be them, but it's

gonna have all kinds of new villains and new

heroes and new this and new that. Oh, it is the

same cast? Yeah. Do they do the entire season?

You know what? No, you know what? Don't don't

tell me. I think yeah. Yeah, they do Don't um,

the only change really belongs her guy. Who's

the long -haired guy with the blonde hair? Oh

You'll find out. Okay. Well, don't tell me no

more. Let's not talk about that I'm not gonna

tell you no, but what I was gonna say was the

only change in the cast Is the fact that Justin

stayed on earth with his dad? Oh, thank you God

You don't remember that in chase into space part.

Well, yeah. Yeah, but just thank you God cuz

he was just like No, you guys better go. I got

to stay here or something along those lines.

I remember getting extremely excited. Yeah. Yeah,

Justin stayed on Earth. So it's basically four

Rangers going into space and then they introduce

a new Red Ranger in space. So there is that.

our brains explode and we'll come back to close

What it does, friends. Sweeneholic here, inviting

you to join me every Monday for Radical Retro

Turtle Toy Talk. What's that, you ask? Radical

Retro Turtle Toy Talk is my weekly video series

in which we take a look at my favorite toy line

of yesteryear, Vintage Plant Mates Teenage Mutant

Ninja Turtles. If you're a green team -goer,

I'm betting you'll have a great time getting

reacquainted with old friends or meeting new

ones for the first time. That's Radical Retro

Turtle Toys Hawk at www .radicalretro .com, part

of the Pop Culture Network. So we are back and

before we close the show, one thing I forgot

to mention. Did you have any of the toys for

Turbo at all? No, absolutely not. I did not.

I had Tommy at one point and that's about it.

I'm not even sure where the heck that is now.

To be honest with you, I mean, I wouldn't mind

having the Megazords now that I watched it, because

I really do like the way they look. But that's

about it. That's about all I can take away from

this series. Maybe I wouldn't mind having the

Blue Centurions action figure, because he was

kind of cool, even though he was writing parking

tickets through some of the episodes. And he

got beat down by an old lady when he malfunctioned.

Yes, he did. All right, so. Overall, no one should

be forced to watch Power Rangers Turbo ever.

And this is coming from two really, really huge

Power Rangers fans. This series was awful in

plot. I would love to hear the fans' feedbacks.

Like if you guys, if you dislike what we're saying,

why don't you email me or Mike or go to the iTunes

account and post something. Tell me what you

think. What am I missing here? Because from the

beginning to the end, it was terrible. Yeah,

there was never a part where I was like, oh wow,

this is actually getting good I mean not not

one part and like I said in our Episode eight

or seven that we did the turbo the movie, you

know most the time I I tried to You know make

the best out of it, you know the episodes and

but this there's just no doing that this time

It's just it's just bad. No, it's just bad. I

will post up on because I still moderate the

announcement thread over at the PCN forums. I

will post up that we did record these episodes.

And after these episodes are posted, I'll make

a post in there saying, hey, if you disagree

with us, let us know. Because, yeah, we want

to know if anyone really liked this series. I

know Linkara didn't like it. Linkara, over at

that guy with the glasses, because I actually...

That's how I actually prepared for this episode

as I watched his reviews of his history and history

of Power Rangers episodes. I always forget about

that, dude. Yeah, he's awesome. So thank you
