Man, how time flies.
It was 20 years ago today, August the 28th, that Mighty Morphin Power Rangers first aired. Five teenagers with attitude were selected by intergalactic being Zordon to save the world from Rita Repusla. Since then, the Power Rangers have been called upon to stop Lord Zedd, Hydro Hog, King Mondo, Divatox, Astronema, Trakeena, Queen Bansheera, Ransik, Master Org, Lothar, Mesogag, Emperor Grumm, The Master, Flurious, Dai’Shi, Venjix, Master Xandred, and now Vrak and his fellow evil space aliens.
We’ve had powers given to teenagers and young adults ranging from powerful magical coins to cell phones. We’ve had love and romance between characters, other characters whose search for their lost sibling lead them straight in to the maw of the enemy, and an even the son of two villains appear in order to take revenge on his parents being turned to the side of good.
We’ve had a number of colors – Red, Black, Blue, Yellow, Pink, Green, White, Gold, Silver, Titanium, Crimson, Navy, Shadow, Purple, and even a spoof by featuring an Orange one. We’ve had teams of Power Rangers start as small as three and become as large as nine (here’s looking at you, SPD Nova Ranger!). They’ve been based behind dinosaurs, ninjas, shapes, samurai, animals, cars, cars that are based on animals, and so much more.
And sadly we’ve lost actors behind some of our favorite characters – Trini, Ernie, U’Donna – and yet every year (or 2 years now) we’re introduced to a new set of characters, a new set of actors for us to fall in love with.
Give a roll call to your favorite Power Rangers series! Here, we’ll help:
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers – “It’s Morphin’ Time!”
Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers – “It’s Morphin’ Time!”
Power Rangers Zeo – “It’s Morphin’ Time!”
Power Rangers Turbo – “Shift in to Turbo!”
Power Rangers In Space – “Let’s Rocket!”
Power Rangers Lost Galaxy – “Go Galactic!”
Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue – “Lightspeed Rescue!”
Power Rangers Time Force – “Time For, Time Force!”
Power Rangers Wild Force – “Wild Access!”
Power Rangers Ninja Storm – “Ninja Storm, Ranger Form, Ha!”
Power Rangers Dino Thunder – “Dino Thunder, Power Up, Ha!”
Power Rangers SPD – “SPD Emergency!”
Power Rangers Mystic Force – “Magical Source, Mystic Force!”
Power Rangers Operation Overdrive – “Overdrive, Accelerate!”
Power Rangers Jungle Fury – “Jungle Beast, Spirit Unleashed!”
Power Rangers RPM – “RPM, Get in Gear!”
Power Rangers Samurai – “Go Go Samurai!”
Power Rangers Megaforce – “It’s Morphin Time, Go Go Megaforce!”

Say it with me now … GO GO POWER RANGERS!
