Lord Zedd and Rita should have had a kid
 
I'm not talking about Thrax. I mean during MMPR season 3 or Zeo. Prince Sprocket proves that a kid villain could work. It would have been a natural progression for the two to start an evil family.

It would have made "Once A Ranger" make more sense. Except for the part about facing Sentinal Knight millions of years ago.

Wasn't Rito enough of a kid to worry about?

I think that would have been too mature for a kids show. They would have never had the two of them have a kid during MMPR. I really don't think they needed one.

I would have liked seeing another kid villain if it was done right. Would have been pretty funny.

I never thought of this before. I don't think it was needed though. I think they were fine the way things were.

I would have liked it if they used Kai as Rita's son. I think MMPR would have been much better if they kept that storyline.

I can see this going both ways. The idea of two villains having a kid during the course of the show is pretty ridiculous and as you pointed out too mature for a kids show. Plus, as dysfunctional as they were as a couple, the last thing they needed was a kid.

But then if they had a already existing kid like King Mondo & Queen Machina's son Prince Sprocket, they might have pulled that off. But it really wouldn't have added anything in my opinion.

I don't think it would have pushed the "mature" boundaries too much but I personally didn't see any need for one when you already had Rita and Zedd for leaders plus you had Goldar as a soldier, you had Finster to help out with monster creations, Squatt and Baboo for comic relief and Rito for additional comic relief once he appeared in Season 3.

There were too many villains to begin with as of Season 3.

Plus the short lived appearances of Scorpina, there was definitely a pretty large cast of villians. Squatt, Baboo, and later Rito: all filled that void of being whiny, young, immature, and stupid that a "child" role probably would have been anyway.

I think this idea would have been silly and unneeded. Like has been been mentioned, there was already enough villains. There didn't need to be some kid around. I don't think the Kai storyline would have worked in MMPR.

MattEmily 02/05/15 01:23 PM

Re: Lord Zedd and Rita should have had a kid
 
I agree the Kai storyline wouldn't have worked in the series since Rita wasn't a sorceress that was out for revenge because she believed dinosaurs had murdered her son. She was just a sorceress that was in a war against Zordon and decided to set her sights on Earth because it was the closest planet to the Moon.

It would have been cool to see a young Thrax in MMPR. I bet he would have been pretty funny.

Re: Lord Zedd and Rita should have had a kid
 
I'm sure the idea of Thrax didn't even exist during the existence of MMPR. But if it did, Saban could have made and sold more toys.

Re: Lord Zedd and Rita should have had a kid
 
I'm sure the idea of Thrax was something that took the writers five minutes to come up with. Of course they didn't get a chance to make it make sense.

technically Saban doesn't make or sell toys that's Bandai's job and they rarely make villain figures. Back during MMPR they sold figures of all lead villains except for Scorpina even though there were concept plans to sell her in her Monster Form. MMPR was pretty much the only series where they made villain figures for most of the leadership crew.
