The fact David Yost came to the set, not mad, but to met the new rangers and make them feel welcome in a tense time really shows how good a person he is.

Fun fact: Jason David Frank wasn't originally supposed to return as the White Ranger. After he had left Power Rangers early in S2, he was cast as the lead in a different Saban series called Cybertron (you can even find footage of the pilot on YT). However, due to his popularity in Power Rangers, he was eventually convinced to come back. Cybertron later became VR Troopers with Brad Hawkins (who was originally supposed to be brought in as the White Ranger) taking over as the lead actor. Hawkins also later voiced Trey of Triforia, the original Gold Ranger in Power Rangers Zeo.

I think this goes without saying but to those new PR fans who are watching S2 either through Netflix or PR’s official YT episode uploads who are upset with the cast changes, do NOT blame the replacement actors, instead blame the studio who did not want to compromise keeping the OG actors happy. I KNOW it’s been like 20 to 30 years but I still see obnoxious people harassing people like Karen Ashley or Steve Cardinas over replacing actors during a crappy situation they couldn’t control. Instead of doing that, please remember that they are still actors, regardless if they replaced your favorite Power Ranger or not. And besides, the new actors (like Karen and Steve) were eventually screwed over too. Whether you like them as PR characters or not please show the actors, you know real life human beings respect and decency. It’ll make us all better as people.

Rip Jason David frank one of the best actors of Power rangers his greatest powers will be missed✨🌌.

I think that story line sending Jason, Zack, and Trini to a peace conference was a lame excuse as to why the three actors left the show. How long did the conference last, when will they be back in Angel Grove?

Lord Z was always an amazing design. He looked like he should be a Fallen Ranger, given his mask and that he has a Zord. I always thought that the Power Rangers were like the Angels and that Z was the Fallen Angel.

that was very sweet of David to come in and encourage them. Bless him.

I remember when watching this show as a kid. It was awesome. It makes sad some of them are worst off in life, or passed away

The White Ranger upgrade from Green was such a huge moment for the show and an absolute stroke of genius! Same with Jason coming back as the Gold ZEO Ranger!

Grew up on this season of MMPR and it was epic. The thunderzords were such a cool design and Lord Zedd was a terrifying villain. Always missed the old cast but they made the new rangers very likable and cool. It was an awesome season to watch growing up. Rest in peace, Jason David Frank. ❤️💛💚💙🖤🤍⚡️

I do wish that they had been able to keep the original team together, long enough for them all to do the first movie together. That first movie was close to having the original team intact, and it ALMOST had quite a stronger Director in Steve Wang. It could have led to the finished film being a solid 20-30% better than it was...and who knows, that might have led to it being more successful in theaters, and launching an official "Power Rangers movie series" parallel to the TV series

I had the great pleasure to meet Karan Ashley at a signing once. She actually took a couple of minutes to talk with me. Just about the sweetest and loveliest person you could ever meet.

The three newcomers actually first appeared in ninja encounter part 1

Even Though I Miss Jason Trini ANd Zack But Sorta Like Rocky Ashia And Adam

Aisha was wasted potential: her actress wasn't a martial artist, but a dancer. If they gave her a story arc in which she learned how to utilize her individual skills to contribute to the team, like with dance, then she would have been more interesting. It'll also be a great way to mirror Kimberly's progression of her fighting style- she learned how to use her gymnastics to fight because she wasn't a martial artist. That would have really better justified the two of them being best friends, with Kimberly in the role of a mentor

I always thought they should have used all the Dairanger suits in season 2. They look pretty darn spiffy.

Another thing, Steve doesn't train in Karate. He trains in Taekwondo, him and Austin St. John were the only other rangers that practiced that style but Steve was a champion and teacher at the time. ASJ, Thuy and Walter didn't quit the show. They were fired and replaced...

And now most of the OG Mighty Morphing Power Rangers cast are coming back in the upcoming Cosmic Fury. Which it would be bittersweet without Jason David Frank. Especially when he last announced of retiring from reprising his role as Tommy Oliver one last time after Ninja Steel. Of course, the show will find a way to give tribute to the man who had been Green and White Mighty Morphing, Red Zeo and Turbo, and Black Dino Thunder over the years in his memory.

I had the chance to meet Robert axlerod. He was an awesome guy and when he did his zedd voice it brought back the memories

Jason > Rocky. Jason was more of a leader and he had that presence, Rocky was a great fighter, okay personality. I would have given that 2nd in command to Kimberly. Zack > Adam. Zack had that colorful personality, wish they did more with him and Jason and or Zack, Jason and Tommy all together, sparring, working out etc. Now Adam, great fighter, character needed work. He didn't have a personality til season 4, a bit overhyped, but overall good in my book. Trini > Aisha. Trini was a wonderful character, could whoop ass and etc. Aisha had a much colorful personality, but needed to work on her fighting, they should have had her character do more with that.

Still weird looking at Tommy in that thumbnail. Rip man. Miss you. Thanks for the videos also bro

Am I the only one who noticed the Pink Ranger looked totally broken emotionally the first episode after the 3 of the original cast left?? The few episodes after she looked like she was crying

I remember reading somewhere years ago that Daniel Southworth auditioned to be Adam glad that didn't work out he made a much better quantum ranger

8:38 - That's not what I heard. The show proved so amazingly successful that all the actors discussed demanding more money. Quite frankly, rightfully so. Guess which three decided to pursue the matter? Yup, the very same ones who got booted off the show and simply replaced with other actors. They didn't decide to leave. They got kicked out for daring to ask for more money.

imo the thunderzords were one of their best zords and even design and animal choice wise .. as for the ranger swap was cool to see new rangers,. who knew down the line , you would be able to be part of their everyday life now by following them on SC

Thanks for another great video. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too. May the Power protect you. 🙂

Thank you for this video sir!! Now watching MMPR on my DVD player. 😁 Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄

Eagle-eyed viewers would notice that they were using body doubles and voice dubs much sooner. I first noticed it in the episode where they went to Venus Island. Halfway through the episode they stopped dubbing Jason and Zach's voices, and a lot of the unmorphed sequences used archive footage. It's hilarious, because you can tell Jason and Zach were supposed to be talking, but nothing was coming out 😂

Dairanger def wasn’t the 7th Sentai series. Iirc it was the 16th season maybe 15th. Also Aisha, Rocky, and Adam debuted in the Ninja Encounter as a way to introduce their characters to Tommy, Billy, and Kim. ASJ, Walter and Thuy had already walked off so they had to figure out ways to complete episodes before they did the Power Transfer story. Probably nitpicking too much here still a good video

Hello there Sixth Ranger. Just wanted to say thank you for this new behind the scenes video on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season Two. I have to admit that I really do enjoy these behind the scenes videos that you have been creating, because of the information that you place in these videos and this one is super exciting. From learning about the design of Lord Zedd to learning about the three new Power Rangers that came into the second season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. This video was incredible and delightful to watch. Thank you once again for this video. Can't wait to see more Power Rangers related videos from you soon. Hope that you have a wonderful day and please stay safe. Also I would like to wish you a happy holidays to you as well. Peace out and May the Power Protect you.

I really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes. Maybe only want to get the book as well.

I once met Johnny Yong Bosch, he liked my custom Power Ranger Ichigo costume

Wish they used all the DaiRanger Suits. Ah man, when Jason, Trini, and Zack left my commitment to the show declined. It really threw me for a loop. As a kid watching the show, I knew something was off because a lot of the episodes leading up to their departure, we rarely saw them and Jason’s voice didn’t sound like Jason in some of the suited fight scenes. I did grow to like the new batch a bit over time and with the release of the movie, but when Kim left, I signed out. I remember checking back in when Jason returned for a bit, but got glued back when they replaced the entire cast with a new cast with TJ, Cassie, Ashley, and Carlos, then adding Andros in Space. This cast saved power rangers for me and their Space Season.

Thank you for posting the video.

Couple days late on watching this one. Merry Christmas 6th ranger. Some great insights on this one my man.

RIP Jason David Frank

as a kid, i wasnt happy to see jason leave but mannnnnnnnn adam is EASILY the third greatest ranger of all time! #1 tommy, #2 jason, #3 adam

when Zack , Jason and Trini left my heart did two a'int nothing better than the originals

Of all three seasons of this show, Season 2 was my most involved mostly for how many changes were made and how late the Mutiny episode was originally broadcast. After the theatrical movie, my interest in Power Rangers had sort of waned at that point.

Thanks for the amazing video

Can't wait for you to do a video on season 3!

Brad Hawkins was the original choice to be White Ranger Daniel Southworth (who played Eric the Quantum Ranger) auditioned for Adam. He was the stunt actor for Adam on the Power Rangers World Tour Live On Stage

Karan back then: im here for an audition. Dude in line: this is for power rangers. Karan back then: oh cool.......whats....um...power rangers? 🤣🤣🤣

great vid!!!!!

Jason David Frank is the face of the Power Rangers franchise and his death is a huge loss to all who have supported the Power Rangers franchise since the very beginning

I had no idea the Rita actress was re-casted, I thought she looked different when she returned, but I thought it was just the makeup.

Hey can you make a video on Squatt and Baboo I've been wondering whatever became of those two

Funny at age 4 lord zed did not scare me... what scared me was and episode from power rangers in space when they were being hunted by parasites that latched on the face and mutated them I was horrified, anyone else remember that episode

I am actually not sure I watched S1 in real time, so this was most likely my jumping-on point for Power Rangers, at the age of 10 or 11 - and it got me hooked instantly. Tommy Oliver was my HERO. Like, I wanted to be him way more than I wanted to be Goku. He was the undisputed leader of my action figures - even Goku and Batman listened to him. Only Spidey ever touched him in my heart, and then only because Peter Parker is basically me with superpowers. Tommy was just coolness personified - the strongest Ranger, a natural leader, with hands-down the COOLEST zord. Stupid Jason and Rocky could stuff it as far as I was concerned. Wild that the original White Ranger was a little kid - I wonder if fans complained like they did with Justin in Turbo... Also, so much trickery we were none the wiser to in creating these copy-paste episodes...it was a different time, and as clever as we were, we were still way more innocent than modern kids. Also, that guy who was in front of Karan Ashley in line and taught her about the Rangers must still be telling that story to his kids/grandkids to this day...

I hated how parents complained about Lord Zedd being too scary and he had to be watered down.

Where does Tommy Oliver morpher go when he transforms into the white ranger? Everybody else wears their morphers on their belt.

Merry Christmas man!

When they replaced the original people I stopped watching. Turned it back on one day and they were in the old West with spurs and tassles on the Power Ranger costume. I noped out of that so hard lol. I got more into the Japanese ones later.

Awesome job!!!!

hey man, really like the videos but could you make the intro music quieter? it's way louder than the talking and would be a minor change to make the videos better. thank you!

I also liked zany Zedd as the seasons went on over scary Zedd that we were first introduced to. Zedd was one heck of a dancer. Lol. Zany Zedd was better. I liked it when Zedd married Rita.

RIP JASON DAVID FRANK!

I once had an idea for a comic to have a serpentera (is that right?) ranger. Darker green and they would be related to Tommy

1/2 of the Ranger Team was FIRED!

Adam should had been red

Great video Man!!!! It was very interesting. For me, Season 2 is the weakest of the 3 seasons of MMPR but with that said, I still love it just as I do the rest of MMPR. In fact it has become enhanced for me thank to the Boom! Studios Comics adaption of the season!!!

I recall old interviews of David Yost where he claimed he experienced homophobia from Jason David Frank while on set. He apologized for his behavior obviously but this was early 90’s when it was still taboo to be openly gay & accepted.

That ranger book looks awesome but I'm not throwing down 200 plus dollars for it

Merry Christmas 6th ranger a good youTuber with Power rangers💪🎄.

LEGENDARY

Merry Christmas 🎄

I like your BTS videos so much. I would love to see if you do Ninja Storm & Jungle Fury BTS videos since those both are my favorite seasons.

Does anyone know the name of the comic book illustrator who designed Lord Zedd?

Where can you buy this book in Canada, 6th Ranger?

Good discussion

Who are the parents saying zed was too scary? They didn’t exist. Tv networks were just worried about the possibility i’m sure

It was awesome

Where would i even get that book nowadays? Most copies i see online are going for insane prices.

Ayooo. Let’s go

yes

One of the Power rangers adam park has many rangers too Black and Green Zeo ranger🐍🦎.

MMPR, the great What If! What if Levy and Saban were not penny pinching and upped the salaries, keeping the Original Six intact? What if the Tigerzord could be tinted green and Tommy kept the green suit? What if one and not the other? The possibilities...

Hey so u think u can do season 3 ?

Interesting

Saba can blend all the putties Like the 🌪️Wind🌀(WHIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!)

I love the power rangers with Tommy and Kim they where both fun and great to see and now miss Tommy rip and Kim miss him to after seeing her about him seeing her get so broken and crying made me feel so sad so yeah but don't know how long power rangers will last in the west we have only seen one movie of the new power rangers but not much lately or if where going to see anymore 🤔PS sad if comes to the end in the west I grow up with the power rangers and do skull and friend that work with him they both funny as hell miss them to and all bad guys and bad lady's 🤔 will never be the same yes I am dragon ball z fan to best bad guy was cell don't get me wrong but there where some others there where good but cell was my best to love seeing

I remember thinking White Ranger was so cool back in the day but Green Ranger is really the better design and cooler idea. It's sad it was so short lived.

It feels ileagal I'm this early

The “green no more” was an intended pun… let’s not be coy here

Lord Zedd is in 2 episode s of super Sentai

Any idea who the artist behind Zedd was?

Been trying to find the guide for months now but it’s out of print and massively expensive now

If Lord Zed was Rita's boss, why the heck did Lord Zed wait for over 10,000 years for Rita to finish her job before taking over her job to fight against the Power Rangers?

Jason should have given Billy his coin and he became the red ranger. Kimberly would still be second in command as pink but Billy earned the right to be the new red ranger and Rocky could be blue....

Diaranger was season 17 not 7 a simple google search would have told you that

Please do videos on spd A-squad & Evox/Venjix

Jdf r.i.p

To this day I really didn't like the last seasons of MMPR. They should've just adopted Dairanger instead but I get it financially lol

Can you do a video about titanus?

Funny I'm on this season rematching.

1:28 "Seventeenth"

The season had the greatest ranger ever, Rocky

power transfer was the last episode i ever watched

Lets not forget that the white ranger was originally called the tiger ranger and wasn't part of the show that had the original MMPR costumes.
