Brilliant!

Now, I grew up on the original power rangers, and I loved it, however after Tommy (the last standing member of the original rangers) left, I just couldn't get into the show anymore. It just didn't feel right and after Power rangers space it just didn't seem to make sense anymore. At least between Mighty Morphin and Space they found a way to link them together. But after saying goodbye to all the original's as well as having Zordon destroyed, I just completely lost interest and between then and now I've watched only a handful of episodes. But then my daughter took after her mother and found a love for power rangers SPD showing on a children's channel along side Power rangers Wild Force, I wasn't overly keen on them but she loved them...then they began showing Dino Thunder. I was skeptical at first but naturally my daughter demanded we watched it! I could barely contain my excitement seeing my childhood hero on screen in the Power rangers once again. I felt like I was that little five year old again glued to the TV watching my hero's. And as the show went on I loved it even more, especially when Tommy once again became a ranger. Unlike the other Power rangers it seemed to be a bit more true to it's roots then other series. And when I found out they where originally going to get Jason back, I was so glad they decided to get Tommy instead, after all, Jason A; didn't last that long, B; Tommy was always the true leader (Don't get me wrong, I loved Jason) so it only makes sense to have Tommy come back as the mentor and teacher to a group of brand new rangers and once again resume his role as leader. And the fact they chose to have an evil white ranger was brilliant, after all, that's how Tommy started! The episode where they showed Tommy's video diary of the rangers up to that point was Also amazing! I now find myself re watching it on the wonders of Netflix and still love it! One of my favourite lines is 'I may be old, but I can still pull it off'...and that he can :D! The only things I would of changed is, A; I would of made a second season or more episodes (because lets face it, you can never have too much of Mr Frank!) B;They lead us to believe Tommy had gone off and married Kat, so it would of been nice to either have that confirmed or have a short explanation on what happened. And finally C; I would of had Tommy NOT marry Kat and start something with Hayley, I think they'd make an adorable couple personally! Over all it's brilliant and if you haven't seen it yet...You need to! And future power rangers need to incorporate the original rangers in some where, even if it's just a small part of an episode, after all, it's where it all began!
