Mighty Morphin #1.48 – Plague of the Mantis

I’m honestly so excited for the next episode that I’m having trouble focusing on this one. But I’m determined to give you a good recap, so here we go! Luckily for me, we have a Trini-centric episode to keep me grounded. We begin with her practicing what I assume is tai chi, but as we’veContinue reading “Mighty Morphin #1.48 – Plague of the Mantis”

Mighty Morphin #1.47 – Reign of the Jellyfish

We begin in Ms. Appleby’s classroom, which is nice, because I was honestly starting to worry about her given the number of times we’ve seen Principal Caplan substituting for her recently. The class is putting together a time capsule, and Ms. Appleby calls each member of the cast forward in turn to see what theyContinue reading “Mighty Morphin #1.47 – Reign of the Jellyfish”

Mighty Morphin #1.46 – To Flea or Not to Flee

The teens are running a drive to save the Juice Bar, which is apparently about to go out of business.

Mighty Morphin #1.43 – Something Fishy

We open with the main cast discussing how excited they are for their upcoming scuba diving trip, which feels like something teenagers wouldn’t normally be allowed to do unsupervised. Coincidentally, Bulk and Skull have planned a fishing trip at the exact same time, and taunt the teens about how they won’t be able to seeContinue reading “Mighty Morphin #1.43 – Something Fishy”

Mighty Morphin #1.41 – Rita’s Seed of Evil

We are officially two-thirds of the way through the first season of Power Rangers, ladies and gentlemen! We begin with the teens working on a science project that for some reason Principal Caplan is overseeing. He declares that the saplings they’ve grown are in magnificent shape, and it’s time to start planting them in theContinue reading “Mighty Morphin #1.41 – Rita’s Seed of Evil”

Mighty Morphin #1.40 – Doomsday: Part 2

I gave this multi-parter a lot of grief last episode, but let’s focus on the positives: It’s already infinitely better than “Island of Illusion.” In all seriousness, despite continuity and pacing issues (and being, you know…Power Rangers), the writers have done a good job so far of building tension and establishing a story that shakesContinue reading “Mighty Morphin #1.40 – Doomsday: Part 2”
