Should Eric have joined the team earlier?

He never really felt like part of the team until the Wild Force Team Up. Which is a rarity for Power Rangers. Should he have joined the team during Time Force?

I really liked that about Eric actually. He was different then the other Sixth Rangers that came before. I liked that he was more of a gray area character. He didn't become a Ranger because he wanted to do the right thing. And his conflict with Wes really added to the story. I felt his arch was perfect. We got a lot of character progression for him. As he did become a true Ranger by the end.

Eric was evil and should have been frozen with the other mutant criminals. He should never have had the Quantum Powers to begin with. A true Ranger doesn't become one for himself. Tommy would have never let him keep the morpher.

I think it worked out better that he was on his own. He wasn't a villain. But he was a bit of an antagonist, especially for Wes. We got to see Eric develop into what he became in the Wold Force Team up

It was nice to have a different kind of Sixth Ranger

They were actually pretty consistent with Eric, which Time Force sometimes has trouble with. So I really like what they did with the Quantum Ranger. I am just glad that rumor about Alex being Quantum was untrue.

Oh yeah thats right, I remember that rumor. It probably started because people assumed Alex was coming back after he "died". And they weren't wrong, since he did come back much later on.

Alex would never have been a Ranger, since he was evil. Most of the Time Force characters were pretty unlikable. Or outright evil like Alex, Wes, and Mr. Collins.

Eh he was a Ranger in episode 1 of that season?

He was always meant to be his own person and separate from the Rangers. Buy the time of Wild Force he was working with Eric on the Silver Guardians, so he could finally join the team.
