Default MMPR Is Overrated!

On the day of of it's premiere, 20 years later, we looked back at Power Rangers history. But what's always bugged me is how overrated MMPR is. Personally, I can't understand how people watch it. I can understand nostalgia, but let me give you a reasonable argument. Every time I hear those obnoxious swishing sounds every time the rangers move, I cringe. What's the point?! Even today, Power Rangers still do it, but it's not as apparent and less frequent, so I'll let never seasons off the hook. I won't forget the music either. People complain about how Power Rangers Samurai reuses the same song over and over too much?! Look at why! And the rangers personalities themselves are ridiculously unrealistic. Now, that's not to say that any aspect of PR is realistic, but these guys are insane cardboard cutouts. You think Troy has no personality? Did Jason really have anything else to him besides liking Martial Arts, being "cool", and being a leader? And my last gripe is the story. There's 5 teens with very different personalities who hang out and are kidnapped by a talking blue head to because heroes in a rainbow of spandex colors who fight an evil space witch and her minions. The minions also grow and fight the teen's giant dinosaur robot. Later, there's an evil green teenager added with a dragon robot, who fight the other teenagers and then become friends. They also get a white brachiosaurus robot, and green loses his powers. They the teens get new robots and switch with other teens. Heck, the story is so basic, I could tell it to a 6 year old and he could tell it back (I wonder why...)

Conclusion: Because of Nostalgia, I think MMPR gets more love than it deserves. Honestly, I personally think the first 3 seasons were all very weak. I just wanted to share my thoughts and see what everybody else thinks.
