Besides, Tommy was the franchise. He should have had a lot of focus. For a lot of people he made MMPR. I don't think he is the only good part of MMPR. But lets not deny that he is one of the main reasons PR became popular. The Green Ranger story arch was amazing.

Too bad Tommy couldn't have stayed till the end of Turbo. Even though TJ became one of my favorites besides Justin and Tommy.

Yeah I agree with you there. TJ was pretty cool. Even though I gave up on PR for awhile, I ended up catching a lot of the TJ episodes later. And he was pretty cool.

No beef with TJ. I agree with you guys there. He reminded me of Jason. Who was one of my favorites. So pissed when Zordon made Tommy leader, but I think thats obvious. Anyway, nothing personal guys.... Just how I feel.

I hear ya man. Jason was one of my favs too. Just liked Tommy better. Was awesome seeing the two shake hands in "Forever Red".

That was diffinitly a fanboy momment for me too Todd. Pretty cool seeing the old friends work together one last time. It seems like there may have been some sort of a falling out. So it was nice to see them work together for old times sake and renew their friendship.

I agree that Tommy was basically the face of the franchise. Not to mention that petitions from kids' parents plus calls from their Parents into their studios will speak volumes as to the popularity of a certain character and in this case kids usually went towards Tommy.

I agree it was a disappointment that Tommy couldn't have stayed longer but JDF wanted a break from the show.
I personally didn't like T.J. as a Red Ranger I thought he was better as the Blue Space Ranger.

I was pretty disappointed when TJ became blue at the time. I became a big fan of him as a leader. But he was still able to show leadership ability as Blue. Plus I warmed up to Andros. I was glad TJ remained a strong.character in Space.

I always thought Carlos should have been Turbo Red. It seemed like that was where they were going when he was introduced. Not a big TJ fan.

My only complaint is not seeing Tommy fight himself as Turbo Red. Fighting Ninja White probably would have been pushing it. I loved the episode. Since it was a cool throwback to old Power Rangers.
