Default Why do people hate dark and gritty PR?

I think its great. Why do people want the show to go out of its way to be corny and funny?

I love it when its darker. That doesn't mean I want super dark film noir like stuff. But a little bit of realism and drama really goes a long way. There is certainly still room for levity in the right places of the story.

I think it's because a lot of us became fans during MMPR and like PR for what it is.

I'd have to say my favorite era of the series is Space through Wild Force. I thought there was a good mix of drama and levity.

Power Rangers supposed to be a lighthearted series. It wouldn't make sense for it to be dark and gritty.

Agree, film noir Power Rangers is not what is best for the tv show or the movies.

Oh please, Sentai can be just as cheesy as PR can be. Sometimes even more cheesy than PR.
