Mighty Morphin' Plots You Are Surprised They Didn't Have
Mighty Morhin' Power Rangers ran for three years, and it seems like every episode dealt with one of the Rangers dealing with a problem, from Zack thinking everyone forgot his birthday to Billy having a fear of fish. What is one plot that you were thinking would happen eventually but never did, or looking back is something you think they could have done an episode around?
One episode idea that I'm surprised they never did in MMPR, but did later on in Turbo, was have an episode where the Pink Ranger was worried about her weight. In the three seasons of MMPR they never used that plot, even though it seems to be one that television writers use sooner or later.
Since Kimberly was a valley girl that was very conscious of appearance, I could have easily imagined an episode where she was worried about her weight and wanted to go on a diet. Maybe she gets on the scale and makes a big deal about a couple of pounds, or during her favorite activity (shopping) she finds something she likes but it's too small. Then Rita would find someway to exploit Kimberly's dilemma like she always does. Not sure which monster would have been a good fit for it, which is maybe why it didn't happen until they had Numbor in Turbo.
