For example, one episode had a male school student who had issues with dyslexia. 2- The show was not all just mindless action. Granted, is has violence, perhaps too much violence for a kid's show, but compared to what we get on big screen superhero movies - Rangers is as harmless as a fly! A couple of lesser known facts about the series: 1- It is generally known that Power Rangers: The Movie (1995) was filmed in Australia but most don't know that a few episodes of this original series were also done in Oz. This century is filled with superheroes on the big or small screen but Power Rangers has been around since 1993 and it will never go away - three decades old and it is still going strong! Thankfully, Rangers is mostly free of the smart ass comments we often get from other current heroes. Power Rangers, both 1990s stuff and 2000s stuff, really does provide that.

Though she does demonstrate great power, Rita never really succeeds in her task - whether it's on the big screen, the small screen, or the comics. There was no Juice bar (and hence no Ernie). A sorceress from a far away planet, Rita spends three years trying to become the person who defeats the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to conquer Earth.'Zordon' was named 'Zoltar' and the image of his head in a tube was also blurred and somewhat pulsating.'Trini' was played by a different actress, Audri Dubois, and was completely different personality (and nationality) wise to the 'Trini Kwan' in the TV series played by Thuy Trang.There are several differences between it and the tv series: The pre television pilot version of the first episode, 'Day of the Dumpster', was shown on the Fox Kids programming block in 1999.
