Return of the Rangers

Colton, Cooper and their buddy Jacob ...
Can you name WHICH types of Power Rangers they are?
Can you sing their theme songs?
I can ...

It seems like Power Rangers have been around forever ... I remember first finding them when Landon was just a little guy. Through the years, we picked up a few costumes here and there. We've had a lot of the action figures around for quite a while. Usually they are away in a box, but every so often they would reappear.

And they're back ... the cause of their return? Netflix. We had a few movies on DVD (and VHS!) but recently, Netflix added ALL (I think all, there are SO many) the series to their instant stream. We've been watching a LOT of Power Rangers this past week! Many of the older ones I remember from years ago, other more recent ones that are completely new to me. We had to dig out the costumes ...

If you haven't seen Power Rangers ... some (ok, all) of them are pretty cheesy. Often we just laugh out loud at some of the lines and fight scenes. Every "type" of ranger (series) has it's own theme song. Yes ... we know most of them and have several on the Ipod. How many Power Rangers are there?

  • Mighty Morphin
  • Alien
  • Zeo
  • Turbo
  • Space
  • Lost Galaxy
  • LightSpeed (the red ranger's last name is "Grayson" so I've got to like him ...)
  • Time Force
  • Wildforce (this series has the famous "Forever Red" episode, with ALL the red rangers to date making an appearance)
  • Ninja Storm
  • Dino Thunder
  • SPD
  • Mystic Force
  • Operation Overdrive
  • Jungle Fury
  • RPM
  • Samuai (this is new, as of 2011 ... not streamable, so I haven't seen this)
