Episode 9: Power Rangers

a certain symbol. That is that what this is? I didn't notice. Yeah, it looks like I think the only person that I know that wore that specific armor with that symbol would be Vegeta. Man, I must have made a mistake. Okay, clothes on so quick, I didn't really lies well. Vegeta has the coolest like shirts to make gym shirts like, I don't know, like I like your Goku swimsuit, but I feel like the armor looks good when you're like, yeah, if you have to tell you,

I bought some knockoffs of that. I actually bought off knockoff Piccolo's pants and they do not fit. They're so like and they're like the seam isn't even right, isn't lined up right off? To send you a picture, I took a picture. It was basically little boy shorts. Um they were supposed to be men's but um oh yeah yeah, I could barely get my butt into it. There we almost said the other word. But did it friendly come

from China? I think so, yeah, that's Sweet's it's because when I tried to get my romp him, my bootleg romp Him, I got like the double XL and that thing. I think I have a video where I'm ripping out of it. The second one that came it fits. Oh yeah, I should like tweet a picture in this episode. See where what is it? I can't even make out this. Oh it was so cheap. Anyways, don't ordered knockoff things online.

They don't fit something most of the time, just you know, but when they're like dirt cheap, like on a wish. I got it from eBay and they were like fifteen bucks per romp him and I was like, I'll burn And I was like I'll get two kinds just to be safe, and yeah, that was the way to go. So I paid thirty dollars for a romp him that fits. I started using wish dot com. Well you know, you don't know what you're going to get, which is fun, but you could spend like fifty dollars and get at

least like a hundred different items. I'm not kidding. Like so, I think I got like a robe that was for ten dollars and it was like sequence, it didn't fit me at all. Is made for a tiny child. But that's the thing is you never know how it's going to fit. Most of it is like a one or two use where once you wash it falls apart. But there are some funny I think what I got um Stella, who was on our Causeplay episode. She uses Wish a lot because it's cheap material. And so they have the

sticky cups that go on your pets. Yeah you can say breast. I don't know what I'm allowed to say on our show, so I try to, yeah, breast pecks. Essentially, you have these little sticky cups that go on there to protect them when you can't wear a bra. Oh nice, Yeah, so you're not poking through yeah, yeah, so those are actually really nice. I mean the chemicals probably cause cancer

or something because it's so cheap. Yeah, there's always it's like the um like that trope where you go to this like mystic shop and it gives you one dope thing. But there's always something that's what wishes it is. But anyways, if they want to sponsor us, please, Uh, I'm Danny at stuff media dot com. Today we are covering something that's very near and dear to I feel both of our heart. Oh yeah, no, this is this was just the nineties kids staple. Like everyone was into Power Rangers.

It was like the first, I think of our generation, really big inclusive thing, you know, outside of like your care bears and stuff where care Bears. I felt like both genders were into. I feel like Power Rangers were too, because even though it was like the superhero thing they had, they had every most races represented male and female, and they were the color of the rainbow. Yeah. Yeah, I had so much Pink Ranger stuff that my family gave me.

It was also during the time I think when Barney was still on, so it was like I was getting Barney gifts at my birthday party, but also like the dopas hell Pink Ranger stuff. Yeah, I don't know why my why, Like, yeah, I remember I had some Yellow Ranger stuff as well. Um but uh yeah those were my two that I remember I had. I think I had like a pink Ranger like Bank. I definitely had the glove. Do you remember like you could buy the sounds?

Yeah yes, so yeah, so we're talking today about Power Rangers. Yeah yeah, so let's just kick this thing off. No no, uh, tangents just right into it. So basically Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, which aired on the Fox Kids weekly afternoon block in, was actually Saban Entertainments repackaging of a Japanese show, which, h if you didn't know, now you know, the idea to repackage these Japanese live action superhero shows was an

idea that Times Saban had for a while in the eighties. Yeah, he actually made this like famous business trip to Japan in which he was like in his hotel and the only thing that the only reception or something that he got on his TV was the Japanese series Supercentai which Super Sentai, for those that don't know, is basically the superhero team franchise TV series that was produced by both Toy and Bandi, and it was like live action characters

with like super colorful, over dramatic like special effects. Um, if you haven't seen it, I mean it's basically like Power Rangers. But if you haven't seen it, go Google or YouTube. Supercenti and so at the time, Saban was pretty fascinated by these like five masked characters in spandex suits fighting monsters. Also just absurd monsters, absurd makeup and costumes. Uh So, inve he actually produced a pilot episode called Bioman and it was an American adaptation of a Supercenti show.

Uh and that was heavily rejected by all of our American network television stations, and and and before creating Power Games. The idea of adapting Senti series to American public emerged actually in the late seventies after the agreement between toe A and Marvel Comics to exchange concepts and adapt them to their respective audiences. So Toy with Marvel create the Spider Man series based on the comics of the same name, and then produced three Super Sinti series, which had great

success in Japan. And while Stanley and Marvel tried to sell the Sun Vulcan series to various television stations, including HBO. Uh, it wasn't like it happened in Japan. It didn't succeed after three years and the agreement ended. And I don't know, have you seen any of the Spider Man stuff online, the Japanese stuff, it's pretty crazy, Like it's basically Spider Man and he has like a car, and he like

has like a super suit. They just they're like, all right, we see your Spider Man, but we actually think ours would need a super mech. Look up Japanese Spider Man. It's so good. Oh that's that's hilarious. Yeah, I love it. So um he doesn't like fling from building to building with his webs. Yeah yeah, so yeah. So Sabon's pilot, Bio Man, was was rejected pretty heavily, and according to a Levy, he actually kept a tape of it with him at all times that you would like pitch to

network sort of people or just randomly take out and show. Um, so in is that one both of you and I were born? Yeah, we umen Iffie and Danny were born. Uh. Saban made his own production company and actually made several shows, but including one of the most popular was X Men, the animated series. Oh yeah, that was a Saban show. Yeah, there's actually a ton It's so funny because Saban is so synonymous with Powers with Me that I forgot they did things. But now that I think of it, they

did have a logo at the end. I do know that his producer is that the Spider Man. Oh what, oh my gosh. His costume looks like he ordered it on wish. Yeah, for sure, it's very dramatic. I love it. Yeah you want. We'll have this video in the footnotes for people to see. But yeah, he's basically, yeah, just wearing a cheap Spiderman s and he uses his like watch to transform into Spider Man. It's you can tell it's Senti influence there. So he wasn't bit by a

spider a rope. Well that's convenient. Um. So in the early nineties, the head of Fox Kids, which was Margaret Laos, she was actually looking for a new show for kids that would be adventurous and fun and silly. So she actually loved the idea of the Bioman pilot and hern Sabon decided to negotiate with Toe for a newer Supercenti at the time, which was Kiori sentai Zo Ranger and that is what ended up being Power Rangers. And it was basically so for those who don't know, they pieced

together parts of the show. So the action sequences were from Japan, so those stayed, and that was what the Bioman pilot was as well, and then this new Power Rangers pilot and show, a lot of the show is still shot. What essentially they did was they would intercut it, so it didn't know aways look good, and it wasn't always clean, and it didn't always make sense, especially in later Power Rangers series, it didn't always make sense of

what they were. Like one of them, I think the in Galaxy one, the equivalent in Japan they were actually in it was like a Wildlife one, so it didn't even make sense that they did that. But yeah, so so the Power Ranger series itself was intercut with the Japanese one. So then when they would cut to like their teenage life or whatever, that was what we would see as the American actors. But then a lot of the action and fighting sequences for at least a good

portion of it were from Japan. Yeah. It was actually a pretty dope set up when you think about it, because all the action is taken care of. They just borrowed the stuff from Japan, and actually I heard that they would send them the suits. So like all the scenes with the the actual actors interacting with the monsters they just re shot, so you only have to shoot all of the in between and just the like interactions with the monsters and you're pretty much good. The hard

stuff was taken care of by Japan. It kind and it was. But also I heard like horror stories of like, well they didn't get their suit in time where they had to like uh which happened with a particular ranger which we'll get into, but um, yeah, they didn't get their suit in time, and then there was a point where they would like lose pieces or like of the costume. But at that point they had gotten so big that they could just go to the store. This was like

after the show was huge. They would go to the store and like go to like Toys r Us and pick up part of the suit from there and just like put it on because it was like such a you know, Chief replica essentially, which was what the suits where the suits were so cheap. Um. So, yeah, we had the first episode which I don't know if you

remember this if he uh Day of the Dumpster. It was two astronauts which found that's what we opened on found a dumpster on the moon, as you do, uh, and they opened it for some reason and it released rita repulsa embers of evil. Uh. And she had spent ten thousand years in that dumpster. She wants a planet to conquer, and what does she see if she's on

the Moon, She's going to see Earth. And so Sordon, the big giant Wizard of Oz head looking dude detects this tells Alpha five, who's like a bender slash like lost in space, um, Johnny number five robot dude to essentially assemble a group of five teens to fight, which now looking back hearing this, I'm like, it's such a funny thing that we never questioned as kids that it would be, like, yeah, the best people to to fight her just five high school teenagers. Yeah, yeah, that's the

one because they have they're so pure of heart. Do you want to go through the Rangers? Yeah, So we had Jason Lee Scott, he was the Red Ranger, Kimberly Hart, Pink Ranger, Zach Taylor, which is the Black Ranger, Trinny Kwan the Yellow Rangers and Billy Cranston the Blue Ranger. Yeah, and we actually have a clip here. We got clips ready ready, all right, Oh yeah, that's iconic. I got one more for you. I got one more. Remember this sound? Yeah, I remember that was like the bootleg version of the

so maybe it was. I tried to find it but I couldn't. It also kind of sounds a little like Kim Possible, but um, I mean she obviously came later. My trainer used to have my workout trainer used to have the Power Rangers ring tone. Yeah, it's so funny, like just that riff, that guitar riff is just so known, and that nineties were really the golden age of guitar themes because we had rocked the Dragon. Yeah, and then Don't Don't don't d Oh my gosh, it took me back. Yes, yes,

oh my gosh. But speaking of the Rangers, so Jason the Red Ranger very jock esque filling that like like if Zach Morris were a Power Ranger. Essentially um teaches karate. So ABC Family actually did a contest in two thousand four and he was voted people's favorite Ranger and Tone Disney did one in two thousand seven, he was voted again as people's favorite Ranger. He also just like if you watch this series, is like kind of put to the forefront, especially in their megaz Ord or whatever, which

we'll get into what that is. Everyone else is kind of like a side I'm not like a side character, but he definitely takes like the forefront. And then he's also the only Ranger that it has defeated, the most enemies by himself than any other Ranger, and the only Ranger to beat Tommy Oliver. So if you do, you want to tell everyone who Tommy, that's our boy. J d F Jason David Frankie's the original Green Ranger. He lived, he's been He's really been holding that Ranger banner for

a while now. But Tommy Oliver is first introducing Mighty Morphant Power Rangers as a five part episod So Green with Evil as a new student in Angel Grove High School, and uh, what's crazy is like I remember that it was such a big deal that there was this new Ranger, this new Green Ranger, and he had the suit and it had like a like an extra light diamond vest

to it. And we're like, who is this. I was going to say he was the one where like I think that they didn't have his costume quite right, so they were like some scenes that were just like really bad. I think I can't remember like his shield or something like his Yeah, it was like different in the Japanese when they had to make it out of cloth and the American one. Yeah, and no other kids show had done a five part episode before, so it was it

was a really huge Yeah, that's crazy. He didn't know that. Uh. And then like unlike like what we were saying that he has the golden shield armor, two golden arm bands and then triangles instead of diamonds on the gloves and boots, and the belt buckle was golden instead of silver. So he was stunting. He was a fancy boy. And I also remember he was the only one that got him and kimberly him and they had like a love interest and they kissed, which was a big deal for me

when I was little. They're like, whoa, oh, I don't know we could do that on here. I'm trying to think of other kids shows where people kissed. I don't feel like maybe like, uh, I don't know if it happened in Clarisa explains it all or how was a big deal to see people actually pressed their lips together. You're like, oh, And then we have Zach who is

a Black Ranger that was Jason's best friend. He taught hip hop what he called hip hop a keto, which was basically martial arts and breakdance, which is funny because there is in martial arts that exists that's that and it's called capeara, which they could have done it, but but that that was the nineties, like kind of it's funny to see how martial arts has evolved over the years and in the nineties it was all about like karate and take kwondo, like all the other martial arts

were not that popping, Like those were the ones that kids knew about. At least where I grew up, it was karate, kung fu and uh take doubt those were the only ones. But now you know, yeah, but like yeah, no Capwarra is that you know, he could have been a Capalwarra guy, but you know they didn't know that back then. Yeah. Yeah, that we have Treney the Yellow Ranger.

She was also a martial artist. Um I guess I don't know if you want to touch on because in a lot of the articles that we pulled up, it was not apparent to them that they had cast the Black Ranger as black and the an Asian actress as the Yellow Ranger. They said they didn't even um dawn on them until the tenth episode, and then they changed

that in future iterations. In fact, the film that just came out, I think Becky G was the the artist, Becky G was the Yellow Ranger, and in the movie that just came out not that long ago, so that was I don't know. People had a lot of mixed opinions about that, just of note something to vote. I thought it was more of a funny thing and never really came off malicious except the fact that Zach was

like the hip hop dance guy. But I think that was like the nine becase where everyone was so enamored by, like, you know, the black hip hop you know, like, how can we add this to our show? How would mine have been the Brown Ranger? Yea ranger range. So then we have Billy Billy Cranston the Blue Ranger. He was a stereotypical brainy nerd. He was named after Brian Cranston

thought him. Yeah, I thought of that when I saw his name, and then so Brian Cranston would later play sord On in the reboot, but he also did a lot of the zany voices for the Henchman, which if you haven't heard, I think I have it here. It is okay, ready, all right, no match for me? My fire by Oscar Worthy, my awright, yack. So that's brand Cranston. Really, it's funny because I was hoping like maybe I would know,

but you know, that doesn't sound like him at all. Yeah, that's pretty cool that he was around back then and that the Blue Ranger was named after him. In fact, the Blue Ranger David Yos actually had a story that I was reading about on Advocate where he said that he dealt tremendously with bullying and homophobia while he was on the show, and after the show. Was it from from who he said it was? I believe his colleagues,

let me pull. So the first Blue Ranger somehow managed to put up with horrendous homophobic slurs on a constant basis, in addition to the crew grilling co stars about his sexuality behind his back. I don't know if he was out back then, I imagine not um, because it might have jeopardized him, especially back in the early nineties and being on a kid's show, because that's how people were back then, still now and still now, very true and

still now firm. Multiple seasons before he left the show. Um, and he said that he also attempted gay conversion and even considered suicide because of having to deal with So he's spoken up pretty he's spoken up a lot now about it. Uh. And I think you know, has helped other people, especially in that community, like in the nerd community. Um, of what he's gone through. But that was kind of something behind the scenes that a lot of people didn't know about him. And he was in several of the shows.

He was a character that can like that continued on past just the original Mighty Morphine How Rangers. So yeah, um, and then we have Kimberly Let's perk things up. She was a valley girl, a gymnast, loves them all and she ends up having a relationship with Tommy and I like that Caps and they kissed. It was a big deal. I know. It's funny because it seemed like the perfect archetype, like you could tell they wrote it for girls to enjoy the show because their idea of like, you know,

she's like a girly girl, she's like a cheerleader. Yeah, um, yeah, it is funny. Yeah, it's so like nine And there's no way now I mean not that they wouldn't have a pink Ranger, but I feel like just making her so over the top. But yeah, So the series itself was basically them combating Rita and an endless array of monsters and normal teen stuff. So you know, it's still a team like show still have like issues that they dealt with, like in Boy Meets World, and then they're oh,

they're bullies Bulk and Skull so that hyper now so farcas. Yeah, Bulk bulk Meyer and Eugene Skull Skull of Itch. I love that I've found their real names. Are two of the longest running characters, so they last through six seasons. They actually outlast the cast themselves. So when they when they recast the Power Rangers as they did and did

a couple of times, Bulk and Skull still stayed. Um and they actually have an art unlike some of the other characters where they moved from being bullies to actually having you know, like emotions and wanting to do what's right. There's even an episode where they like are putting like a dream state where you're able to see what they dream of, and they dream of being superheroes themselves. It's like that bully, you know, like a deep down they actually want to be the good guy or they're they're

jealous that they can't, so um life of bullying. So Bulk is at hyper hyper show. Yeah, so he's he was on Power Rangers hyper Force playing Bulk and and in this Bulk gets to become a Power Ranger. It's actually kind of cool. The fans really dug it because they got to basically take the lore and just like make it I think it's like a kind of cannon too. Yeah.

Can you tell everyone about hyper Force? Yeah, Hyper Forces a live action Power Rangers are p gu which featured quite a few of the original cast We had, I know, Bulk is in it for sure, and there was one other cast member who showed up in the show, and then it had appearances from like Jason David. Frankie even popped on and did an episode. So it's cool because

hyper RPG produced that live RPG with Saban. That's why they had the resources to make all these connections of why it's kind of cannon because it was kind of just this it takes place in kind of like the Time Force Universal. It kind of gets to be removed

from affecting anything that we're watching now. So yeah, and also I remember when they were casting for that, why you and I weren't allowed to be on it even though if he and I have shows at hyper and you know, Zach was on our Twitch episode and he's the CEO there. But it was very important because Saban is a very family friendly company that they had family

friendly people. Um, so we're actually going to get into what a sword is Mega Sword as well as the other shows and some crossovers and the films right after the break and we're back. If he did you have like what Power Rangers toys? Did you have all their little zwords, like their their individual little animals? Man, all this is time for the fun story. So I remember this because it's the first thing I've ever stolen in

my life. God, So, in kindergarten, kid brought a Red Ranger toy and it was the one where you pressed the belt and it flips from their human head to their power ranger head. The teacher took it and put in her desk because we weren't allowed to bring toys to school, and while yeah, so while she was in there, I went into her drawer and I took it, and then I went home and I was playing with it, and then, um, I felt guilty about it, and so I took it back to the teacher the next day

and like gave it back. So I never said such a good little kid, you know. I just felt guilty about it because it was that thing. It was like, um, what is that literary thing? Oh, you mean the beating heart. Yes, yes, that's the one I'm thinking of. Yeah. Like I just kept seeing it, and like, I just kept feeling guilty even though I had it. I was having so much fun. It reminded me of me going in there and steal it.

And I just kept having this imagination that she would go into her desk and be like, where'd it go? You know, your little kid heart. I think one of the first things I stole was from Sunday School, so that's like doubly bad. Um. And it was the class that had been in there before had made these adorable pandas out of cotton balls, and somebody had made their so beautiful that I was like, there's no way I

could replicate that, and I just took their's. And then I think, um, as as what happens when you steal something. I accidentally crumbled it in my hands and ruined it. Anyway, So if you do, you want to tell everyone what a zword is. Yeah. Zord is a type of meca

that is often piloted by a power rangers. Some swords can combine to a form of a human anoyed robot known as a mega zord, which basically looks like to Danny, she puts she put it in there, which basically looks like to me, optimistes it is, though, I mean imagine Optimist prime and that's their Megazordum. I do think that my brothers and I had the individual ones that like

you could put together. I think we did or yeah, um, But I also remember, like I was going to say, the toys that I had was my family was just very much you're gonna have the pink range journey. It's because you're gonna have the pink stuff. And so I had like her helmet, I had her glove. Um, I don't think I was allowed to have the other colors. Um, my name was already Danny. So I think they were like, we don't want you to get confused about anything here,

which is your faults you name me that. But I think they wanted a boy for sure, and then they were like, oh, we're gonna make you the most girliest my family. Also, this is side note, kept putting me in cheerleading even though I hated it, and end up being a sweeper and soccer. But yeah, so like you heard in the intro, it's like saber tooth, you know,

those are what the animals look like. And the show itself actually ended up having Well it's going on because there's another one coming out, of course, because why wouldn't you continue to capitalize on nostalgia. I mean it's been going strong from from when we started watching it, when it was launched too, when we went to high school forgot about. There's just every kid just comes in and it just is the perfect show for them. Yeah, so

the upcoming season will be season. But something that people don't know is that they are still based off of all the Super Sentai counterparts, So even the latest one that's coming out has a Super Sentai counterpart in Japan. Yeah, each season was so and they had, like you said, like Dino and and Beast War and all those other ones. And then we also have three films. Yeah yeah, oh man, I've seen all of them, but I remember both of them.

And it's so funny seeing how much the Turbo movie made, because in my head that was just as popular as the first one, and it was not. No. Okay, So the Mighty Morphine Power Rangers movie which came out made over thirty eight million in the US box office. That was their box office revenue. Turbo, which came out two years later, made only eight million. That's like nothing, that's

thirty million less. Yeah, that's insane. And then we had the reboot, which was Power Rangers that came out in and that bumped it all the way back up to four million. Again, this is just US numbers, their box office numbers. Did you like the reboot? If you have the reboot, I didn't dislike it. There's some people who are like both ways. There are people who like loved it, thought it was amazing. There are people who just hated vehemently, And I'm just kind of like it was a fun

movie I enjoyed. Yeah, yeah, I agree, I'm in that same boat, but I do I saw a lot of people actually, I think because a lot of people thought it wasn't going to be good. Do you know when they showed the poster for their costumes and everyone's like, what is this? Yeah, they really wanted to tap into the alien looking and Alpha five was like, how I remember people being mad about that. Yeah, it was so funny. Yeah,

but here's the funny thing. You can't do a reboot in and keep them looking those costumes that we saw in the nineties. No, sir, no, you cannot do that. You know, they imagine they wanted some take on that.

But in the end, what it really felt like the reboot was that it didn't really know exactly which audience they're trying to attack, because they could have just leaned in and made it like just Power Ranger for the usual Power Rangers demo, but it seemed like they also wanted to tap in on nostalgia and kind of aim a little darker, a little older. So I think they kind of accomplished hitting both those marketplaces without you know,

doing but I feel like you can't help. But to make a just okay movie when you do that, like it out of their hands, there's no way to really make it both if you, I would be remiss if I didn't bring up a crossover that happened that I am going to play for you, for all of us. Okay, one of the best crossovers to happen in television history. You already Rangers, we gotta go through Turtles. Hell. Yeah, well, at least you got that right. It's time for some

shell shot shell shocked. Those things. I can't believe it, but I think they're it's the teenage mutant Ninja Turtles. Yeah, buddy. You know what's so funny about this is this crossover is very similar too, because it was Power Rangers in Space that did the crossover. It's very similar to Double Dragon Battle Toads. You remember that game. It really feels like just a spiritual like a copy of that because the Ninja Turtles are basically the Battle Toads. I think

the Battletoads are ripped from them or vice versa. It's either ripped from them or not, because the Turtles isn't ripped for the Battle Toads. But and the Power Rangers seem like a you know, kids version of Double Dragon, so it is funny that they did meet and know and when everyone was doing like what was it? Infinity War is the greatest crossover, most ambitious cross over all time, and like people were like tweeting the Power Rangers Ninja Turtles, Oh yeah, I love it. I have one more trivia

piece before we break and bring in our guests. But one more that I don't know if you know, is Marishka Hergete, who's very famous for Law and Order. She was in the original movie and they cut all of her scenes out. If you look at her picture of her costume, she is fine as hell. Yeah, seeing when this came out, I can imagine that's why they cut it, like she's too revealing. But she is killing the game,

Holy crap. If I can envision, it's like poison Ivy meets Zena and I hardcore want to cause play as this. I bet nobody will like link to this. I'll make a note to tweet this picture out because it is the dopest thing to cause play. And my girl is abs. She's like Wolf, She's rocking everything. And yes it's very much too sexual, but I feel like all the parents

might have appreciated it for themselves. In the Yeah, I was going to say the dads, you know, I'm trying to be Yeah, you know some of the moms do. I'm not gonna, you know, be exclusionary dads and some of the moms. And I think there's a picture of her like sitting on one of the I'm not I'm going to bring this up in her like sexy outfit. Um, I guess I understand why it was cut by a very dumb person. Here's another pick of her. Oh yeah,

Hella poison ivy vibe, Yeah, the green. I do want to mention one thing before we go to the break, that Bond didn't just do power Raches and give up. They had two times that they tried to kind of replicate this formula. One time was with the Masked Writer Show, which was a continuation of Common Writer, which Common Writer still to this day is going on. Like Common Writer is basically the same as Power Rangers, except it follows

one person. He usually rides a motorcycle, which is why he's Common Writer or the Masked Writer, and he has like a cool bug like helmet. They did, I think, Um, I think. I don't know how many seasons made it out here, but it did not last as long. Didn't have the staying power. And the second time, which was one that I actually really loved and was real hurt when they took away, was the Big Bad Beatle Boards.

It was actually the same formula. Basically they used the footage from Juco B Fighter the first season in B Fighter Cabudo the second season. So man, it was so cool because the bug design and the suits were so metal and dope and it just uh. It basically ran for two years from September to March Secon and I miss you Big Bad to Boards. Have to give your shout out. But we'll talk more, and we'll talk with a special guest guest who is a power Ranger, and we'll get to hear what it's like to be under

the mask right after this. Yeah, Brian Cranston kidding, Hey, what's up y'all? Welcome back, and as promised, we are back with a power ranger. Yeah. It is my buddy, my friend Peter Sadars. So how are you doing? Good, dude? Good? Yeah, Peter. When he walked in, he was like, so what are we talking about? You are the worst. I love you. We're just such different co hosts. I feel like where I would have had like an email and here's the parking situation, and here's like I called him for parking

actually just outside. I was like, is it okay for me to park? Just like one, Peter, we have a spot for you? What the lot is full today? And all the even the one I was going to pay the dumb eight dollars to part that's full. So I'm like out on vine me too, ye down there. Yeah, I don't know what's going on in Hollywood. I feel very short. Look at my chair right now. What is it? Oh? We do have to talk about something. This is Peter's first ever podcast ever. I'm just a little bit. I'm nervous.

I don't know what you like do live on camera stuff constantly. Yeah, you know you did hyper Force and then you did like the real Power Rangers. I mean you're yeah, you're one of the Power Rangers. We've got to be in multiple iterations of Power Rangers, super lucky. Um my goodness. I don't know. I mean, I'm not sure how it. I guess because I think they're very different audiences. Like most people who watch hyper Force aren't aware of like my Ninja Seal stuff, So it feels

like there are two different things completely. It doesn't feel like they're both like Power Ranger and all in like one little thing. Oh nice. Well, let's back it up a little bit and let's talk about when did you first start hearing about Power Rangers, because we know all of us if I started talking about that, we're gonna be here for like an hour. Like, what was your first introduction when you first remember seeing Power Rangers? Um, I grew up in Indonesia, so my first instruction of

Power Rangers was actually Super Sentai. Yeah, and you're like, yeah, I'm just I'm just on the other side. But yeah, I think I remember when I was like super young, and then I kept watching it and I grew up just watching it, you know, So it's always been in my life. And then uh, to get into the whole Power Ranger acting industry side, it was actually Yoshi Yeah

your old Yeah, he's also done in Charge Blue. Um. He got into the industry from doing like stunt stuff, so he did like the suits and all that stuff and for the live action shows, and so he got to meet some of the Rangers and from then on he was like, hey, guys, how do you how do you get into this industry? How I want to be a power ranger, you know, because like he could do flips, so they requirement, Yeah, that's what you need to be able to do firectice my flips. Dang me too. They're

actually casting for it right now, right now. It just down the street. I hit our manager up, excuse me, sentis no, But so he did that, and then so he got the casting raised email and we legit just cold shot in an email. And we weren't in the acting industry at this time. I was a student of architecture and my brother was doing mathematics. He was just like, hey, can we audition and she was like yeah, sure. So we came in and we saw her, and then we

got really lucky. I think it was just things just kind of worked out really well, and we continued on all the way to screen testing both me and Yoshi. Then they canned it because they were like, actually there's a bit too they'd be testing it, so um, come back in like six seven months, like all right, cool. We came back and that was Megaforce. That's the first

time that I actually got a tasteful. The industry is like, because like you guys, you guys act to you guys know, like the whole test option, right when you see those papers, you see the numbers, see how much you're going to get paid, Yeah, and the promise of what's happen like fan sizing in your head. Yeah, just so people because

people outside the industry don't know. So when your audition to act, usually like in a pilot or a bigger show, first you do your auditions, than you do your call backs, than what you do is like a screen test slash chemistry test. What that usually is. It varies for different studios, but mostly let's just talk pilot season since it just happened and it's easy to talk about. Um, the studio

exects come in and watch you do your auditions. It's a lot, and they're like just most of them at the time will be like stone cold, like yeah, it's just like the SML auditions. They don't laugh. But before you do your before you do your screen test, you get the contract and you see how much you're gonna

be making per episode. You see that money, and so that that just ups the stakes even more because now you know how much you could be making and you don't even have the job yet, but you're already seeing how much you start to like imagine this life, you know. And since that was like an architecture, I I have been living like non industry life for all my life seeing all that thought that the contract itself was like binding, and I was like, oh god, my life has changed.

And at the end of it, I got super close and it was done like me when one other person, and it got to the point where like I accidentally got upload on IMDb before I heard back that I didn't get it. So I was like, oh my god, Oh my god, who did that? That's the worst you could get in big trouble for the thing is like the Power Rangers fan base and communities super passionate. So

they found out who was. Yeah, they found everything out and so like they speculated the eventually one by one people found out who got cast it and it was down to like the last person and then they were like, I think Peter got it, so I think they put it on IMDb, so I thought I got it. I didn't get it. It was like first ever audition and it was like first ever like rejection and no one warned me how how bad it would be. Like, I've been through breakups, but there is nothing like a heartbreak,

you know what your career. Yeah, I don't know. I would take twenty heartbreaks from like from my partner the dream. Yeah, that's hilarious. Wait, so you this is so fascinating me. You have no action background. Wow, I mean now people are gonna be running out here like this. That was my first time with Megaphorst, and then after that I got into the industry from like commercial modeling because I didn't I still don't have a theatrical and when you're completely out of it, you have no idea how to

get any of this stuff. Even Google barely helps. Yeah, So then I did that and then next season was Dino Charged. That was two years later. And then by this point I had gotten a little bit of practice fro commercials, but I've never gotten like actual like training. So we did that and uh, we went to producers and we both got cut, me and my brother. And at this point I was already friends with the casting driker, so I like begged her. I was like, please please

please give us another show. Please. I swear to God, we will do better. When she gave us another shot, which was super kind of her. Yeah, eventually went down to me against Yoshi going out for Blue and I was going out for and they couldn't have two Asians on the cast at that time. I don't know, So yeah, you actually eventually got it. Wow, this is when I realized like, oh, this industry isn't just fun and games. Yeah.

When he left, I was like majorly depressed. I took like I spent like fifteen thousand dollars eventually in like classes. I drowned myself in classes, but that ultimately helped me actually get into this industry. Series. Yeah, you know, well I think what you did, you know, this is taking a step from nerd talking going towards actor talker just industry talk. What you did is you took the positive

route to deal with it. I feel like a lot of times when people face rejection in this industry, they want to blame the industry and not make themselves better.

But what you did is you took the classes and you made yourself undeniable and then it paid off, and that was That's kind of how you have to treat rejection instead of like being like these people aren't giving it to me, you have to be like, Okay, then I'm gonna get better and better until the point you can't say no. You look bad if you say no to me. Yeah, it's like it's like the audition that we were talking about this morning, Like had I known she wasn't going to read the lines, I would have

just been better, you know what. Oh man, you know there's so many things I've been I feel like, if you like, because we're both in classes, and I feel like as comedy, well I can only speak for myself, but I feel like being in comedy you kind of like you coast off of that for a little bit, Like you can make them laughing auditions, you can do that, but then you start to realize you're not getting it because you don't have the acting technique that they want, Like,

and then when you're in acting classes, you're like, oh yeah, I never thought to do literally any of that, you know. And it's so funny because the same thing as a comedian,

like looking at acting classes. You know, it's hard for a comedian to take anything seriously, especially they're acting like and you're like whatever, But it all it takes is that one moment of you like doing a line and then that teacher giving you the adjustment and then seeing how it pops and you're like this yeah, You're like maybe this is uh yeah, and it well just opens up your arrange. I feel like to other now I can go for drama roles, which is like I never

ever would have and I didn't even want to. Like when they my acting teacher like made me take this like drama course, I'm like, I don't want to do this. I don't want and then I was like, oh, I love it. I didn't realize I could cry on cue. Yeah, I am so living out here in this town. I can cry at any time. I didn't realize I could use that in my acting. Okay, so so yoh got it. And then and you didn't and so you were here

and you took all these acting classes. Well at that time too, I started taking in a lot more seriously, not just acting classes, like I started um writing my own scripts, like throwing my own stuff. I started YouTube channel because of that, and which now has already died down.

But you got busy, yeah, I got busy. Well after leaving Power Rangers, it just no one else took over it, and I couldn't like but um, so I started doing that to actually like progressively do stuff and I ended up getting a manager from one of the auditions that I did from like a self tape. And so after that, the pilot season came when Ninja still was coming up, and at that time I had book two pilots. One of them was like an A see Free for him, the other ones at Disney, and I was like, I

think I think it might be okay. I think I might be okay in this acting industry even if I don't get Power Rangers, you know, like I'm gonna be sweet. Then when Power just came along and I was like, I can't do this again. I don't want to break my heart another time, you know, like it was so gut wrenching the first second and third time, Like this time, I don't want to go through it again. And my brother was like, you know what, do you just gotta try,

because like, what's the worst that can happen? You book it? Yeah? I mean, yeah, I guess you're right. So then I went into it and I was like, I'm not gonna get invested. I already got two pilots going on. I'm sweet. You know and lo and behold. Of course you always get invested always. There's no like at first audition, you know, maybe you could be like Okay, cool, I'm done, you can let it go. When you get a call back, you're like yeah, like incrementally too. It's like first you're

like maybe invested five percent. The next thing you like, next you know, you're like two thousand percent. What just happened there? So all that happened and I got all the way to the point of screen testing again. And at this point I was there, there were like two their dudes who were like way better looking than me, way younger than me, and they were like amazing at stunts. I saw them doing it and I was like, frick, They're not gonna have two Asian dudes on here, you know.

So I was just like feeling a little discouraged, but I did it. Anyways, after all that was done, it was quiet, and you know, you guys know the screen testing anything with the test option of like your time is here to here, and once like you reach like June thirty or whatever, you have to be released from

the test opice. So that means you at least know when you don't get it as opposed to like prior to So it got to the point of, like, I think it was May no, no, yeah, it was June June three, which was the day that it cut off, And it was June twenty two and night, and I had not heard anything back. And I was on on a shoe that day. I was on a shoe with my brother and we were on film, and uh, it was like ten o'clock and I got a text from the producer saying like, um, hey, I'd like to talk

to you. And at this point I was like, twenty second, what is going on? So I went up to my brother and I was like, hey, do you check this out. It is either really good news or really bad news, hoping that he'd be like, yeah, you should call him yeah, and so I was like yeah, and then he was like oh um and at that point his face just dropped,

like completely dropped. He You could you could tell when somebody's not joking, you know, like, no matter how good of an actor they are in real life situations, you could tell when somebody was joking. So he was like, dude, um, you didn't get it. And I was like, what, don't screw with me? Dude, like, this is you know how big this is to me, how important this is to me. Like if if you screw around with me right now, I will break down. We're on set. I can't afford

the breakdown. And he was like, no, dude, like a Chip called me actually two hours ago and told me like, hey, Peter didn't get it. How should I tell him that he didn't get it? And I was like, oh my god, that's how you gotta be joking. So he called me and he was like, hey, you didn't get it. Um, I don't have much time right now because I'm actually in a meeting and I know that you're on a shoot.

Let me call you back. I just want to talk to you because I do really care about you as a person, and I want to let you know why you didn't get it, just so you understand that's not yeah exactly. And I was like at that point, I honestly didn't care to talk because I was so upset. But which one was for this? Again? This was for

Ninja steal? Okay, Yeah, so this was two years ago, I think, And so I was like, well, if he was kind enough to go out of his way to say that, I might as well just talk to him, you know, and like, at least maybe it'll make me feel a little bit better why I didn't get it. So after the shoe was done, this was two in the morning, I was driving home and I finally called him and he was like, hey, Peter, okay, um, I really want to talk to you. If you're on the

on the street, can you pull over something? And I was like alright, so I pull over and he was like, okay, well, um, the reason why you didn't get it, Peter, or should I say Preston, is because you're ninja steal blue And I was like, what what what? What are you? What are you saying when I legit? I don't know if I could cuss on here, but yeah, we'll it. I was like, don't and he turns out I got it. And the reason why he told Yoshi that was because

he wants to surprise him people. I love it. It's funny because I like, I know that they surprised Yoshi, but I was still I know. That's why that's why I took it for granted, because you don't hear like executives doing that. Oh good thing, you didn't like cuss somebody off. I've given you my heart and my soul. But man, you gotta be that person was really good because because because if he would have been like, don't tell your brother, but you did get it and you

were on set, you would have let it slip. There's no way you would have been. So he was like, I gotta wait till they get off set, and he's like, all right, this is what's going down, so tell tell the story because I really like it's very cute, and we're gonna post to send me the video so we can press it on the footnotes. It's on Bethany's up. She has like all the back ends of it too. Yeah.

But so after that I had to wait two weeks before Yoshi could know, because after that it was two weeks until Power More Icon, which is coming up soon. That's when they do to reveal. So up until that time, I was like still playing DND with my brother, and I was like trying to put in like little hints

and stuff, you know. But we're playing DND and like we passed by like this, um this martial arts gym right by because I play Emerald Nights and there's this martial arts place called a blue dragon martial Arts, and the day before Power work On we drove past it and my sword, by the way, is a blue dragon. So you she was like, hey, Peter, look at that blue dragon martial arts, like just like that, just the way I just said it. And I was like, does

this guy knows? Like is he screwing with me? So then the day of Power Workon came and uh, I was gonna go down the thing and they were like reading the names. They wanted to read me last because they wanted to do the whole like surprise with the Ocean. At that point, I was already annoyed because I was like, yeah, he's pointed out multiple things that shows me that he knows,

like I know he knows. And um the moment that, like my name was supposed to get called up, so it was like this person, uh, this color, this person, this color is this person? There was like a beat a pattern, you know, and then it got to me and it was like and the blue Ranger and yoh, she was supposed to read my name and all I heard was and I was like, what what's going on? And then that's when I knew that like he didn't know. Yeah, then he called my name and he could even say

my name, Like the dude just started breaking down. And even to this day, like every time I watched it, I still get feelings just because of how raw his emotions were. Yeah, I'm pulling it up for Danny right now. It's like the cutest. Yeah. Yeah, we will definitely post it. Uh, I'm gonna get it. So how crazy was it? Like right after that? What was the Because their fan base is pretty ravenous, like in a good way. They just

like eat up everything. They're extremely passionate, and that's the one thing that I will say, like I love about the Ranger fan base. Like, but the thing is, like I've already kind of always been in semi spotlight with them because the Mega foresting when they put me up on IMDb. So a lot of the Ranger fans actually

have like stayed with me since eleven. Wow, yeah, since two thousand eleven until I booked in two thousand and sixteen, and then a lot of them were like, dude, you've been here since day one and your brother was last year. So it just it just worked out really well in my favorite Yeah, and so I mean i'd see how much you love being a ranger, Like what, like, man, it just because that's like especially ninety kids dream as being like a power ranger. So what what is it like?

Putting on the suit and all with the suit itself is actually pretty dang awesome. Like it's the suit is lightweight, it's it breeds, it gets kind of cold, but uh and when it gets hot, it gets really really hot, but it's it's awesome. Um. Besides that, we actually only got to be in the sea like three times overall, once Paramorphic on, once for a studio photo shoot, and once for the Morpha because they used the footage from the super Center. Right, So how many action figures of yourself?

Do you think? I have one of them that I'm like modding up? Yeah, but like that's it, oh man, that you're You're way more humble than me, because I would have every if the action figure that I can get my hands on. Now, I'm a big Gundam guys, like is like filled with Gundam's and it just doesn't fit to put about. Yeah, you're like, I'm sorry, I'm more of a Zoids guy myself. I can't forget the bomb. So so what do you feel is next? For you

do you like, Um, I I'm I'm big on creating. Uh. This pastor has been really good in terms of acting. I've been booking like jobs, little ones just left and right. But I'm I'm looking forward to creating my own stuff. I've always been interested in like comic books. Um, anything that's really like superhero or even like a little bit of fantasy I just love. So I've been working on like two different series currently. Um, one of them hopefully

i'll be Uh. I'm working on like a system, a D and D system that's like a subregion, sub class for five gus played. Yeah, I'm doing that. Hopefully I'll be doing that with hyper RPG in a bit. And um, I'm writing another feature that who knows if it's going to see the letter day, Well we can make it do it. Yeah, So do you want to do stuff that you know implements martial arts? Since that seems to be really I mean, I do it only for like as an actor, it's nice to have like action stunts,

like can you do martial arts? I'm like, yeah, I could do a whole sequence of XM and do a backflip. But if you're gonna ask me to do it on the show. I'd rather get a double. Yeah. But that's also because my brother is a stuntman too, and he's always told me, like if somebody else you're like, can you do something while you're on set? Not obviously not an audition room, audition room. You do it because you can.

You show them that you can. But like on set you're like, I prefer the stunt person does it, just so you don't take away somebody's job. Oh wow, Yeah that's true. You know, like the stunt industry is very they're like the unsung heroes. You are because I do so much. But then you have like these guys like Donnie In and Jackie Chan who like are the master of both worlds and you're like, oh man, how do you Then they started as stunt guys. Jackie Chance was

stunt and a stunt double. In entered The Dragon, dude, I don't even know that. Yeah. He has a very famous story that he had with Bruce Lee where I think Bruce Lee accidentally like punched him and he was like, oh no, it was like an honor please. So you get like stopped and stuffed by people or they're like little kids trying to take what about like did you guys like hit the con circuit and stuff like after it was announced. I've always been a huge con guy.

I'm actually leaving a fantom in like, but I don't. I don't go to cons for like those guest stuff. But well at least it hasn't come up yet. But I do go to cons a lot just for my own stuff because I love cosplaying and I'm huge into nerd culture. Yeah, so what are you working on any cost plays? Yeah? Growing my hair out because I did this thing on Twitter where I didn't realize the power of Twitter. It's insane, can be good and bad. There's

a lot of power on Twitter. You can breaks. So I did a thing like someone tweeted me a couple weeks back. I believe they were like, hey, Peter Yoshi, what how many retweets to get you guys to do this cosplay? And it's like, um, magical girl or I think it's like about these girls who like make a contract with like a yakuza demon and so they become instead of like becoming a magical girl, they turned up like this dudes which just beat people up with like staff.

That's great. So it's like a dude wearing like freely everything because like it's what the girl was wearing. Yeah, and so I was like, yeah, one k. Yeah, I didn't. I didn't realize one k is always too low for how many retweets. I didn't always too low for how many retweets. It's always gonna because I don't like retweeting. I only favorite when people are like, how many retweets for a blank? They're going to hit at least one day.

I didn't know that, so I said one k, and then I got to one k. Within the Yoshi was like, dude, that's so low. Why not ten k? Because so to get him on it, we needed to get ten k and then in two days ten k. So that's the cost way that like we're working on right now. That's dope. I can't wait to see that. And I'm going out my hair for that. And also I'm costplaying Saske and I'm costplaying Mugan for okay, Wow, that's gonna be fun. Where is fan of It's up in San Jose. Oh nice?

So are you driving? Are you gonna fly? I'm a big fan of car camping. Go sleep in our car for two nights come back down. Yeah that's nice. Yeah, no, car camping has a good time. It's so much fun and people don't realize how much fun it is. And it's free. Yeah, it's free. It's free. That's the best part. So what do you think is the future for Power Rangers? Because this I feel like this formula can just go forever because we've been able to rinse, repeat for so long.

I actually personally love their formula because it gives a chance for literally new faces every year to become superheroes. Uh. The one thing that I'm not really sure about is they just sold off to Hasbro. Yea, I have zero Like that's the thing that like people always ask me, like, hey, you know with Power Rangers, what's gonna happen with this? This? This?

As actors for Power Rangers, we get everything last. We get pictures last, Like all the promotional pictures we get last, all the like invites to things people like are you going to Power Morphicon? We don't know what? Yeah, well, a lot of the times, like they don't tell us these things, and I don't understand why they don't, but they don't. I'm sure they have a good reason for it. But even like pictures, we don't get any of that stuff.

So in terms of where Power Range is gonna go in Hasbro, I had to find out through Twitter by the way, So um, and I'm still uncontracted. It's strange. Um. I think personally Power Ranges is going in a really good direction. Last year they did the movie, which definitely like aged up the scene, and then they have this comic book series that's really good. Right now, you guys are into that. It's with Boom, right, Yeah. Yeah, the

comic series is phenomenal. They did Shattered Grid, which was like a tie in with the hyper RPG thing as well. That that was a super cool move to to have you guys tied into the comics. Yeah, because if you if you're thinking about it, like from a brand standpoint, that's what I would have done to the beginning, Like have a show that's successful, have a comic that's completely different, tie in one thing from the comic and the TV show. Suddenly, boom,

You've got a really cool thing going on. Yeah you know. So in that sense, I think Power Rangers is definitely going to be continuing to move forward and hopefully Hasbro starts to make different changes to like the way that the show works too. Yeah, because I'd like to see some different stuff happening on the show nice, like what I would like there to be a little bit of higher stakes, Like I know that it's a kid yeah, but just to tackle your point right as it comes

out of your mouth. But even though it's a kids show, I feel like I think the Cartoon Network, Yeah, Cartoon Network has shown us that kids can handle like stuff. If you think of the kids show we had grown Up, which were excellent that was like deep and heavy, like you had the story of you had the story of the X Men coming to Jubileese parents and telling them that they have to take her to the institution because they will try to kill them, and sure enough the

Sentinels burst into the house. Like that was the stuff we were watching as kids. Kids Dark. Yeah, you know, I'm like, I feel like, um, if you if you don't give real plot to kids, they won't understand the real you know, like they kids are as smart as you make them to be. They're sponges. And when I was young, like it was Last Airbender, Jackie Adventures, X Men, even the Batman series, World Super Dark and then those

movies were like super like to the max. It was great, but we were able to digest it just fine, you know, and they were good. You know. It makes you think it's like children, you start to learn how to to grab for the points as opposed to being like spoon fed all the points. Besides that, I think the Power Rangers got a really good formula. Ya. I think in the future something I'd like to see what the Power Ranges because, like I said, I followed like a lot

of the metal hero stuff in Japan really big. Yeah. I like Ultraman and I liked Ultraman X, which was the older aged up version of Ultraman that they had where it was darker. It was like almost like a sci fi dark sci fi that deep points, and it was marketed and made for adults. And I would love something like that to exist in the Power Rangers of Umbrella. I've been trying. Okay, so Hyperforce that that was like

definitely a step in the right direction. But imagine a series like Hyperforce before Netflix for the older generation, not just for kids, or even a web series if you wanted to do web series even with stuff like that, that could go great as well. Yeah, you know, yeah, but I don't know that. It's the possibilities are endless. They really are. And to be honest, with all the different supercentile like heroes and stuff, they literally have endless

possible Well that's true. Yeah, that's so good. There are twenty six seasons. I think that's what we counted. Yeah, and Super Seni is even more because they've got like forty well I'm a bad Power Ranger I think forty three or five somewhere because they were going on for a minute before the US got involved. Yeah, so they have all those uster job for him. They have the Common Writer series which came out to the US. That's the one I would make, either Common Writer or Ultraman

the US aged up like metal hero franchise. Yeah, because imagine something like tin Wolf. Tin Wolf is still can't be kind of like young ish, but they've got like real consequences darker, Yes, something like that. With Common Writer. Were like the guys don't even have to be like it's morph in time and it's just like just transformed. Oh yeah, you just like, what about you, Danny, anything you'd like to see in Power Ranges? Um, you know, I think it's okay to have two people of the

same ethnicity. Well they do, they do. Yeah, yeah, enjoy people in there. You know Latina too. Um. You know we're different. Some of us are, you know, from Cuba, some from Mexico. Anyways, we're not all the same. But that is the one thing that I gotta admit is actually a strong point for Power Rangers, even though like, yeah, they won't like have like not they have before, but they don't always like try to put in like two

of the same ethnicities in there. Um. The fact that they even like are going out of their way to put in I know, yeah, even where their bar is is above the bar of most television, which is kind of sad, especially on a c W. C W loves like hot, disinterested white young people. It's like the Hills just never perpetually. Yeah, and our season was actually pretty diverse as well. Yeah, we had a William who was

half white, half Indian, but he's from South America. Yeah, We've got Zoe who's a Kiwis, she's African American African Qui. And then we've got Jordy who is Modi but from New Zealand as well. Meum not American and Chinese, and a bunch of other people, So it's like it's it's got a pretty good mixing on yeah yeah yeah, was it just the whole bunch of like New Zealand Kiwi folks on It's that's what it sounded like. Yeah, yeah, we have to two of our six well night, well
