Being a child of... I forget, This show blew me away with what seemed great action and fx. Also who could forget dear old Bulk and Skull. Being older it still is fun to look back on and see how different it looks. It may look silly and cheap in the eyes of adults but to a child it just felt great. There wasn't much of a long plot going on which made it good as if you missed an episode it didn't matter, but saying that the zord changes were good and it made the show more interesting. When will people learn that a young child doesn't care much for plots, that has to wait for when they are a little older. Saddly when they made the zeo series, it would just never be the same. The new series tried too hard. Even as a child I never liked them. Maybe it was the new suits, I mean who designed them? And power rangers in space? It may have appealed to others but I think they should have stayed where they were. Simple enemies that would use the same techniques over and over. Make a monster that starts human size and then grow. And you knew that when they grow the show would almost be over. Oh and I must be dumb to forget the theme tune. I've check and they never made a slightly good theme tune again until this so call wild force series. This show was indeed a classic and I demand they stop making new ones and show the original again for the new generation.
I was a Power Rangers fan when it first came out, (can you believe it?) but looking back, I noticed that it's a little messed up.
Although a lot of it didn't really look all that great, remember this: THE SHOW WAS MEANT FOR A YOUNG AUDIENCE!!! It was supposed to be dorky!
Like many fans my age, we were all in awe as we watched Tommy lose his powers, but then briefly regain them only to have the green ranger powers taken away again.
I'm also guessing that those that watched this for the first time didn't know the identity of the white ranger until part two of "The White Light."
Of course, during the 3rd season, it was kind of hard to follow... so I stopped watching until Zeo.
Recently, it's grown into a guilty pleasure for me, so I only watch it in secret.
As far as the rating goes, it's at least a 7.

How can u NOT like power rangers? For a 6 year old it was the coolest thing in the world. Good dialogue? Plot lines? Cheesy one liners? Sure they're there, but honestly, do u think a child would REALLY take those into account when thinking whether a show is good or bad? The problem with all u people is that u look at it with an adults point of view. Ask ANY child's opinion, and they would claim that MMPR is one of the best things since sliced bread.
I'm 19 now, and i still love watching it cos of the fond memories it brings back. I'm sure many of those around my age bracket still do too. Hell, its hilariously poor, but there is always that little part of me that turns back into a 6 year old kid, and cheers the Power Rangers on.

A very fun concept: A team of teenagers with attitude are recruited to save Angel Grove from evil. There are fisticuffs back and forth with those who claim to work for justice. All the characters struggle against a system that has perpetuated falsehoods. Against this backdrop, our heroes must fight. The acting is effective, save for a couple of scenes. The metaphors in this show are so abundant, it takes three or four viewings to catch them all. I was deeply impressed, but from an artistic standpoint, there were some plot elements and character developments I didn't think were totally needed. This was done superbly without overdoing it.
I used to watch "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers" when I was younger back when it began in 1993 when I was 6 years old. I used to watch it with my neighbors and after the show we used to act it out. I was always the pink ranger and my sister was always the yellow ranger.
My favorite characters were the pink ranger and the red ranger. My favorite episodes, as I recall, were: "Happy Birthday, Zack", "No Clowning Around", and "A Bad Reflection on You". I also had many of the "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers" videos. I used to watch the videos all the time.
I only liked the "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers", none of the "Power Rangers" spin offs. I found the spin offs to be stupid. I give the "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers" 9/10 stars and all of the following spin offs 2/10 stars.

Did you know
- TriviaIn the original Japanese footage, the Yellow Ranger was male. This is why the Pink Ranger has a skirt, but Yellow doesn't.
- GoofsThe battle footage is composed of Japanese footage from the Zyuranger Super Sentai series. This normally is not a problem, but if one looks closely, there are a few scenes where the word "Zyuranger" can be seen on the Rangers' Power Morphers/Blade Blasters/Weapons/etc.
- Quotes
[Season 1 intro beginning]
Rita Repulsa: Ahh! After 10,000 years, I'm free! It's time to conquer Earth!
Zordon: Alpha, Rita's escaped! Recruit a team of teenagers with attitude.
- Crazy creditsDuring the third season, bloopers and extended scenes were often played during the end credits.
- Alternate versionsThe pilot version of the first episode, "Day of the Dumpster", was shown on the Fox Kids programming block in 1999. There are several differences between it and the television series:
- 'Trini' was played by a different actress, Audri Dubois, and had a completely different personality and nationality.
- 'Zordon' was named 'Zoltar' and the image of his head in a tube was also blurred and somewhat pulsating.
- There was no juice bar. Instead, the Earth-based scenes took place in a bowling alley.
- The Command Center's interior had different control panels and lighting.
- The plating on Alpha 5's upper torso was notably larger and didn't have the familiar "lightning bolt" logo.
- Flyguy (renamed King Sphinx in the series) battled the rangers with 'Goldar'.
- The Dinozords were known as Dinodroids.
- There was a Bulk character, but no Skull character. Instead, there were three other bullies/punks alongside Bulk.
