Is Time Force Corrupt? - Page 2

Alex got shafted. He nearly died in the line of duty and when is finally reunited with his fiancee she loves someone else. I don't blame Alex for acting the way he did. His feelings were hurt but he couldn't afford to confront Jen, since the misison was more important. In the end Alex is a bigger person for letting Jen follow her heart. I feel more sad for Alex than Jen and Wes sometimes.

Alex was a total jerk. He deserved what he got. He wasn't the right guy for Jen or to lead the team. Maybe he learned his lesson in the end. But he should have been more supportive of Jen if he didn't want to lose her. He just wanted to erase her memories. How does that solve the problem?

Alex didn't have many likeable qualities besides loving Jen. Wes was the more interesting character. And wound up a better match for Jen. Who would never have been happy with Alex. She just liked him because he was her mentor back when she wasn't as confident. Wes was her true love.

I don't think Time Force was corrupt. They were just trying to maintain law and order. The genetic stuff was probably put in place because of the apocalypse that happened before hand. Society probably got used to doing this rather than procreating naturally.

Time Force was diffinitly dirty. They unintentionally created the very mutants they feared. And once they did that they created such a public outrage that the mutants were driven to crime. They were also treated like second class citizens.

Time Force took its youth and feeled them with propaganda to make them want to join up and capture the evil mutants. Just like in the movie Starship Troopers. Jen was clearly a victim of thia propaganda. Look at how she acted when Wes felt a little sympathy for Ransik.

The Time Force Rangers were good but the organization itself was shady. The TF Rangers became better people in the past with Wes.

At the time I didn't like Eric being such a jerk but now I think he was a refreshing change that he was a jerk and jealous and he wasn't under a spell. They over-did the spell stuff a little too much at times.

Ransik wasn't very likeable either. Really no one is.

I disagree with Time Force being sinister. Time Force really had nothing to do with sending the Rangers back in time since remember Alex gave his Morpher to Jen and told her where the others were and they were the ones that went and got them then took the Time Ship without permission.
She had every right to throw Alex to the curb regardless of her feelings for Wes and regardless of whether she could or couldn't be with him. Alex became a jerk and she lost her feelings for him because of his attitude.

I agree that Jen and Wes made a better couple. Alex was too cold and too by-the-book to really care about anything else but making sure the job was done. I agree with you that early in the season Jen was more like a young Jen and during the season she matured and eventually realized the truth.

Alex deserved the shafting 100%. Yes he was killed in the line of duty and when he's finally reunited with Jen she's in love with someone else.
Yes true with how he acted but he was still cold and too by-the-book so Jen had every right to dump him.
I don't feel sad for Alex at all.

I agree that he was a total jerk... and I agree that he wasn't the right guy for her or to lead the team. I agree that he should've been more supportive of her if he didn't want to lose her... but instead he just wanted to follow the rules and not care about any other person's feelings.

I agree... unfortunately she couldn't even get together with Wes either because of the whole timeline mess.
