Re: Why did Zordon let the Rangers leave?
They had to make all of those changes because the cast members protaying those characters either wanted to leave or were fired or just basically walked out. Austin, Thuy and Walter walked out due to a pay dispute. Amy Jo wanted out because she wanted to persue new projects. Same goes for Karan and Steve, but it's David Yost who went trough crap on the Zeo set and just decided to leave one day. Which was the right choice anyway for many reasons which I fully support.
Of course their characters wouldn't just walk away. The writers had to write them off because they had no cast member to potray them. They had no choice but to do what they did, because the show must go on. Which means that Billy, Rocky, Aisha, Kimberly, Zack, Trini and Jason probably contributed their part during a world crisis, it's just that we didn't see it.
