Just some rambling and giggling over this week's PRDT.


Hayley???

Well, this shoots my crossover snippet to hell, really, but PR actually managed to surprise me. Wow. And I suppose with Tommy back in action, they're going to need someone manning the computers...

(The first fifteen seconds of Act 2 got cut off for me - did she ever explain how she knew aside from meeting Tommy in college?)

Is anyone ELSE a little annoyed that they left out Mike and Merrick in the pantheon of sixth rangers? I mean, come ON! You want to cover all the seasons, at least mention all the rangers, even offhand. (EDIT: Okay, Merrick got covered, my fault for rushing through a post before leaving. I meant that Phantom and Mike got shafted. I understand why they were easy to cut out, but that just annoyed me.)

So Mesogog wants to revert the earth to its prehistoric state. I guess taking over the world got old, but his methods so far don't seem to have much to do with that ultimate goal. Guess that's what you get when you have to chuck the original Sentai storyline entirely and chop up footage.

(Although that might work somewhat better considering what I've read about the Evorian in the original Abaranger plotline. We'll see.)

So they DID decide to put all the series in one universe. I note there was no mention of Forever Red.

*snicker* Connor's twin brother flunked out of ninja school? And is an even bigger airhead than Connor? Is that possible?

Just when I thought Connor couldn't get any dumber, he manages to surprise me. Oy.

Yeah, it's probably a good thing Tommy's going to be an active Ranger again. :)


Like I said - it's WAY too easy to mock Connor.

(EDIT: Got home this evening and made a correction.) :)

So, I haven't...

...seen this yet, but I had to comment because Sugarplum likes to call me spoiler!slut. *laughs*

Anyway, Connor's twin brother?! Hayley and Tommy with connections?! NO MERRICK! *sobs* ;)

I really wanna see this. Thanks for your thoughts on the episode, Mandi. :D

Heh

Haley was a very pleasant surprise. Though she's been following Tommy around since college (back, bunnies!). And no, there weren't any other details given, but I think you missed the mention of Merrick, 'cause it was there.

Alas, poor Mike was skipped in favor of giving more airtime to Target Boy.

And the only thing more annoying than a clip show is a clip show with an important arc "B" story. *sighs*

And post the AU anyway. If you don't want it on your site, I'll give you a couple kb on the 101st Acre. :)

... Wha? But... Merrick was featured pretty decent in the ep. At least as much as Eric or Ryan. Admittedly, Zen-Aku got dicked.

Mike is skippable inasmuch as he's not a Ranger. It's not like Ann has probably SEEN Lost Galaxy. She was told there were five Rangers, so we saw five Rangers. Hell, we didn't even see Trey, and she was around for his tenure.

CLF

Yeah, I know...

Tigger already caught me on that, and I think I missed Merrick's mention because I got distracted by the phone. Re-watched the tape and corrected myself when I got home this evening.

I know why they skipped Mike, don't get me wrong; he was the one sixth ranger that I think they could get away with ignoring for the sake of time (and yeah, let's try to explain how he "died" in a quick recap). It still annoyed me personally. :)
