Why spend more good money after bad at that point? ™If it weren't for this "Ranger Black" likely would have preceeded pretty closely with Eddie' vision.

RPM was better for the production change. Judd riegned things in and made RPM more tolerable as a PR season. Eddie had talent but he tried to change too much too fast. I find RPM to be overrated and an example of why grim dark Power Rangers is less than ideal.

"Ranger Black" may have worked for another franchise. But for a show like Power Rangers, it would have been a disaster. Power Rangers is supposed to be uplifting. The tragady of the Rangers having to defeat a fake friend would have just not been a place Power Rangers could go. Its scary how close it was to happening and how it was almost the last episode.
you're full of it if you seriously think Disney would have approved "Ranger Black" in its entirely. Yes they gave them a lot more of a creative license but if you seriously think that they were going to approve Ranger Black being a sleeper agent that had infiltrated the Rangers and being one of the final villains that they would have to destroy then you're completely and entirely full of it and you must be pretty drunk to seriously believe it was going to happen 100% in its entirely.
