Following production of the first 20 episodes of season two, Austin St. John, Thuy Trang and Walter Emanuel Jones left the show over contract disputes.[24] To disguise this incident, a combination of body doubles, voice doubles and stock footage were used to continue featuring the characters Jason, Trini and Zack for eight episodes.

Damn, man. I wonder how obvious this is going to be.

While the reasons for their departure was debated for many years, in 2014, Austin St. John would confirm that the departure was due to the low salaries the stars were being paid; St. John stated "I could have worked the window at McDonalds and probably made the same money the first season. It was disappointing, it was frustrating, it made a lot of us angry."

That's pretty fucked up.
 
I remember purse head from this game!

Wait

1)Tommy's gets added randomly as a new color Ranger
2)He gets a special weapon that summons his own zord
3)Everybody gives their coin to Goldar and only Tommy can save the day
4)He loses his powers because he's the best and does so to stop Rita getting them
5)He fights Goldar without powers and beat him
6)Zordon almost kills himself to give Tommy back his powers
7)Deus Ex Machina gives Tommy his powers back while he's saving everyone
8)The show spends an entire arc about Tommy slowing losing his powers with everybody being sad
9)Tommy loses his powers but then Zordon brings him back as the most powerful Ranger and the new leader
10)He gets an even better personal weapon and zord
11)He gets Kimberly


Is it me or is Tommy the very definition of a Mary Sue. Not Rey. Tommy!

If I ever post something in Japanese which I don't understand, please BAN me.
Yeah Austin lived in his car for a bit after he was terminated.

Makes you wonder how something like that can even happen, AFAIK the show was a huge success.

How can you not pay the actors good aka the people who made this show popular in the first place... no words.

He was basically the chosen one. All of us as a kid didn't notice this because we just saw how cool he was lol.

I read an interview. They said Saban pretty thought their idea of good payment was having a good food spread.

Yea it's real shitty they didn't come to them after the first have of the show to negotiate merch and stuff.

They were making BANK off these kids.
