I found Superhuman Samurai to be a tongue in cheek parody of the genre and in that way superior to Power Rangers. It just didn't take the parody to the extreme that Teenage Tatooed Alien Fighters from Beverly HIlls or that one Animaniacs episode did.

@RM2011ish Ай бұрын

@@jessewilley531 One difference. Syber Squad is based on an actual Japanese Sentai like Power Rangers, unlike Tattooed Fighters which was completely original.

@jessewilley531 Ай бұрын

@@RM2011ish Yeah, but if you watch Sentai or Gridman (both of which Shout TV have or had) you'll see 'based on a Japanese show' is only a very loose term. Unlike Ultraman which tried to remain as faithful as possible to the source material, Power Rangers and Superhuman Samurai basically took the fight scenes and crafted their own stories. It is like saying Japanese Spider-Man is based on the comics by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. (They aren't.)

What really happened to the Cosby Mysteries was the simple fact that The Simpsons utterly destroyed Cosby's last show The Cosby Show. As well as an ongoing fight with Eddie Murphy. As well as ongoing flips in theaters Cosby stared in that pretty much showed the end of Cosby's fame at the time. Cosby did try one more thing with a show called Cosby that lasted 4 seasons, but it never got the high ratings that The Cosby Show once had.

I have fond fond memories of Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad. Watched the heck out of it. It actually originated from a Japanese Sentai series called Hyper Agent Gridman, which eventually spunoff into an action packed anime series (SSSS.Gridman and Dynazenon, plus a movie) which were all quite awesome. Funny enough Syber Squad is quite faithful to the original concept of Gridman, only everything was Americanized with a Saved by the Bell kinda vibe. You could argue the SSSS in the anime titles came from Syber Squad.

Finally, The Review, you've brought some more that I really remember! I was a HUGE MMPR fan, but by 95 I was coming out of it, so the Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad dropped, it was already lame. Forgot about Tim Curry being in there, I'll have to check some clips. The Boys Are Back, I got nothin' there, it just looks as generic as can be. VR.5, god I love these early internet thriller type shows and movies, they are always hilarious. Legend, don't recall that one, needs Tim Curry again, ideally from the movie Legend. I wanted to watch All-American Girl, but my parents hated Margaret's comedy, so they said no to the show. Remember the Cosby Mysteries SNL sketch where Adam Sandler played Cosby? Look it up. No clue on Misery Loves Company, looks dumb tho. AJs Time Traveler's, that theme sounds familiar as heck, but it could just be the singers. Sounds like Mark Mothersbaugh with Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson. Under One Roof is vaguely familiar, my folks loved James Earl Jones so it may have been screened in our home at some point.

Back in the late 1990s, all of the white guys in teen movies had that look. From Josh Hartnett in the Faculty to Brendan Fehr in Roswell to Jimmy Fallon on Saturday Night Live. Lol!

Let's be clear, here: the WB didn't just "show up." At least not to my memory, anyway. They took over for the WGN, which was a Chicago-based station - even though I found out later it was in more markets than just Chicago. (Like Houston.) Just like how Fox took over for a different network on the channel THAT was on, as well. (I used to have an old TV where the channels all had separate push-buttons on the side. I still remember the year the one marked "60" suddenly became "50" onscreen, even though the physical button never changed - & there already having been a button for "50.") The only time ACTUALLY new channels showed up was when cable TV was invented - & even then, there were plenty that were offshoots of known airwave stations like ABC & CBS.

Margaret Cho has been very vocal about the way she and the cast were treated by the producers and the network. It wasn't good.

I liked A.J.'s Time Travelers from what I can recall of it 🙂

I remember hearing the theme song for superhumanSCS. I don’t remember seeing it. Was a little too old I think. Would have been in middle school. Thought this show was more successful. The only show I remember at all on this list.

Superhuman Samurai was the 💩. Favorite show to watch after-school in 95

I definitely remember Superhuman samurai syber squad, had one of the figures along with two shirts back then and it was not a bad show In a way it did made its return but in an anime called SSSS gridman, a lot of influence of that shown is displayed in there especially with the storyline and with the protagonist.
