Episode 05: Power Rangers Zeo
Michael and Nathan get to the first season that was radically different in more ways than one: Power Rangers Zeo. Saban took one step closer to embracing the Super Sentai formula by changing costumes, Zords, and villains! It was a paradigm shift that felt like an earthquake, but in the end, the franchise was STRONGER THAN BEFORE. With Tanya joining the team and Machine Empire usurping the Moon Crew’s claim on Earth, this season is all about displacement, both for the characters and the audience. Your morphenomenal hosts also discuss the Warrior Wheel (aka “the Danny DeVito of Zords”), Billy stepping down as a Ranger, and the many differences between this and Ohranger. Oh, and Nathan rages against Kimberly for breaking Tommy’s heart, much to Michael’s chagrin. Welcome to a leg of The Power Trip!
