Yes, Operation Overdrive. Putting aside the Rangers willing to give up at a drop of a hat, Flurious gets punched a lot until the crown falls off and then gets vaporized. So much for the Corona Aurora which has been built up for a season.
at least saying "they have a window of opportunity of stopping Flurious before hegets the full power of the crown" or "the Red Sentinel Armor is like kryptonite towards the crown thanks to the sentinel knight once being the crown's protector" would be enough
@@ianr.navahuber2195 The finale fight made enough sense. This is a case of people looking for problems where none exist. Mack had to use his own battlizer to destroy his himself to take him down. He's an android. As far we can know, he let out enough more energy than a regular human. That part is always left out.
@@ianr.navahuber2195I thought it could’ve been like, since the Sentinel Knight was the protector of the crown, now that the crown’s complete and Mack’s currently fused with the Knight, Mack himself could absorb energy from the crown to use for himself. That way, it’d mean that only he, being an android who can endure that kind of force, and the one fused to the Sentinel Knight, would be the only one capable of fighting Flurious on an even ground.
Considering that Venjix is a virus and his own programming set itself on destroying humanity (including the humanity they infected him with), I'd say that debate is spot on, lol.
Operation Overdrive is so weak that I only remember It happened when other people mention It. Seriously, I'm not making this up, It simply doesn't exist in amongst my memories. The only thing I vaguely remember is that the Yellow Ranger was super hot, which can be said by the majority of PR seasons, so It doesn't help that much.
Why I can't hate Beast morphers season 2 ending: Venjix was beaten, that cliff hanger of 11 years was resolved and the happy ending of my favourite season is safe. So frankly im okay if the episode was weak.
It wasnt weak it was one of the best seasons weve had in years. It was well thought out, led in really well with easter eggs, and gave us steels happy ending. Finale was amazing.
@PitofFire10 so could it be possible that the original virus is still out there and Evox is just some spin off? I like this idea of Venjix being fragmented, it reminds me of the Warmind Rasputin from destiny.
@PitofFire10 Yeah even that still doesn’t entirely dissuade me because, if Venjix and the bit that became Evox did end up becoming separate entities, then I have a feeling that however large the rest of the Venjix Virus was, that it was probably 10 steps ahead and trying to come up with an escape plan. You have two equally smart AI’s, one is attempting to takeover the other to absorb it’s power, the other is bound to be trying to get out of there. Remember Venjix despises all living creatures and this larger chunk of it hasn’t been exposed to snake DNA, so when it sees Evox trying to absorb it, I imagine it would view Evox as a cancerous mutation, a corruption of what it is and seek to purge it. These two strains of the virus have been separate for atleast 12 years, ones been merged with Snake DnA and became Evox, the other has probably been lurking trying to come up with a plan to return and wipe out everything.
I find it kinda hilarious how often these bad finales end up devolving into "machines bad, humans good" when the very first active partner to the Power Rangers was *a goddamn robot.* The immense disrespect to Alpha, much less every other AI companion (RICK SAYS HELLO) is astounding. Alpha was part of the team as much as the Rangers were and always had their back no matter how bleak things got, no matter how bad his voice got. It's even more insane when several Rangers ARE robots, or at least cyborgs in Mack's case. Humanity (or at least the concept of a SOUL is what PR is constantly at odds with) is not determined by blood pumping through your veins, it's determined by your ability to grow and evolve over the course of your life.
I agree a pretty fair deal. At least the whole "becoming human" thing worked in RPM as the struggle wasn't so much contending with the fact Dillon was a machine, but rather that he was meant to be a Venjix weapon, I do think his changing back could have felt a little more earned, but it worked well enough and didn't enforce a "machines bad" message, more "evil machines bad" message.
Mack was an android, not a cyborg. Cyborgs are mostly human with robotic parts...androids are lifelike humanoid robots like Data from Star Trek. Dillon and Tanaya are cyborgs, Mack is an android. Incidentally, SPD actually got that mixed up, referring to the android S.O.P.H.I.E. as a cyborg....
@@newageBoundhippie to be fair the robot hate goes back a while, rember the robo ranger from lightspeed? or how the robo turbos were just deactivated, robots re useful tools but do you dare think they have souls

When you're talking good finales I hope you don't forget Jungle Fury. Casey and Jared's journeys are highlights of that season. Then again it would be hard to mention every good season finale in one video. Overall nice video Brain and I think the discussion format instead of a ranking video seems more fitting for this topic
As soon as I saw the title/thumbnail, I KNEW I couldn't wait to watch this video because this series as a whole has had some REAL stinkers that were more disappointing than the Wandavision finale was for those diehard theorist out there haha
@@icyhot8167 I thought it was bad, myself. I understand the disappointment of people theorizing more but in general, it was just too forced and quick for my liking. So much so, I'm totally fine with jumping ship off this new phase but that's just my take on it. It's good to have opinions.
Without all the crazy theories, I thought it was pretty underwhelming. The show started out small and focused and ended in a very cliche way for some reason, with Wanda telling Agatha “I know who I am” in a huge battle- even though this was a story about grief, not coming of age. Hayward turned into a one note evil guy, Wanda’s goodbye to the kids was a bit too chill and she got off scot free. Things really started veering off course with Agatha, who was charismatic but one dimensional, and took the focus off the much more interesting angle of Wanda being the villain.
I've said it before, but my biggest gripe with OO is the pinochio ending. Mack had accepted who and what he was. That was completely ignored moments later.
Hmm, I actually think the finale of Overdrive was pretty good. It redeemed a lot of the main cast. Then again that could just be me taking it easy with Overdrive because I never hated the season to begin with.
As someone who actually does like Operation Overdrive partly because I have nostalgic memories of it and I can appreciate what it's trying to do there are a lot of problems with its finale. I think you hit the main point of the problem with that wrap up scene being just so out of character and slightly patronizing with how it feels it needs to give a message at the end for the little children to learn. My main thing I want to add to this discussion is that Flurious using the Corona Aurora is such an underwhelming final boss. The enemies of this season is one of its best aspects with each of the villain factions being unique from eachother in their functions and capabilities. The Fearcats were the strongest solo fighters after their upgrades from Flurious, but introducing a new Cat in their final episode is unnecessary to add onto the Tyzonn angst, but it also undercuts their great introduction into the series. Also they should have sold the biggest problem with the Fearcats in that they are the only ones fighting the Rangers as opposed to to the grunts of Moltor and Flurious or the hired help of Kamdor and Miratrix. Speaking of Kamdor fighting for the final battle being a solo against Will is fitting, but overall he ends up being too evil and he doesn't even have the honorbound aspects of other similar PR villains like Treacheron, Ecliptor, or Deker. Miratrix actually has the best final fight of the villains even outclassing Flurious, the only undercut is that just being trapped by Kamdor is an underwhelming end unless we end up going back to her in a later season like with Venjix, or the Council of Evil from the MM to Space era villains. Moltor is the weakest of the villains because he doesn't have anyone to really play off asides from Flurious who always wins their verbal exchanges. I do like how he is finished off by Flurious in his moment of weakness though since that does fit with the idea of their characters. Flurious being the final boss does make sense for him to outlive the other villains, but he has such a weak final showing where he ends up even destroying the rest of his army with his power is somehow both not much of a threat while also being a klutz. Finally, I'm not the biggest Lost Galaxy fan, but Leo vs Trakeena in their final moments is pulled off soooo much better there than Mack vs Flurious.
Disney Brain: Ninja Steel had a lot of potential. Me: Yeah, Levi is hella fine. Disney Brain: Proceeds to talk about family/mentor relationships. Me: Oh. Yeah. My inner dialogue aside, I did have a lot of fun with the Ninja Steel seasons. They are rather campy, but I kind of compare them to the original MMPR. Plenty of cheese and camp, decent rangers, and some interesting enough plot lines. However, Ninja Steel is sure to be forgotten by many because it's so average and doesn't stand out in any way, shape or form.
It’s definitely Power Rangers on autopilot But I don’t think it really deserves the vitriol that fans gave it at the time compared to other seasons we had prior
The only Ninjas i know are Ninja Storm. Literally a better show in every possibly way. After barely getting through samurai i had to force myself to get through everything afterwards. I stopped watching when Beast Morphers aired and I realized power rangers will never be what it was. They’ve dumbed it down so bad even little kids don’t care anymore.
As much as I like Operation Overdrive and Beast Morphers s2, yeah in OO’s case the finale only works for Mack and Andrew. And for BM, yeah the recent of the finale was solid other than that. Respect on why the Super Ninja Steel finale didn’t work, because while I dislike the season, there were elements of that where it genuinely could’ve worked but didn’t thanks to elements they should’ve foreshadowed (Odius’s motivation), planned out (Romero’s family brawl...imagine if it was them fighting Dane like he was in season 1 and seeing how far they come), or with the theme of family, literally have all the family and allies throughout Super Ninja Steel find out about their identity, and choose to help fight since all of them have been fighting for them when they need more hope then ever.
Ninja steel feels like the biggest waste in terms of using the parents of the rangers. given is probably the only season where we know mostly ALL the parents of the rangers (if either they are alive or not, or if they are present or not, at least a mom or dad) or we have seen them interact with the rangers at least once except calvin's.
Thank you for addressing the Beast Morphers finale. It seems like so many people love it because it's RPM pt 2, but the finale really tried to pull of so many things that it didn't earn. Like when the entirely of Grid Battleforced proclaimed they would stay behind... didn't quite have the same impact as the end of In Space.
Operation Overdrive always felt a bit all over the place. It was tough for me to get to the end of it and I've tried to give it another chance. (In all honesty, the one scummy actor really puts me off from wanting to watch it). Overall, I do recommend giving the SS version, Boukenger, a chance Thanks for the vid! Glad to see thoughts on endings I pretty much felt the same about.
I second the Boukenger recommendation, I love that season! It really felt like a Sentai/Power Rangers take on Warehouse 13 as opposed to whatever the heck Overdrive was supposed to be...plus Mr Voice was awesome.
Fantastic video! Ok so, here's the deal about Venjix, a lil detail we didn't take into account because of how long it's been since the RPM finale: No matter how many forms he takes, Venjix is a virus, he made destroying humanity his one purpose for existing, and no matter how sentient he is, he's still a program, one that will do what it programmed itself to do. What I mean here is this: When they injected Venjix with "humanity", it's not that he couldn't stand being "human", it's just that his own internal programming detected the human factor and proceeded to destroy it from within, except it's now part of what Venjix is, so his own body is self-destructing, and there's nothing he can do about it. The one villiain in Power Rangers that succeded in taking over humanity... Died by irony... And I love that! Steel had no problem with humanity or being human because he never held any issues with humanity, to the contrary, he loved humans, and he had the time of his life hanging out with the rangers and getting to know the world, he share's Nate's DNA, so he's also carrying a "brotherly" kinda blood bond with Nate. I know Beast Morphers took a completley different direction in Season 2, but I am all for it, the dumb little fanservice moments were something I was craving since Megaforce was too busy creating new Ranger Teams while blatantly ignoring and even mocking it's own history...
I feel like you don't get Beast Morpher's ending when it came to defeating Vengix. The thing they did, as strange and sci-fi mumbo jumbo as it is, is that they made Vengix more human and as such his virus itself died out. Vengix without a computer to sustain it has nothing and since Steel at that point was out of commission? He had nowhere to go. In RPM Vengix could never control the human part of people, just the machine aspect of them as we had seen a couple of times throughout and also the fact that he had been making people more machine than man to control them. So the way Vengix is defeated isn't "Oh no I hate being human! Nooooo!" It's more "Oh crap I can't exist in something mostly organic" which caused him to become basically useless and destroyed.
I'd like to actually put a contender up there, not so much as "worst", but something that falls into these categories, the RPM finale. Now, don't get me wrong, I think RPM is a great PR show, easily one of the best, but there is a lot wrong with the finale in regards to Venjix and how unearned everything feels. Dillon is kind of in the same realm as Mack with the whole "being a machine" thing, however, the struggle between the two is vastly different, as Mack struggles with being a machine and Dillon being a Venjix weapon that could turn at any moment. Though, I do feel Dillon's change back to human just felt a *little* unsatisfying, as he, while he was struggling, mostly just went over the cure and injected it, fixing his whole problem. But that's the minor issue of the finale, the other thing is the battle against Venjix. The entire series builds up this whole theme about humanity and how they always find a way to come on top, and you'd think that the main three Rangers would fight Venjix unmorphed and use their skills as humans to find a way to beat Venjix, but instead Gem and Gemma just drop a building on Venjix and end the fight, that's not a satisfying conclusion as it defeats the whole purpose of the narrative thread that had been set up. I get they probably only had a limited amount of time to work with, but it's not like they couldn't have removed the behind the scenes episode and gave more time to flesh out the finale (as far as I know, there could have been something budget-related keeping them from doing so that I don't know about). But yeah, in short, RPM builds up a heavy theme of the resourcefulness of humanity and how they never give up, and then building drops and ends it.
For me, the only good parts of Operation Overdrive are the opening and morphing sequence, Ronnie (obviously), Rose (especially Pirate Rose), Tyzonn (his rivalry with the Fearcats), Spencer (the moral support), the Zords and Megazords (the ultrazord reveal was tight), Kandor and Miratrix, the Fearcats, the Once a Ranger crossover, and the Mack plot twist. The rest was awful. Especially Dax. And Will. And Norm. And Sentinel Knight. And the finale. Like, 8 year old me guessed that Flurious would end up with the Corona Aurora, on the first few eps. It was predictable, but I looked forward to the aforementioned good parts.
Why does everyone not like Dax? Also personally I liked Will, I like the rivalry he had with Mack early on and his issue with working on his own, its what I always imagined the Black Ranger to act like.
@@InitialPC To be fair, Will does get some character growth as the season goes on. But Dax... you know how if you don't have something helpful to say, then don't say it? Dax is not that kind of dude. The writing makes him say unfunny jokes, forced comedy, and sometimes hurtful statements, plus his comic relief clashes with Norms comic relief. In short, he's a bit annoying.
@Obadiah Abilio Transformers, at least at this point, is very much an "everyone" franchise with widespread content for adults, kids, families, teens, etc. PR is more focused on kids with a few things for older audiences.
I watched the whole of Ninja Steel and was looking forward to the red and gold rangers dad being an important role in Super Ninja Steel, but then he just wasn't and the two rangers acted like he never existed. I literally forced myself too watch a series I didn't really like, only to have plot points be thrown away from one half of the series, to the next.
FR!! He had much potential to be a supporting part take in the series but they wasted him...they've could've made him train the rangers(besides Brody and Aiden/Levi) like ACTUAL ninjas, explore about his past of how he became a ninja master or what happened to his wife (Brody and Aiden/Levi's mom)(they said she was gone but never gave us a specific reason for why), or seeing him and the Romero brothers reconciling and reconnecting as a family again.... Ps: the first season was fine(minus the debut of the gold ranger) but i couldn't bare watching the super season, it was very messy
@@ChrisTian-ed8ol although i DID like the series, there was just chessy nonsense stuff and too much filler in the episodes(some in first season, alot in the super season) that ruined the vibe of it, they could've use anything from Brody's backstory or anything interesting about the rangers or Dane FOR those episodes. but NO they threw it out like it was nothing....do i even have to get started how they had Sledge come back for a short minute of time for only two episodes, ruined the Ranger's characters (especially Sarah's) made damage in Calvin and Hayley's relationship and other stuff.....
@@cyberbeautygiselle7413 probably you do have to mention it. I never finished the SNS series because of how much they threw out from NS. I did come back for the team up episodes, but only the team up Eps. Those weren't half bad, but that was the only SNS highlight.
@@ChrisTian-ed8ol they had the chance to use anything from the first season. Anything! Heck even add a small interaction between Dane and Sarah since she found his old trophy in the school's trophy cabinet that had the Ninja Steel in it, this series had a decent start to it to be just as good but they threw all that away:(
Beast Morpher's Season 2 works if you think of it more from the karmic sense. Allow me to explain: Venjix/Evox despises humanity. Throughout both RPM and Beast Morphers, he has made no secret of how inferior he sees humans compared to himself, to the point where he almost wiped out the entire human race. And even when he needed a human body to survive, he could barely maintain his cover long enough to set his endgame in motion. Thus, him being defeated by human DNA becomes more about him getting his just desserts and not just "humanity the virus." Its like Summer said: "The most imperfect human is better than the most perfect machine." Steel, on the other hand, desired nothing more than to be human his entire run of the show, being his second most important arc alongside his relationship with Nate. But at the same time, he doesn't hate himself for being a robot, and instead focuses on learning what it means to be human. Thus, when he sacrifices himself to stop Venjix, The Morphing Masters (who probably were behind his transformation, given what we learn in Dino Fury) saw his sacrifice as worthy enough to earn him his wish. Overall, the message in Beast Morphers is that humanity, flawed as we are, is capable of accomplishing great things and to not give up hope even in the darkest times, fitting considering the world events that were occurring during season 2.
They shouldve had the rpm rangers team up with the beast morpher rangers and taken out venjix together. That wouldve been epic. The writers threw away a valuable opportunity.
When you said “he’s part robot” I instantly thought of the scene from the Teen Titans cartoon where they tried, and failed, to tackle the topic of racism. But with a certain someone being “part robot” so he understands.
The best endings : turbo, in space, lost galaxy, time force( jen and wes should have kissed idc), wild force, ninja storm, dino thunder, spd, jungle fury, rpm, samurai,
Does Mack even have DNA to be a father himself making Mack and Andrew more like brothers not legitimately having a child then Nate and (Steel who has Nate's DNA his father and the Beetle DNA from his mother)
Honestly the thing that bothered me about beast morfers is that in the start two of the fully trained would be power rangers are in a coma and then the plot is about waking them up. Fine. But then they wake up and never try to reclaim the positions they were training for. They never even become like the rainbow power rangers or anything like that. They just give up the thing they had been working for. Because god forbid Rose be a better fit as a power ranger rather that londery girl
Blaze and Roxy were severly wasted. Not helped that at one point, when the staff was thinking about adapting Kyuuranger for a season, they planned to have Blaze as the red ranger there. but because that didn't happen they feel extra wasted.
I thought of a Power Rangers concept about knights from medieval times becoming power Rangers but without any technology, so they would use magic to morph and instead of robots there zords would be more like stone golems, and that way they can transform into the megazord and they can also be themed around mythical creatures like a Dragon, Griffin or Cetus.

It's weird how Operation Overdrive and Beast Morphers were so fixated on turning Cyborgs and Robots into humans, like every other PR show that had Robot/Cyborg characters like Roboknight and Dillon had no issues with them being robots
at least mack's case works given the nature of the plot twist and comments of sentinel knight of "i fought side by side with him (literally given they fused as red sentinel), and i felt his heart, yet you tell me he was not alive?" although i wish they showed mack's "corpse" as in WAY more damaged to make the scene stand out even more when he becomes human. in steel's case it really doesn't as even from the beginning he showed being fine being a reverse cyborg (a robot with human DNA). even bragging about it. he only desired to being able to eat and probably feel and smell, but that was it. is not helped that only steel gets turned into human, making it look like he got "preferential treatment" over the other beast bots like cruise, jax and smash.
I like listening to your vids, Disney Brain, but recommend you get a pop filter for your mic. Threw this on my TV and the plosives on "p" sounds frequently blow out the audio a noticeable amount.
99.9% agree with you on Journey's End, the 00.1% only being the Astro Megaship's destruction and loss of DECA man I miss those things...wish it could've made it to Mirinoi :C
There is one small detail I like when it comes to overdrive and it's one I've never really seen anyone talk about and it's with the villains moltor and flurious because if you think about it, it started with them being the main villains and after everything it technically finished with them being the main villains (and yes I know flurious destroyed his own brother to be the final villain but they were the last 2 villains left to be beaten if flurious hadn't of betrayed moltor aka his own brother)
I can't imagine Dino Fury having a good ending when the series runs it's course. It has to live up to being the last season of Power Rangers and previously the two seasons that have been forced to be the last Power Rangers shows (In Space and RPM) elevated the show to new heights. I know barely anything about Dino Fury and to end the TV series on it isn't going to end well.
This is my take on beast morhpers on the human AI front, which i personally find you a bit too critical: FOr me evox being Venjix, I just take that when Nate Messed with the tech, it also altered Venjix personality, not the best explanation, but you kind of have to work with Sentai footage, but considering it added depth to Doctor K with Nate, its more than worth it. But Steel wanting to be human, I kind of think you missed the point: it less about Humanity, but being able to feel senses he couldn't as a human. It more clear in the episode "The Silva Switch". Nate in a robot body can't do the things he realizes takes for granted-eat ice cream, and do wild other things. Steel, in Nate human lived it up, doing things Nate doesn't really do- like surfing. I feel more like the theme is to not take your life for granted- enjoy the little things with senses- kind of like Soul. Considering its ends with the same song from The Silva Switch" I think that the main message. I think its the same as Chaku, he being fighting all his life, not being able to do the things we take for granted, like being with family-its also to suit the theme that there more than life to being a warrior as well that PR usually goes for. The bit where Evox is beaten by humanity, for me is kind of like more of a metaphor for a virus being beaten by a human immune system, but the immune system only works if the sprit is strong. So It basically a metaphor for the Rangers will power, not given up, the sprit of their living beasts, that's what beat Evox. That what I felt before I saw this video, but yeah. Kind of hope you see this comment and tell me what you think of this interpretation?
PROO gets one note of credit for me. The Battlizer actually beat the last boss. Love those things especially during Disney Era but no other one finished the season's big bad.
Hasbro bought Power Rangers during the post production of Beast Morphers so everything was already in place and all Hasbro did was the post production stuff
@@Knightfall182 Except that's not true. Because and Awyln are the only real people involved from previous seasons. Most of the people in charge are new or relatively new like Simon Bennet.
@@Knightfall182 He was only a director. He had no input on anything outside directing the scenes that were written. As for defending the fart joke, lighten up. He was obviously having fun because he knows people hate it. It's not like he wrote it. He goes on Rangerboard to talk about a lot of things.
I am among the few who liked overdrive (my opinion might change if i rewatch it though) and i agree. i just wished it had better budget to truly show case . maybe also saying "they need to stop flurious FAST while he doesn't has the full power of the crown yet". Although then again after rewatching some ranger seasons i realized some stuff: - In Space is a great anniversary finale season but as a stand alone season it is kinda.... eh. it is like a 70 /100 but because it is building upon what was done before, the ex-turbo rangers feel kinda out of focus, with only carlos and ashley getting genuine focus, and TJ while not getting true focus he at least feels like "the reliable one of the group that doesn't stands out but keeps everything together". if anything the villains stand out more than the heroes in this season. - I ended up loving Wild Force way more than people give it credit. Sure it has a rough start especially the whole "Cole becomes leader because he is red", but once we start getting to the episode with Taylor getting the bear brothers, it gets good. Jindrax and Toxica are entertaining. AND even the much despised Animus arc has great moments like the Taming of the Zords episode or Team Carnival episode - I actually ended up disliking Dino Thunder as a standalone season even if I think it is an amazing Anniversary season to both power rangers and super sentai. i loved the many ways dino thunder managed to cramp up weird super sentai elements (they even adapted super sentai's seasonal christmas special, despite those usually being near impossible to adapt), but i disliked how their characters were kinda wasted potential while also being inconsisten to a degree even if it wasnt' really obvious. Ethan for example starting the series as apparently a prankster given how he activates sprinklers as a joke, yet that element never gets refernces ever again. or how conner while at first being portrayed as "jerk with heart of gold that needs to become better" (better showcased in how what convinces him to become full ranger is helping a little girl), the series usually treated him more as "our lovable idiot" rather than a real jerk. it even forgot conner's moment of becoming better (the scene with the girl a mentioned) in the recap episode that said how much they have grown. and in the final the "how much they have grown up" kinda gets tossed out of the window given in the first part of the finale we have conner doing a "tier list of the most beautiful girls" as a joke and next episode we have him acting like he has grown out of that playboy phase (which i am sorry, you cannot do that, if the immediate previous episode you had him do that joke). Kira's plot kinda is a case of "we are gonna start something, then ignore it" case of arcs, first her being the most unwilling to become a ranger, then easily adapting, then the thing with trent which sadly kinda gets forgotten later. Tommy kinda works despite sometimes having occasional plots making you ask "what?" (like the monster tommy made that could mind control people). but after years of being used as the poster boy for the franchise, i see him and feel a little tired of tommy and trent is somehow the most wasted character yet the most interesting character. the meteorite episode should have had him him help the rangers release tommy oliver. only for him to become full evil once the meteorite gets destroyed and its invertion effects wore off and then realizing "we lost trent". And when trent joins the rangers again, he should act a little bit more "sorry". I don't know, he kinda glosses over any sense of guilt while he was evil. which is weird given previous rangers like tommy and karone or merrick feeling at least something in the immediate episode after they join the good side. trent kinda just acts like "i know i did bad stuff, but i am good know, so everything is fine now". And the show treat him getting the tirumph shield as his "earning the others trust" moment but kinda feels like trent's integration into the team gets glossed over because the power up. AND I KNOW they couldn't do a lot with Trent in ranger form because budget but they could have tried something low budget cost like have trent in ranger form try to act like a typical boyscout, rescuing cats from trees, helping old ladies cross the street and so on. it would fit trent's characterization and arcs of loving super heroes, trying to earn the team's (and the city's) trust, and it would even make sense to have cassidy and devin interview him in ranger form
I find it funny how weird the writing these days is. To anyone who hasn't been paying attention, basically every episode since Dino Charge (with VERY few exceptions) has had the three same writers. Judd "Chip" Lynn, Becca Barnes, and Alwyn Dale. As such, writing errors are especially agregious to me since it's not like before where there were fifteen writers at once.
And even then, I've always found Lynn's writing style hit or miss. Whenever he becomes head writer and\or producer, he likes to start off with a clean slate and ignore past writer's ideas. For better and for worse. He's a major reason why Dino Charge was good compared to Megaforce. And wasn't just "Kyoryuger in English." On the flip side, he is also the reason the early Turbo plots of the Millennium Message and Dimitria sister plots as well as Flynn's daddy issues go nowhere for instance.
Beast Morphers season 2 finale was great. Evox is revealed to be Venjix reincarnated. Dr.K comes back for some advice. The final battle was intense & awesome. And Steel becomes a real human boy.
Yeah, I didn’t get OO’s finale either. What’s the point of making Mack human if he accepted not being human and I don’t get how Daxx wanted to be a director. I think it would make much more sense if he try to be an actor who does his own stunts.
Im still not sure wich season is worse. Turbo or Overdrive. Turbo had atleast a decent endgame because of what it was leading up to. Overdrive on the other hand did EVERYTHING wrong. Even the aniversary teamup is one of the worst
Turbo was at least fun in a cheesy kind of way ( minus the asinine "find the bomb" gimmick in the first half of the season...and Bulk & Skull being monkeys over the same timeframe, which got old fast )...Overdrive just tripped over itself every 5 minutes ( and I'm certain I'd feel the same way even if I hadn't seen Go-Go Sentai Boukenger first ) and Dax often took chewing the scenery to a new level
the beast morphers finale does'nt belong here at all, it was NOWHERE near that bad and the fact that you think so means you need to rewatch the actually bad finale's again to have a reminder of what poor Power rangers quaility actually looks like. Combined together I put Beast morphers at a good solid 8.5/10 and I'm quite happy to do so. It was'nt perfect but it did alot more right than wrong.
Who alse try there best to understand what disney brain was trying to explain why this finales where so bad but was confuse with all of the conversation enyway
I still wonder if people like Super sentai better than the american adaptation of super sentai,power rnagers and also i do love power rangers and super sentai and kamen rider but i lean more towards to sentai and kamen rider,also they had space sheriff tooo???
Beast Morphers season 2 finale was great as a whole its not the worst, if anything its probably the best finale ive seen in years and way better than Ninja Steel
Title of this video: Worst finales Open the video: we have commentaries on all the seasons, not just the finale, but every plot, every character, every concept and crossover ever presented... come and be bored.
@@batmanbeyond5766 he made the list in two parts: first part was seasons that didn't fit in the top 10 but were either still good or just whatever. The second part was the actual worst seasons.
You bring up good points about Beast Morphers's finale, yet I still like it. I don't know after watching it I just felt good. End of Extinction to me is worse than all the finales in this video though. I don't like Ninja Steel at all, but End of Extinction got worse over time. Because the presence of original Sledge confirms all the horrible implications of that finale. The Dino Charge Rangers destroying Earth and just going to an alternate one separate from the one they knew.
@@Knightfall182 I'm fine with PR dancing like idiots, we've had sugar sweet finales before. It's the whole "being human is great" while their Beast Bots are there, the most background devices of the season.
