Is Alien Rangers based upon a Sentai series or is this a fully American creation to fill a gap between MMPR and Zeo?

Alien Rangers = Kakuranger

It's the season all the Ninja Zords come from. They started doing this so they could start using Sentai Footage for the Ranger fights again.
 
Fuck, I'm not watching right now but by the comments I know more or less what happens in the episodes and I'm nostalgic like , I remember when I watched those seasons the first time and then the reruns in 2004 😭
 
I totally forgot there are 3 Kats in this, lol.

From Zeo on, I think my favorite seasons were probably Lightspeed Rescue and Time Force. Least favorite is Wild Force.

Time Force just has a really good story overall and the first time I felt the writing was standout, at least as I recall. Lightspeed Rescue was really enjoyable aside from the fact the villains didn't get a lot more time to be interesting. I loved that they kept in mind that the Lightspeed was the first of the PR teams that was totally different from the others and they reflected it in the show with all the guns being used. Carter is also like a legit hot-blooded red ranger at times. That guy did some pretty great shit you don't get to see often, lol.
 
It got too expensive to do constant original fight scenes. Hence why they changed to the Sentai standard of a new team every year. Except for the current seasons because Nickelodeon are cunts.

What's weird is that the Disney seasons and Dino Charge & Ninja Steel got heavy into original footage soooo I guess Bandai wanted new toys to sell?

Disney was willing to put money in for returns. But you sales bottomed out after I think the start of Mystic Force and never recovered. Maybe earlier than that.
 
Well this is great this marathon is ongoing, I can keep watching this until tomorrow at 1 PM EDT I can start pre-loading Mass Effect: Andromeda and I can continue watching Power Rangers until Mass Effect: Andromeda releases at Midnight EDT on March 21.
