I found it interesting that Ransik is just as much a father as he is a criminal when he encountered Wes' dad. He sounded downright put off when he thought Wes was thrown out of his father's life. And given that we know Ransik's love for his child was stronger than his hate for humanity, it makes some sense that even he'd think a father rejecting his son is messed up. Considering that mutants are the result of genetic experiments, it can be assumed that they're humans with severely damaged DNA and possibly predisposed to violence because of how many mistakes were made in the process of creating perfect designer babies.
A lot of this makes sense when you realise that the Mutants are deliberately written to be pseudo sympathetic (Venomark and Vexicon not withstanding). The year 3000 is written to be socially and systemically racist ala 1960's America in the typical PG-13 way and it's heavily implied that most Mutants are only evil since they need to survive. Notacon is obviously the biggest example of this; steals a watermelon to live and is thrown in the same prison as a KKK-like venomous abomination and Brickneck the hit-man. I'd say I was reading way too far into this but Marchand has confirmed that the writing staff wanted this to be the very deliberate subtext.
Me too. I've always liked Wes but rewatching this season made me love him more. He played both characters well. I didn't care for Alex but I loved Wes. Wes will always be one of the greatest red rangers for me.
Ya know something really funny? Trip and Lucas were the first acting roles of Kevin Kleinburg and Michael Copon; the former coming straight out of secondary school to get the role and the latter starting as a model whose agency convinced him to go into acting.
@@luisumana1238 this pre-Disney crap gets even weirder. The romance between Jen and Wes? Almost didn't happen due to Tzachor's policy of no explicit romance since he felt children would be bored to years. This dumb as fuck rule was why Tommy and Kimberly's romance was rarely mentioned and why Jake and Gia's romance can barely be considered a footnote. For Time Force, he just said "fuck it, why not" and allowed it for once. Fun fact, after Lynn and Marchand left post-Time Force, he hired Tarou Sakamoto (no apparent relation to Koichi from what I can tell, they're both just Japanese) to more faithfully adapt Gaoranger for Wild Force. It's the reason why that one guy directed two thirds of Wild Force. Even odder. Jessica Rey\Alyssa initially thought that she was being hired for just a walk-on role in a nothing episode and that was it. She was very confused when she was asked back for a third audition. And a lot of these actors I notice were long term fans of the show. Philip Jeanmarie\Max, Copon, and Aljin Abella\Theo all grew up watching it. Small world. Another fun fact; the Clock Tower, Cryo Prison and Animarium were all designed by the same woman Julie Bolder who also found much of the crap used on the sets. Apparently, Wild Force was also rushed through development which is why so much felt rushed. Why was it rushed? My guess is that this was around the time that Saban and Disney were negotiating and they needed a season to broadcast on Jetix\Disney XD. How they got onto the Animarium was also intentionally vague and Tzachor told anyone who asked that it was magic and the same reasoning was used for that pool they used to see Orgs. This show's production is oddly more interesting than the show at times.
You question how Alex is bad at leading the team. You have to remember that Jen and the others were NOT rangers at that time. Alex was the only Power Ranger in the future. So Alex was more like their commander giving orders and Jen was the leader. Alex wasn't their Red Ranger leader. He was simply their commander in cheif. You know this because Jen hands the others morphers once in the year 2001 But since they were not previously rangers theirs had to be unlocked by the red rangers. That's why Alex isn't a good ranger leader. In the future He never lead a ranger team, he was a loan power ranger. Wes became a leader after trail and error. Wes was also friendly and listened to what the others said. where Alex used to doing things alone saw them only as back up support. Subordinates who should only speak when spoken to.
A very good point, but it still doesn't change how odd it was that he seemed like a completely different person when he came back versus when he started. The others should know exactly how he acts but they treated him more like a foreigner than anything. And in episode 2, that same team seemed excited by the idea of seeing an Alex look a like, so clearly he did something right leadership wise before almost dying.
Before i found out about the sentai and poor writing i simply blamed it on cosmic retcon. The temporal changes that revived Alex also changed his personality and the other rangers didn't know because they were retcon proofed as shown when Katie went to the wild west and changed history.
Plus, you also have to remember that they hinted at some of their actions possibly affecting the future timeline. Their actions in the present may have affected Alex, to where not only does he not die to Ransik, but he also gets a personality shift.
Not quite Jen and the others were always time force even when they went back into the past. They might have been a little loose in terms of discipline because Jen didn't have the same kind of control of the team as alex.
I just started watching MMPR on Netflix out of curiosity about 6 months ago, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Since then I've been watching Linkara AT4W's recap/reviews and I ended up having to stop the Time Force one part way through because I was getting so invested in the recap I had to watch it for myself, and dang. That was a seminal season. Everything feels like a cut above for Power Rangers, the acting especially. But the suits, the storylines, the level of physical violence, the character dynamics, it all just works so well. It's by no means perfect, but it just feels like Power Rangers elevated to a higher standard. WhenI got to the episode Jen's Revenge, I knew I'd keep watching. I love that the Pink Ranger is the leader of the team instead of Red, and she is a legitimately good leader. And the fact that she has the strongest motivation to complete their task adds to her ability to bolster her team and protect them at all costs, even if it means putting herself in danger to keep them safe. She is definitely a contender for my top 10 female characters of all time.
This is literally one of my favorite season. I met them last month in Long Island. Erin hugged me cause I told her I had a crush on her while watching this season 😁
A lot of the time travel inconsistencies and the year 3000 thing is actually based off the sentai Timeranger. Timeranger was released in 2000 and Alex was a jerk because his counterpart Captain Ryouma was the main villain who masterminded Ransik's counterpart escape to manipulate the timestream so he wouldn't die at the expense of destroying all of Japan. Timeranger had even more emphasis on its destiny theme since time travel was so heavily studied that society was considered preordained and that nothing could be done to change it.
Also, Timeranger is one of few seasons which ended on bittersweet note. Red and Pink will never see each other again, Green lives in Future as last remaining example of his species, Blue will die because of Cancer within the year and Yellow will live knowing he will never meet his own son.
I figured as much, but my point about the year 3000 was more about that beyond adaptation, nothing really binds them to that year specifically. And almost one thousand years in the future? Seems like way more would have changed to the point of barely recognizing what we would see as almost current humanity.
Not really, i believe it's more about human concepts. Twenty years ago humanity would have never conceived iPods so i'm guessing that the "Year 3000" is the future as humanity in the year 2000 could comprehend it. Basically 3000 was a random number the Japanese writers thought would be cool and symbolic. They could have used any year and gotten away with it
Actually Ransik does have a Japanese counterpart. Kind off... The fat toad guy that serves as comic relief and has a crush on Nadira. His name in Japan is Don Dolnero and he has most of Ransik's story but he gets upstaged by Ryoma who is Alex's Japanese counterpart at the end.
damn thank you for reopening and reminding me about the actual time travel aspect of this as opposed to the 1st time I saw it, man know that opens a whole new can of time travel worms that's just gonna be a pain in the ass to try and figure out as if the avengers endgame and doctor who weren't bad enough already.
I personally think that Alex is 'Time Anomaly' so to speak, The brief view we get of him in the opening he never comes off as much of an asshole that he does later on. By this point they've already been talking about how the future is actively changing, with at least one event with that machine of Wes' father being the one that tips them off that the stuff they are doing now is having effects on the future. While never really explained, it seems to me that it makes more sense that This Alex is alive due to something in the past changing some element in the future. This gets into the butterfly effect of how even small things can have bigger effects never imaged. This Alex that lived, is either harsher in general or becomes that way because he sees how things are being changed (Time Force seems like they actively monitor this stuff), so he tries to help his team but also get things resolved before they do even more damage... Till he has enough and decided he needs to do it himself. Also, for as much of an asshole that Alex is, wow, is his Sentai counterpart /even worse/. Alex is a tame puppy dog compared to Ryuya.
@@ChoaiDode Ryuya is basically responsible for everything that happens in the series. He does all the bad shit Alex does, but he's also responsible for Frax's counterpart going insane as he did, actively tries to sabotage the rangers, and is largely the main antagonist of the series. Like Alex is still a good guy at heart, basically an anti-hero; he wants the best for everyone and the future. Ryuya manipulates everything behind the scenes because he seen a vision of his own death and is trying to make a 'better future' where he doesn't die. Rangerwiki has a comparison pages that gives a simple idea of where they differ: powerrangers.fandom.com/wiki/Comparison:Captain_Ryuya_Asami_vs._Alex
@@ChoaiDode He was. He was the true main antagonist and a complete bastard, In terms of Sentai evil, he is somewhere between N';Ma who wanted to plunge the universe into eternal hell and Agent Abrella the murderous arms merchant who destroyed galaxies for money. His sole motivation was to prevent himself from dying as TimeFire which would have happened in the Great Annihilation (the equivalent to the events of "The End of Time.") When that was averted and the Timerangers came back to confront him, he tried to murder them with his own forces before wrestling with Lucas' counterpart over a gun and then being fatally shot in the stomach. His final words were literally "Six years have passed. But...it still ends the same way."
Came across these as my big re dive back into Power Rangers and Time Force has always been my favorite season. Eric is my absolute favorite Ranger 100% and you did his analysis justice, along with everything else.
Hey Disney Brain, I honestly wish that besides the 2017 Power Rangers movie, that they portray a ranger that has ASD. I honestly believe that a good storyline for said character would be showing his/her struggle to make friends, his schedule habits, and the stimulus overload that may overwhelm him/her with their ranger duties. The ending for that would show us the progress he's made mentally and how much they mature over the course of the season to the finale.
Well when you said that s.p.d's concepts of oppression of aliens comes to fruition, it can be seen as a greater connection of plot points as we know that S.P.D does have their own version of time force. Either Time force connection was right or this is the future Wes grew up in that we are seeing and still oppression still carries on.
Alex being alive makes sense. We see him pass out but never did they check to see if he was still alive. They ran from the scene to time travel. So they do not know what happened to him. For all we know as soon as they left Time Force medics could have arrived to save his life.
Few things 1. Probably top 2 with in space for all time favorite season 2. Jen is my all time favorite ranger 3. Ransik favorite all time villain 3b. I've seen all subbed episodes of timeranger (super sentai counterpart) where the villains I found to be below average besides being all killers. So looking back I appreciate what they did with ransik 10000000x more
Actually Villains in Timeranger had more interesting schemes. They are actual mafia with crime all over. But none of them is real main villain. Alex counterparter is.
I thought about it for a bit, Lucas may have left racing due to the Dash incident, so he decided to serve his community as a Time Force member. This is just my perception, but Lucas leaving his racing career to be a part of Time Force is him 'changing his destiny'.
Neo Nightwing the best season for me personally. I remember being 6 and watching dino thunder, realizing that I missed time force even though I remembered it being around and already having had the action figures for the series. I started with ninja storm but came back to wild force and time force. Two of my favorite seasons.
And guess what, disney era power rangers. Nobody cares.. Quit your damn complaining about this season already and grow the hell up. Seriously, you are an embarrassment to this franchise and to power rangers in general, you damn fanboy.
Love your Power Rangers videos! This is the exact kind of thematic analyses I love seeing that Power Rangers often doesn't get enough of. Excited to see more, good and bad.
In terms of the original Saban produced series Time Force is arguably the best with only In Space being able to really compete with it in terms of show quality. As for Disney seasons, Dino Thunder and SPD are certainly on a similar level of quality along with RPM. For me personally Time Force, has been and always will be in my mind the best season of Power Rangers bar none. It was the first season I got really invested in as a kid and I would watch each episode every chance I got. I loved the characters, the theme song, the action, the story. It was even the first Power Rangers season I ever bought on DVD and I even managed to meet the actors for Wes and Jen recently who signed it for me. It's a part of my childhood and I love it
With the return of Alex, it was either speculated or was going to be put in/implied that the team actually did alter the future slightly and that that was why Alex is alive.
The Power Rangers franchise seems to be giving us a lot of redeemed villains - Ransik, Nadira and Astronema are mentioned in this vid, but there's also Jendrix and Toxica from Wild Force, Jarrod and Camille from Jungle Fury and, more recently, Heckyl from DinoCharge. Wouldn't it be amazing if they had an episode where the monster's power can be beaten if his victim has direct experience of being evil and the Rangers have to get the reformed bad guys to sub for them in order to beat him!
One of the best seasons that Power Rangers has produced. I loved the review that you have out and especially that it was halved into two videos. Time Force could probably have a bunch of videos breaking down the bad and the good of series, the morality questions it proposes, and obviously how time travel works in the Morphinverse. Good work!
Wait, if Power Ranger time travel involves changing the future but not the one you came from, thus creating alternate timelines, then does that mean that RPM is a possible future as well?
Wait, was summer landau she's from RPM. So somewhere on earth is the super think tank that DrK was working at. If those guys just let her go outside when she wanted, vengix wouldn't have existed. The earth wouldn't have been destroyed.
I really loved when Steelix turned Jen evil and she attacked Wes and he was able to bring her back, ah a love that stood the test of TIME lol, yeah I love cheesy puns too Disney Brain
What if Lucas was a fanboy of Turbo & that’s why he has a love for racing! I mean they are from the year 3000 & say for instance he ran across an archive on Tommy & the turbo rangers and was fascinated with the turbo zord “Lightning cruiser” 🤷🏽♂️ just a thought!
On the Vipra thing I always liked to think that she talked like that because she was a demon not used to the human english way of speaking (Like a weird accent)
A couple of points that I might add to your analysis of time force. 1. The cyclobots were actually time force property that was hacked by Frax to be their own personal army. Which might explain why they were able to capture almost every single mutant with only one ranger active. 2. Your point about the cryogenic containment is good but it’s plausible the mutants were cryogenically frozen because they were so much more dangerous than any human. Besides I believe it’s stated in the first episode that the length of cryogenic containment has limitations based on what crime you committed similar to jail sentences. In that respect, the x-vault would’ve been the maximum-security-life-without-parole punishment.
Trip, like the Mirinoyans from Wild Force are aliens on technicality. They're humans, humans who were transplanted to other worlds and developed differently. As Andros, the elf-looking dude with telekinesis, said in In Space "Earth isn't the only place where Humans live."
This video is exactly how I feel about Time Force it's a great season the themes are super cool and how everybody progresses differently and the way certain characters develop even though this season did not have the characters develop as well as lost galaxy did it was still a great season to see how Jen went from by the book we have to be stronger to more light-hearted and being in love with Wes the only issue I personally have for this season is the end seriously kiss dammit Kiss why don't you kiss her??? However there is one thing in this video I noticed and you mentioned nothing about circuit circuit was a key part of that team because he helped to summon the Zords and keep in contact with the future yet you mentioned nothing about him I am curious to hear your take on this Robo owl that would have been interesting to hear but other than that great video thank you for summing up Time Force in a way that all fans can agree on
With Circuit, there really wasn't much to say, if anything. So I made the choice to just leave it be. And yes, I think we all agree that Wes should have kissed her, or her him, whichever, lol.
He was fine I guess? I don't really know. He didn't leave much of an impact on me. But it did seem curious as to why future police officers programmed their robot owl to sound like a 12 year old boy.
The Disney Brain I appreciate hearing ur thoughts on power ranger series I can't wait to see more videos of u reviewing the series including the upcoming megaforce I'm hoping we get a dino thunder & wild force review in the near future as they r personally my favoriate seasons
Weird fun fact; the romance between Jen and Wes almost didn't exist. Up until Time Force, the producers (namely Tzachor unsurprisingly) ordered either extremely subtle romantic relations or none whatsoever since they thought it would bore children to death. It's both why Tommy and Kimberly's relationship rarely developed past the occasional mention after "The Green Candle-part II" and why Jake and Gia's romance in Megaforce also never went anywhere beyond them holding hands during the finale. Tzachor had absolute control over Megaforce since he basically shut head writer James Bates out of the writing room as he was bitter over his ideas for Samurai being rejected. THAT is why so much of Super Megaforce was reused and wank. And yet for Time Force, for whatever reason, Tzachor said "fuck it, why not?" and allowed romance this one time which led to perhaps the most popular pairing in the show's history. Sad that this is quite honestly the only good thing he's ever done for the show.
Can we please give some love to Frax, he didn’t deserved what happened to him at the end I’m only saying this because I just wish he got redemption like Ransik and Nadira
Gattica is one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. Ethan Hawke is such an amazing actor and his movies are so interesting. Like, Predestination is literally perfection. I would totally recommend it if you have not already seen it.
As much as I love to sing Power Rangers Time Force's praises, I seriously owe it to myself to watch and rewatch this season with more open eyes, a more open mind, and a more open heart. I would forgive Time Force's issues because the story is strong even in the less-than-stellar moments, the characters have deep motivations, and there are a multitude of possibilities that would make me thoroughly invested in Time Force as a whole. Maybe it might also be just me, but, despite the frosty reception Alex Drake tends to receive, I think it would have been great to also have him as the seventh member of the Time Force Power Rangers as the Crimson Time Force. Yes, he would be more of an anti-hero as Eric is, but I could also see an interesting dynamic between Eric and Alex in terms of how they view the law and their stances on justice. Eric and Alex may butt heads and get themselves into physical altercations on multiple occasions much to Wes's dismay, Jen's annoyance, and Katie's, Lucas's, and Trip's collective dismay and annoyance. Nevertheless, Eric and Alex would respect each other, thus seeing each other as equals and the firmest of comrades, which is also something that would make Wes just as happy when they are getting along.
I would argue that alex was a terrible leader when he took back command of the rangers because he wasnt used to working in a team. If you look back to the pilot, Alex is the only one we see as a ranger. So it is safe to say he is used to working solo despite having back up. However, there is a difference between reinforcements and teamates.
hey just discovered your channel i had no idea power rangers especially after mmpr are actually have more depth, really enjoyed your lost galaxy analysis, i have analysis on the original Spider-man trilogy on my channel was wondering if could get some constructive criticism.
J Smooth Soul Beats you know what it was as a kid I stopped watching after mmpr because I really enjoyed Ron wassermans score and I just never got into any of the shows because of the theme songs lol.
alex is my fave from time force him and eric alex wasnt an asshole he was strict& by the book meaning he followed protocol and demanded the same from his subordinates. i love how alex was by the book.^^
Hey I think that Katie is a decentdant of other African American rangers and Lucas decendents from other Asian rangers, Jen would be a defendant if of Kim and jason if they had kids together and trip descends from Tommy and Carlos.
That's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure how I would frame that into a video discussion. For example, the auxiliary Megazords getting destroyed in Lost Galaxy was a part of Trakeena's descent into madness, but then it would just be more relevant to discuss Trakeena herself. The thing about Zords is with the exception of a couple of seasons, they are a part of the story, but never a driver of the narrative. The Wildzords are probably the biggest exception, but the save the environment narrative gets a little wonky when Wild Force unveils its full story.
I always assumed the reason all the frozen criminals are mutants is based off of capability mostly, even with the crimes being minor imagine how much more those mutant could do is just in a regular prison with regular people
Just want to add but I remember laughing my ass off at how Vypra was defeated in the Light Speed Rescue crossover. I mean most tend to be really epic cos it's all Battlelizers from all teams together then BAM! Big explosion The crossover: Same thing but the this time the explosion was more like a fart. Seriously, you could easily edit in a fart and it'd be hilarious
Also I would like to see a video from you about everything Megaforce did wrong and have it be like you did with Samurai except we know Megaforce is going to get slammed harder but please give us a video about Megaforce cuz I am dying to see it
TheBlockedOcelot oh my God I just saw it and I love how he ends the video by saying oh and don't hate and then he introduces the video from Megaforce a season which we all hate
Honestly the only weak part of this season is the two part movie episode. It's just pure comic relief and all the rangers act out of character. From wes and trip throwing popcorn in the air like toddlers to the completely unnecessary cross dressing scene. Other than that time force is fantastic. One of the best pr series, maybe even my fav
If Alex is a descendent of Wes, and Wes and Jen end up together at the end of Time Force, does that mean that Jen was unknowingly involved in an incestuous relationship in the far future? Or that Wes and Jen ultimately don't stay together?
I always felt like they should have kept Alex dead at the end of the show. Like keep him being the one to send the TimeShadow and stuff but have that be him before he died, so in the future where the other timerangers are from he knows that they eventually go back in time and prefer Wes as a leader, explaining why he was such a dick in the future
Time can be a tricky thing when it comes to time travel. Just going back to the past where you where never born or or parents were never born you risk changing the future that you came from. Yes Alex did die in the year 3000, but when Jen, Katie, Lucas, and Trip went back to 2001 could of cause Ranisk not killing Alex, since Ranisk went back to 2001 it would of been as if Ransik was never around in the year 3000. If Alex being Wes decedent is not impossible. Wes was living in the year 2001. When you have kids, your kids will have kids and their kids will have kids. Since the year 2001 comes before 3000 then it would make since that Alex is a decedent to Wes. Sorry I tried my best to explain what I want to say. Talking about time as in time travel and try to figure out which is the past, present, and/or future is really hard to do.
I get what you're saying, but the thing about time travel is you don't risk changing anything that you know if you go back to the past. The change just creates another branch in time for the time you're in to follow; a parallel/alternate time line. Otherwise, we'd see a lot more changes to the future since Bio-Lab shouldn't have half the stuff they now have. Time Force, unlike Back To the Future for example, operates under the assumption of multiverse, so they can do what they want and still go back to the home they know because it's one of infinite possibilities. They just happen to know which one of the infinite possibilities it is. And we'll call it dimension banana! And my point about Wes and Alex was more of a meta joke, because their genetics are impossible since Jason Faunt plays them both, lol. But it terms of the show itself, it sort of makes sense, but just barely, since Alex would have a numerous amount of descendants just like Wes over their thousand year difference, so coding his DNA into the morpher activation seems a little questionable in terms of function.
I believe the Mutant thing is less a racism thing, with Ransik being a mutant supremacist, its likely less that only Mutants are criminals in the year 3000 as the Cyro prison was specifically targetted BECAUSE it carries all the mutants. And it probbably carried them more because of how dangerous a Mutant CAN be a la supermax. After all, even the nice Mutants tend to be powerful enough that if they said "I dont like this cement wall", well, that's that, they are out of jail.
Good lord in the early part of the season I could just shoot Collins Snr... but holy shit when the later eps came I looked forward to seeing him on screen. Trip is the saviour if the year 3000 ladies and gentlemen. Making baby girl Nadira deliver a child for him 😂 The man Vernon as Ransik was boss tier. His delivery was better than a doctor bringing a child into the world. Southworth running Eric was epic. The Lightspeed episode made me warm just by seeing my heroes a second time... I mean yeah we had Vypra... but we all enjoyed The Room so yeah
...so you mention various things that Time Force got wrong, but completely skip over the biggest screwup in the entire series? *Wes and Jen never kissed in the finale!*
I used to have a somewhat set schedule, but because my real life is currently uncertain in a a few key areas, I don't have a choice but to work on videos when I can while balancing out everything else that needs my attention. Once that's settled, I'll probably say so in a future video and then announce some sort of set schedule again :)
I found it interesting that Ransik is just as much a father as he is a criminal when he encountered Wes' dad. He sounded downright put off when he thought Wes was thrown out of his father's life. And given that we know Ransik's love for his child was stronger than his hate for humanity, it makes some sense that even he'd think a father rejecting his son is messed up.
Considering that mutants are the result of genetic experiments, it can be assumed that they're humans with severely damaged DNA and possibly predisposed to violence because of how many mistakes were made in the process of creating perfect designer babies.
Dang as bad as he was, he was still a good father
@@retronerds6884 It's abusive that he raised her to rob and destroy, just as he force himself and others to commit his crimes.
A lot of this makes sense when you realise that the Mutants are deliberately written to be pseudo sympathetic (Venomark and Vexicon not withstanding). The year 3000 is written to be socially and systemically racist ala 1960's America in the typical PG-13 way and it's heavily implied that most Mutants are only evil since they need to survive.

"We know they never cured Asshole in the future!" - Best line in the retrospective.
Jen’s speech to Ransik in the finale deserves an Oscar.
Or an Emmy, since this is a television show.
"We know they never cured Asshole in the future" - pretty much what anyone in the last few decades would think
Hahaha, agreed!
Wes is a liar. The future isn't looking bright if Megaforce is next lol. Amazing video though.
LOLOLOLOL, WES LIIIIIED!!!!!
you should be more respectful
respectful to Wes, ok! Respectful to Megaforce? That show can burn in hell for all I care.
tony thong no the season that deserves no respect is samurai
@@BLZ-rb7ij samurai is basically the lesser of the 2 evils. But on the other hand Megaforce failed as both a normal and a anniversary season
Looking back on this season has made me realize just how good of an actor Jason Faunt really is
Me too. I've always liked Wes but rewatching this season made me love him more.
He played both characters well.
I didn't care for Alex but I loved Wes. Wes will always be one of the greatest red rangers for me.

You question how Alex is bad at leading the team. You have to remember that Jen and the others were NOT rangers at that time. Alex was the only Power Ranger in the future. So Alex was more like their commander giving orders and Jen was the leader. Alex wasn't their Red Ranger leader. He was simply their commander in cheif. You know this because Jen hands the others morphers once in the year 2001 But since they were not previously rangers theirs had to be unlocked by the red rangers. That's why Alex isn't a good ranger leader. In the future He never lead a ranger team, he was a loan power ranger. Wes became a leader after trail and error. Wes was also friendly and listened to what the others said. where Alex used to doing things alone saw them only as back up support. Subordinates who should only speak when spoken to.
Also in Japanese version Alex is the main villain responsible for all deaths within the series.
A very good point, but it still doesn't change how odd it was that he seemed like a completely different person when he came back versus when he started. The others should know exactly how he acts but they treated him more like a foreigner than anything. And in episode 2, that same team seemed excited by the idea of seeing an Alex look a like, so clearly he did something right leadership wise before almost dying.
Before i found out about the sentai and poor writing i simply blamed it on cosmic retcon. The temporal changes that revived Alex also changed his personality and the other rangers didn't know because they were retcon proofed as shown when Katie went to the wild west and changed history.
Plus, you also have to remember that they hinted at some of their actions possibly affecting the future timeline. Their actions in the present may have affected Alex, to where not only does he not die to Ransik, but he also gets a personality shift.
Not quite Jen and the others were always time force even when they went back into the past. They might have been a little loose in terms of discipline because Jen didn't have the same kind of control of the team as alex.
Power Rangers Time Force was a great season!!! Great intense storytelling!
I rewatch it about every two years or so
I just started watching MMPR on Netflix out of curiosity about 6 months ago, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Since then I've been watching Linkara AT4W's recap/reviews and I ended up having to stop the Time Force one part way through because I was getting so invested in the recap I had to watch it for myself, and dang. That was a seminal season. Everything feels like a cut above for Power Rangers, the acting especially. But the suits, the storylines, the level of physical violence, the character dynamics, it all just works so well. It's by no means perfect, but it just feels like Power Rangers elevated to a higher standard. WhenI got to the episode Jen's Revenge, I knew I'd keep watching. I love that the Pink Ranger is the leader of the team instead of Red, and she is a legitimately good leader. And the fact that she has the strongest motivation to complete their task adds to her ability to bolster her team and protect them at all costs, even if it means putting herself in danger to keep them safe. She is definitely a contender for my top 10 female characters of all time.
Oh. My. God. I never made that Cyclobots connection! How in the hell did I miss that for all these years!?
Frax's conversation is one of my favorite & most memorable scenes in Power Rangers
@DragonmanX90
You're not alone, I didn't make that connection either. Disney Brain just blew my mind today!!! o_o
This is literally one of my favorite season. I met them last month in Long Island.
Erin hugged me cause I told her I had a crush on her while watching this season 😁
For real? In Long Island? Ten months ago would be in August before school starts. So lucky... I’m officially jealous.
A lot of the time travel inconsistencies and the year 3000 thing is actually based off the sentai Timeranger. Timeranger was released in 2000 and Alex was a jerk because his counterpart Captain Ryouma was the main villain who masterminded Ransik's counterpart escape to manipulate the timestream so he wouldn't die at the expense of destroying all of Japan. Timeranger had even more emphasis on its destiny theme since time travel was so heavily studied that society was considered preordained and that nothing could be done to change it.
Also, Timeranger is one of few seasons which ended on bittersweet note. Red and Pink will never see each other again, Green lives in Future as last remaining example of his species, Blue will die because of Cancer within the year and Yellow will live knowing he will never meet his own son.
I figured as much, but my point about the year 3000 was more about that beyond adaptation, nothing really binds them to that year specifically. And almost one thousand years in the future? Seems like way more would have changed to the point of barely recognizing what we would see as almost current humanity.
Not really, i believe it's more about human concepts. Twenty years ago humanity would have never conceived iPods so i'm guessing that the "Year 3000" is the future as humanity in the year 2000 could comprehend it. Basically 3000 was a random number the Japanese writers thought would be cool and symbolic. They could have used any year and gotten away with it
Actually Ransik does have a Japanese counterpart. Kind off... The fat toad guy that serves as comic relief and has a crush on Nadira. His name in Japan is Don Dolnero and he has most of Ransik's story but he gets upstaged by Ryoma who is Alex's Japanese counterpart at the end.
normal, that doesn't mean he has a counterpart.
time force is an excellent season and glad you agree this season is the best
it's really a matter of opinion.
it’s even better than in space.
Damn! I didn't notice how similar actually Wes and Summer are. Great point.
bifa And because of that, somebody is shipping them...
damn thank you for reopening and reminding me about the actual time travel aspect of this as opposed to the 1st time I saw it, man know that opens a whole new can of time travel worms that's just gonna be a pain in the ass to try and figure out as if the avengers endgame and doctor who weren't bad enough already.
I personally think that Alex is 'Time Anomaly' so to speak, The brief view we get of him in the opening he never comes off as much of an asshole that he does later on. By this point they've already been talking about how the future is actively changing, with at least one event with that machine of Wes' father being the one that tips them off that the stuff they are doing now is having effects on the future. While never really explained, it seems to me that it makes more sense that This Alex is alive due to something in the past changing some element in the future. This gets into the butterfly effect of how even small things can have bigger effects never imaged. This Alex that lived, is either harsher in general or becomes that way because he sees how things are being changed (Time Force seems like they actively monitor this stuff), so he tries to help his team but also get things resolved before they do even more damage... Till he has enough and decided he needs to do it himself.
Also, for as much of an asshole that Alex is, wow, is his Sentai counterpart /even worse/. Alex is a tame puppy dog compared to Ryuya.
What did Ryuya do?
@@ChoaiDode Ryuya is basically responsible for everything that happens in the series. He does all the bad shit Alex does, but he's also responsible for Frax's counterpart going insane as he did, actively tries to sabotage the rangers, and is largely the main antagonist of the series.
Like Alex is still a good guy at heart, basically an anti-hero; he wants the best for everyone and the future. Ryuya manipulates everything behind the scenes because he seen a vision of his own death and is trying to make a 'better future' where he doesn't die.
Rangerwiki has a comparison pages that gives a simple idea of where they differ: powerrangers.fandom.com/wiki/Comparison:Captain_Ryuya_Asami_vs._Alex
@@CassidyShadewing holy fuck this “person” sounds more like a villain than a red ranger
@@ChoaiDode He was. He was the true main antagonist and a complete bastard, In terms of Sentai evil, he is somewhere between N';Ma who wanted to plunge the universe into eternal hell and Agent Abrella the murderous arms merchant who destroyed galaxies for money. His sole motivation was to prevent himself from dying as TimeFire which would have happened in the Great Annihilation (the equivalent to the events of "The End of Time.") When that was averted and the Timerangers came back to confront him, he tried to murder them with his own forces before wrestling with Lucas' counterpart over a gun and then being fatally shot in the stomach. His final words were literally "Six years have passed. But...it still ends the same way."
@@lorddrayvon1426 holy shit, this is some messed up but amazing plot twist.
Came across these as my big re dive back into Power Rangers and Time Force has always been my favorite season.
Eric is my absolute favorite Ranger 100% and you did his analysis justice, along with everything else.
Dude, I genuinely love these videos. You catch things and explain layers of these shows I never even noticed. Keep up the amazing work. :D
Thank you! :D
"Yeah no, not marrying your ass." I love this line lol. #TimeForce
"Alex exist so we know they haven't got rid of assholes in the future" best line ever you win the internet today.
Hey Disney Brain, I honestly wish that besides the 2017 Power Rangers movie, that they portray a ranger that has ASD. I honestly believe that a good storyline for said character would be showing his/her struggle to make friends, his schedule habits, and the stimulus overload that may overwhelm him/her with their ranger duties. The ending for that would show us the progress he's made mentally and how much they mature over the course of the season to the finale.
Well when you said that s.p.d's concepts of oppression of aliens comes to fruition, it can be seen as a greater connection of plot points as we know that S.P.D does have their own version of time force.
Either Time force connection was right or this is the future Wes grew up in that we are seeing and still oppression still carries on.
Alex being alive makes sense. We see him pass out but never did they check to see if he was still alive. They ran from the scene to time travel. So they do not know what happened to him. For all we know as soon as they left Time Force medics could have arrived to save his life.
Few things
1. Probably top 2 with in space for all time favorite season
2. Jen is my all time favorite ranger
3. Ransik favorite all time villain
3b. I've seen all subbed episodes of timeranger (super sentai counterpart) where the villains I found to be below average besides being all killers. So looking back I appreciate what they did with ransik 10000000x more
Actually Villains in Timeranger had more interesting schemes. They are actual mafia with crime all over. But none of them is real main villain. Alex counterparter is.
Multiverse explains why Alex is alive. I thought that was the problem
I thought about it for a bit, Lucas may have left racing due to the Dash incident, so he decided to serve his community as a Time Force member. This is just my perception, but Lucas leaving his racing career to be a part of Time Force is him 'changing his destiny'.
One of my favorite season's
i personally found it boring.
Same Neo.
Neo Nightwing same
Neo Nightwing the best season for me personally. I remember being 6 and watching dino thunder, realizing that I missed time force even though I remembered it being around and already having had the action figures for the series. I started with ninja storm but came back to wild force and time force. Two of my favorite seasons.
And guess what, disney era power rangers. Nobody cares.. Quit your damn complaining about this season already and grow the hell up. Seriously, you are an embarrassment to this franchise and to power rangers in general, you damn fanboy.
Love your Power Rangers videos! This is the exact kind of thematic analyses I love seeing that Power Rangers often doesn't get enough of. Excited to see more, good and bad.
Thank you!
In terms of the original Saban produced series Time Force is arguably
the best with only In Space being able to really compete with it in
terms of show quality.
As for Disney seasons, Dino Thunder and SPD are certainly on a similar
level of quality along with RPM.
For me personally Time Force, has been and always will be in my mind the
best season of Power Rangers bar none. It was the first season I got
really invested in as a kid and I would watch each episode every chance I
got. I loved the characters, the theme song, the action, the story. It
was even the first Power Rangers season I ever bought on DVD and I even
managed to meet the actors for Wes and Jen recently who signed it for
me.
It's a part of my childhood and I love it
the characters didn't do much for me besides eric.
With the return of Alex, it was either speculated or was going to be put in/implied that the team actually did alter the future slightly and that that was why Alex is alive.
Whew! 30+ minutes of unpacking Time Force! You're welcome and goodnight! #ineedavacation
The Disney Brain 'Go Go Megaforce, Go Go Samurai!'
Me: Go Go far away. Go Go f#ck yourself.
(I really don't like Megaforce)
Chiko was here a little bit of super megaforce was good but yeah I agree megaforce was just cringy
Chiko was here but cring y is what makes power rangers power rangers
Chiko was here thanks 😃😃😃😃😃
The Disney Brain thanks
I agree wes is an all time and legendary ranger and should be treated as such by this fan base
The Power Rangers franchise seems to be giving us a lot of redeemed villains - Ransik, Nadira and Astronema are mentioned in this vid, but there's also Jendrix and Toxica from Wild Force, Jarrod and Camille from Jungle Fury and, more recently, Heckyl from DinoCharge. Wouldn't it be amazing if they had an episode where the monster's power can be beaten if his victim has direct experience of being evil and the Rangers have to get the reformed bad guys to sub for them in order to beat him!
One of the best seasons that Power Rangers has produced. I loved the review that you have out and especially that it was halved into two videos. Time Force could probably have a bunch of videos breaking down the bad and the good of series, the morality questions it proposes, and obviously how time travel works in the Morphinverse.
Good work!
Wait, if Power Ranger time travel involves changing the future but not the one you came from, thus creating alternate timelines, then does that mean that RPM is a possible future as well?
It actually is.
Wait, was summer landau she's from RPM. So somewhere on earth is the super think tank that DrK was working at. If those guys just let her go outside when she wanted, vengix wouldn't have existed. The earth wouldn't have been destroyed.
I really loved when Steelix turned Jen evil and she attacked Wes and he was able to bring her back, ah a love that stood the test of TIME lol, yeah I love cheesy puns too Disney Brain
Haha just saw that episode today
Another great analysis! Highlight of my day is seeing that you uploaded :)
You're very welcome!
I'd like to add that Time Force has THE BEST THEME in all of PR.
I think I'll definitely have to re-watch this season
15:00 I wish for that cure one day.
Lol, someday, maybe.
Amazing video! It is so great to see reviews of the seasons by looking on their main thematic ideas.
What if Lucas was a fanboy of Turbo & that’s why he has a love for racing! I mean they are from the year 3000 & say for instance he ran across an archive on Tommy & the turbo rangers and was fascinated with the turbo zord “Lightning cruiser” 🤷🏽♂️ just a thought!
Time force was, is and always will be the best season!
surprised you didn't go into the love story Wes and Jen had and how that might not have worked out. even if its not stated really in the show.
On the Vipra thing I always liked to think that she talked like that because she was a demon not used to the human english way of speaking (Like a weird accent)
A couple of points that I might add to your analysis of time force.
1. The cyclobots were actually time force property that was hacked by Frax to be their own personal army. Which might explain why they were able to capture almost every single mutant with only one ranger active.
2. Your point about the cryogenic containment is good but it’s plausible the mutants were cryogenically frozen because they were so much more dangerous than any human. Besides I believe it’s stated in the first episode that the length of cryogenic containment has limitations based on what crime you committed similar to jail sentences. In that respect, the x-vault would’ve been the maximum-security-life-without-parole punishment.
Trip, like the Mirinoyans from Wild Force are aliens on technicality. They're humans, humans who were transplanted to other worlds and developed differently. As Andros, the elf-looking dude with telekinesis, said in In Space "Earth isn't the only place where Humans live."
Great video! Time force had my favorite cast of all Power Rangers.
Also, Jen is LOVE.
Jen is Life.
3:14 ALTERNATE DIMENSION!
When frax dies it was so cold. That was such an amazing death. Honestly best death in power rangers.
Wait, the Pink Ranger was the De Facto Leader of the group?
How did I miss that!
When are the MMPR, Alien, Zeo & turbo reviews coming
Well Alex was just determined to get the Rangers on his leadership and to prevent Wes from being with jen.
Also hate is bad. Break the cycle.
This video is exactly how I feel about Time Force it's a great season the themes are super cool and how everybody progresses differently and the way certain characters develop even though this season did not have the characters develop as well as lost galaxy did it was still a great season to see how Jen went from by the book we have to be stronger to more light-hearted and being in love with Wes the only issue I personally have for this season is the end seriously kiss dammit Kiss why don't you kiss her??? However there is one thing in this video I noticed and you mentioned nothing about circuit circuit was a key part of that team because he helped to summon the Zords and keep in contact with the future yet you mentioned nothing about him I am curious to hear your take on this Robo owl that would have been interesting to hear but other than that great video thank you for summing up Time Force in a way that all fans can agree on
With Circuit, there really wasn't much to say, if anything. So I made the choice to just leave it be. And yes, I think we all agree that Wes should have kissed her, or her him, whichever, lol.
The Disney Brain I'm curious even tho there wasn't much on circuit what did u think if him as an asset to the rangers?
He was fine I guess? I don't really know. He didn't leave much of an impact on me. But it did seem curious as to why future police officers programmed their robot owl to sound like a 12 year old boy.
The Disney Brain I appreciate hearing ur thoughts on power ranger series I can't wait to see more videos of u reviewing the series including the upcoming megaforce I'm hoping we get a dino thunder & wild force review in the near future as they r personally my favoriate seasons
Weird fun fact; the romance between Jen and Wes almost didn't exist. Up until Time Force, the producers (namely Tzachor unsurprisingly) ordered either extremely subtle romantic relations or none whatsoever since they thought it would bore children to death. It's both why Tommy and Kimberly's relationship rarely developed past the occasional mention after "The Green Candle-part II" and why Jake and Gia's romance in Megaforce also never went anywhere beyond them holding hands during the finale. Tzachor had absolute control over Megaforce since he basically shut head writer James Bates out of the writing room as he was bitter over his ideas for Samurai being rejected. THAT is why so much of Super Megaforce was reused and wank. And yet for Time Force, for whatever reason, Tzachor said "fuck it, why not?" and allowed romance this one time which led to perhaps the most popular pairing in the show's history. Sad that this is quite honestly the only good thing he's ever done for the show.
Thank you!!!! Amazing review!
You're very welcome!
Eric is my favorite power ranger (besides Tommy ,of course)
Same here love that he is a 6th and red ranger
Can we please give some love to Frax, he didn’t deserved what happened to him at the end I’m only saying this because I just wish he got redemption like Ransik and Nadira
Gattica is one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. Ethan Hawke is such an amazing actor and his movies are so interesting. Like, Predestination is literally perfection. I would totally recommend it if you have not already seen it.
As much as I love to sing Power Rangers Time Force's praises, I seriously owe it to myself to watch and rewatch this season with more open eyes, a more open mind, and a more open heart. I would forgive Time Force's issues because the story is strong even in the less-than-stellar moments, the characters have deep motivations, and there are a multitude of possibilities that would make me thoroughly invested in Time Force as a whole.
Maybe it might also be just me, but, despite the frosty reception Alex Drake tends to receive, I think it would have been great to also have him as the seventh member of the Time Force Power Rangers as the Crimson Time Force. Yes, he would be more of an anti-hero as Eric is, but I could also see an interesting dynamic between Eric and Alex in terms of how they view the law and their stances on justice. Eric and Alex may butt heads and get themselves into physical altercations on multiple occasions much to Wes's dismay, Jen's annoyance, and Katie's, Lucas's, and Trip's collective dismay and annoyance. Nevertheless, Eric and Alex would respect each other, thus seeing each other as equals and the firmest of comrades, which is also something that would make Wes just as happy when they are getting along.
I wonder if Jens ancestor is Eric that would be why shes tuff
And who did Eric score with, in order to make Jen’s birth possible?
@@DuckandMikeyfan49 Taylor from wild force
'Alex exists so we know they never cured asshole'- brilliant!
Makes me wonder...would you take soul of wood or the ego of papa bladelord?
I would argue that alex was a terrible leader when he took back command of the rangers because he wasnt used to working in a team. If you look back to the pilot, Alex is the only one we see as a ranger. So it is safe to say he is used to working solo despite having back up. However, there is a difference between reinforcements and teamates.
Really you could say that time force is about individualism vs. collectivism.
I guess this series needed to happen. Another win for SPD
13:45 gotta show his boy some love
You should do a review of Lightspeed Rescue. I have looked and I don;t see one.
hey just discovered your channel i had no idea power rangers especially after mmpr are actually have more depth, really enjoyed your lost galaxy analysis, i have analysis on the original Spider-man trilogy on my channel was wondering if could get some constructive criticism.
J Smooth Soul Beats you know what it was as a kid I stopped watching after mmpr because I really enjoyed Ron wassermans score and I just never got into any of the shows because of the theme songs lol.
I just finished Time force and yes it's top 3 for sure!
Time Force is the best season for me.
@@hakratanak5123 agree
alex is my fave from time force him and eric alex wasnt an asshole he was strict& by the book meaning he followed protocol and demanded the same from his subordinates. i love how alex was by the book.^^
YES AND MY FRIEND AND I JUST FINISHED TIME FORCE
Neo Nightwing me too I'm on wild force
Neo Nightwing i been finished time force way before 6 months ago
Hey I think that Katie is a decentdant of other African American rangers and Lucas decendents from other Asian rangers, Jen would be a defendant if of Kim and jason if they had kids together and trip descends from Tommy and Carlos.
Hey Disney Brain could you do a video on the destruction of the Zords on all the power ranger team, those are some of my personal favorite moments.
That's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure how I would frame that into a video discussion. For example, the auxiliary Megazords getting destroyed in Lost Galaxy was a part of Trakeena's descent into madness, but then it would just be more relevant to discuss Trakeena herself. The thing about Zords is with the exception of a couple of seasons, they are a part of the story, but never a driver of the narrative. The Wildzords are probably the biggest exception, but the save the environment narrative gets a little wonky when Wild Force unveils its full story.
What you could do maybe is something you talk about in your response on how this changed or effected the ranger when this happens
I always assumed the reason all the frozen criminals are mutants is based off of capability mostly, even with the crimes being minor imagine how much more those mutant could do is just in a regular prison with regular people
My dream team:
Carter= red
Jen= pink
Ziggy= green
Summer= yellow
Billy= blue
Jason= gold
Jason - Red
Taylor - Yellow
Tommy - Green
Sky - Blue
Jen - Pink
Doggie Cruger - 6th Ranger
The fact the didn’t kiss in the end is what broke my heart.
Man I want to watch timeforce now
DO IT! :D
Just want to add but I remember laughing my ass off at how Vypra was defeated in the Light Speed Rescue crossover. I mean most tend to be really epic cos it's all Battlelizers from all teams together then BAM! Big explosion
The crossover: Same thing but the this time the explosion was more like a fart. Seriously, you could easily edit in a fart and it'd be hilarious
That robot frax is so creepy
Yeah, he’s like C-3PO, with an upgrade gone wrong.
Also I would like to see a video from you about everything Megaforce did wrong and have it be like you did with Samurai except we know Megaforce is going to get slammed harder but please give us a video about Megaforce cuz I am dying to see it
Peyton Sawyer Watch until the end.
TheBlockedOcelot oh my God I just saw it and I love how he ends the video by saying oh and don't hate and then he introduces the video from Megaforce a season which we all hate
Honestly the only weak part of this season is the two part movie episode. It's just pure comic relief and all the rangers act out of character. From wes and trip throwing popcorn in the air like toddlers to the completely unnecessary cross dressing scene. Other than that time force is fantastic. One of the best pr series, maybe even my fav
If Alex is a descendent of Wes, and Wes and Jen end up together at the end of Time Force, does that mean that Jen was unknowingly involved in an incestuous relationship in the far future? Or that Wes and Jen ultimately don't stay together?
Lol it's like Fry being his own Grandfather only in this case she was going to marry her great great grandson 🤣
When are you going to rank the blue ranger red rangers
What if Wes had a kid never mentioned tho.
My favorite season
Closely followed by rpm
Humans cannot be cryptically frozen so are kept in traditional prisons and the monster that did only petty theft only had a 3 month sentance
It's the year 3000, I'm pretty sure they can be. And "only" a three month sentence for petty theft makes the stigma against mutants worse, not better.
Seriously, it's like the only option for mutants is the freezer, regardless of what they did.
I always felt like they should have kept Alex dead at the end of the show. Like keep him being the one to send the TimeShadow and stuff but have that be him before he died, so in the future where the other timerangers are from he knows that they eventually go back in time and prefer Wes as a leader, explaining why he was such a dick in the future
I still hate how they just hug at the end like WTF?
Time can be a tricky thing when it comes to time travel. Just going back to the past where you where never born or or parents were never born you risk changing the future that you came from. Yes Alex did die in the year 3000, but when Jen, Katie, Lucas, and Trip went back to 2001 could of cause Ranisk not killing Alex, since Ranisk went back to 2001 it would of been as if Ransik was never around in the year 3000. If Alex being Wes decedent is not impossible. Wes was living in the year 2001. When you have kids, your kids will have kids and their kids will have kids. Since the year 2001 comes before 3000 then it would make since that Alex is a decedent to Wes. Sorry I tried my best to explain what I want to say. Talking about time as in time travel and try to figure out which is the past, present, and/or future is really hard to do.
I get what you're saying, but the thing about time travel is you don't risk changing anything that you know if you go back to the past. The change just creates another branch in time for the time you're in to follow; a parallel/alternate time line. Otherwise, we'd see a lot more changes to the future since Bio-Lab shouldn't have half the stuff they now have. Time Force, unlike Back To the Future for example, operates under the assumption of multiverse, so they can do what they want and still go back to the home they know because it's one of infinite possibilities. They just happen to know which one of the infinite possibilities it is. And we'll call it dimension banana!
And my point about Wes and Alex was more of a meta joke, because their genetics are impossible since Jason Faunt plays them both, lol. But it terms of the show itself, it sort of makes sense, but just barely, since Alex would have a numerous amount of descendants just like Wes over their thousand year difference, so coding his DNA into the morpher activation seems a little questionable in terms of function.
3:50 got me dead
I believe the Mutant thing is less a racism thing, with Ransik being a mutant supremacist, its likely less that only Mutants are criminals in the year 3000 as the Cyro prison was specifically targetted BECAUSE it carries all the mutants. And it probbably carried them more because of how dangerous a Mutant CAN be a la supermax. After all, even the nice Mutants tend to be powerful enough that if they said "I dont like this cement wall", well, that's that, they are out of jail.
Good lord in the early part of the season I could just shoot Collins Snr... but holy shit when the later eps came I looked forward to seeing him on screen.
Trip is the saviour if the year 3000 ladies and gentlemen. Making baby girl Nadira deliver a child for him 😂
The man Vernon as Ransik was boss tier. His delivery was better than a doctor bringing a child into the world. Southworth running Eric was epic. The Lightspeed episode made me warm just by seeing my heroes a second time... I mean yeah we had Vypra... but we all enjoyed The Room so yeah
The sentai seems to handle the changing future better than the Power Rangers season.
Are you gonna do a DCOM review on Descendants 2?
It's nearly finished actually! It'll be up Monday :) #somanywaystobewicked
I think the reason only mutants are frozen in the future is cause they're more dangerous than regular human prisoners.
...so you mention various things that Time Force got wrong, but completely skip over the biggest screwup in the entire series? *Wes and Jen never kissed in the finale!*
What about Alex
Even Zack got a kiss! Wes and Jen is one of my favorite PR ships! Right after Tommy and Kimberly.
So does he have a schedule?
I used to have a somewhat set schedule, but because my real life is currently uncertain in a a few key areas, I don't have a choice but to work on videos when I can while balancing out everything else that needs my attention. Once that's settled, I'll probably say so in a future video and then announce some sort of set schedule again :)
I love Timeforce!!! :)
13:48 at least its better than.....
Tarkennas revenge.
