It actually was pretty good. I wish post MMPR PR had more episodes like this. Than I might care more about post MMPR PR. Which this seems bland overall to me.

Re: Did anyone think that the Space Rangers were coming back for LR?
 

I thought they were coming back to Earth too. I was majorly disappointed when that turned out not to be the case.

But I think it was a mistake to return the Earth as well. As the show had evolved well beyond those days. They should have kept the show in Space and devolved to the old formula.

Lightspeed Rescue should have been a Space Season. Maybe the Space Rangers do return to Earth and upgrade to Lightspeed. With a reason to go right back into Space. It would have been so awesome. Do Time Force as a spinoff the next year and go back to the MMPR formula in a separate show. But in the mean time continue the Space Seasons as there own thing. Even if you had to get Toei to produce Space Sentai to get footage after Lightspeed.
