Power Rangers - Where are they now?

[destrekor]

In searching before making this a new thread, I see that we did cover the one who killed a roommate with a sword. But, Cracked has a good list of what became of many of the actors and actresses from that series.

Holy shit.

That's.... wow.

Worth a read.

Never really watched the show, thought it was stupid. I knew a restarted kid who loved it.

yea, those restarts are known for their love of power rangers.

For god sakes man, I was going in thinking it was going to be about one of the women gong into pron or something. :'(

Meanwhile, everyone who played a Putty will live well beyond 90.

And remember Professor Phenomenous Ingenious from Power Rangers In Space? Pneumonia took him at age 73. And that's not even counting several cast members who died for ... who knows?

Bunk! Bunk I say!

That's within a standard deviation of normal lifespan. For shame, Cracked.

It was a stupid show. My son watched reruns of it occasionally when he was really young and I saw some of them... they were basically unwatchable crap.

By the way, in case you didn't bother to read the article, everyone mentioned who acted in the show is either dead or has murdered someone.

Power Rangers was one of those shows that seemed entertaining when you're 5 but is unwatchable when you're 20.

Never the less, I make no apologies for owning this.

Yeah, that was an odd one to include in the list.

You mean he died of a relatively normal natural cause for someone in their 70s?

Quite a few 70 year olds are very healthy and that illness won't phase them anymore than you or I, but there are also plenty who have deteriorating health at that point. A rather unremarkable obituary, in other words.

It had flashy lights and big robots.

The pink ranger posed nude. Amy Jo something.

Was your son restarted?

Power Rangers were after my youth, I guess.

I was building scale models of battleships and tanks and planes back then, and watching the original Star Treks and playing drums and things.

I've never met a restarted person, myself.

Sounds like a Scientology or a Bhuddist thing, I'd go with Bhudda in that case

 

[SheHateMe]

Damn. But the black ranger didn't die

 

[zinfamous]

Damn. But the black ranger didn't die

It was such an inovative show for the time!

 

[Harrod]

It was such an innovative show for the time!

In their defense the writers for Jurassic Park and Deep Blue Sea weren't part of the production crew.

 

[Sonikku]

In hindsight though I think Voltron was better. And of course there's this.

I hated power rangers, even as a kid I realized how stupid it was and not even ironically funny or entertaining.

Ditto. I loved practically every new kids show that premiered the same year, but I absolutely loathed Power Rangers. It was so obviously terrible, I just couldn't understand why ALL of my friends loved it.

I loved Pokemon (the show, and TCG, and video games), I liked other Nickelodeon-type shows... but I too could not stand Power Rangers. I watched it from time to time, but never enjoyed it.

I was all about my cartoons though. And Legends of the Hidden Temple. And Are You Afraid of the Dark. And... etc etc etc. I miss my 90s youth. Shows today for youth just suck. They missed out on all the awesomeness we had.

This post is full of so many TV wins.

It was horrible, but I watched it for the pink ranger :wub:

I guess I watched it often enough that I ended up...appreciating it for its awfulness.
