There has been a lot of talk about the Omega Ranger being a ball of light because of the lack of funds avialable for another regular. Assuming this is true, I feel that this could have been avioded easily. I mean look at all the extra characters we have that are unneccessary. Obviously Cruger and the Rangers were all needed, with Manx. But do we honestly need Boom? He isn't even in half the episodes, at least not in center stage. So if you wanted to save money you could have cut him. On the Villain's side, I actually thunk you could have just went with Broodwing as the lead villain. But I suppose Gruum and Morgana ( lets not forget getting rid of Morgana would have saved the salaries of two actors ) do make things more interesting, so lets only drop one of the two. As for Piggy, well I think you can put him in the Boom catagory. He really isn't needed and doesn't appear in a lot of episodes. He should be cut before you even think about Gruumm or Morgana. So there you have it, two characters who could have been diffinitly cut along with one possible ( assuming you get rid of Gruumm or Morgana). I realize the actors who portray the more important characters are probably paid more ( thus making an Omega actor, more expensive) but I think cutting the above would still have saved a considerable amount of money. And if that still wasn't enough, both Gruumm and Morgana could have been cut out. Than maybe you could have had an adult Sam actually be played a real actor, instead of a vo artist. Now I know they might not of known about Omega's counterpart in Deka early enough, so maybe this isn't fair. I just feel that they could have saved themselves trouble if they didn't add as many useless side characters.

Boom & Piggy were definatley waste of time, money, brain power, etc. Shoot the fool who decided they were needed, as for shoot to kill that is up the guy/gal with the gun.
Broodwing or Grumm not both. Mora or Morgana, stick with the one who has tits and wouldn't need a teacher on staff (or does the child pay for that?) And I am in favor of Sam=Energy ball, he obviously likes it with the lack of bitching when about it. Plus it saves us from another ugly actor. The only decent looking ones we got since Disney's production company taking over is Tommy and Kira. The rest were either to plain or way ugly. *cough*NS*cough* |
Speacking abput NS and omega, that motorcycle guy in "all about beevil" is the voice actor for omega, and boom is pointless, one episode would be funny but not a whole series, piggy is just, uhhm, how do i say it?, *barfs* thats about right

This is from Ray Calderon the only guy who can make PRC decent apparently, in reference to what Ray knows from Bruce about Omega not having a human body on display.

On a second note. PR tends to do that always. Have useless chars i mean. (points at original topic)
Squatt and Baboo for one... no use what so ever. They were typical 'filler'. |
:( I didn't know the reason Sam couldn't demorph was because they couldn't pay the actor. To me that's really sad. The show would have been much more special if we could have seen what Sam looked like as an adult. However, I do agree Greg and Ray deserves some credit for making sure Omega was a character people watching could care about anyway. The only reason Piggy is there I think is simply from inertia. Most PR seasons have a secondary character who runs some kind of business, starting with Ernie's clear back in MMPR. Plus, it does give Delta Squad a source of underground info.
As far as which villian could have been cut, I'm not sure. Bloodwing is only semi regular in SPD, so he doesn't seem critical to the plot. While making the SPD rangers' main enemy an eight year old girl who later evolves into an adult would have been creepy as anything, I like Grumm and Mora/Morgana because of the bizzare relationship between them. I'm dying to know what's behind it. On a minor note, while I have no problem with people who think Morgana's hot, Cheetamus Primal, was it really nescesary to put it so crudely? You make it sound like the only casting requirement for her character was her bust size. I know if I was the actress who played Morgana and I came across your comment, I'd be very upset.

I don't seem to recall that. NS and DT were both billed for 38 episodes I believe. Where did you get your information? |
Quote:
NS was always billed for 38 from the very beginning. DT when information was first released said there would be 32 episodes, I remember this because people were complaining about how just the previous year they shortened the season to 38 and how some were very skeptical that they would shorten by that much when just the previous year they shortened it to 38 from 40. |
So S.P.D. has more episodes

lol big waste of time on any of the shows were bulk and skull big waste of time. they were funy charracters but a waste.
|
We could pack alot more action into one episode
|
I just hope they give the other characters some attention instead of making Sky the focus of 60% of the episodes.
And I hope they have something planned for Piggy, I really love his design. |
a real waste is when carter was talking to the girl and later girl and her parents.
this was called Trakeena's Revenge. the koool thing is when lightspeed and lost galaxy. http://rangercentral.com/episodes/ep368/eppic17.jpg http://rangercentral.com/episodes/ep367/eppic12.jpg |
I would have to say the ball of light, is pretty useless character.

In power Rangers there are plenty of useless Characters. SPD isn't the only.
Sam however, Not only a character thats just there, but has less lines. But hey, If they were no Omega Ranger, Everyone would be like "WTF? Why no Dekabreak? FU Disney!" |

Yeah, the LG/LR team up was diffinitly one of the more weaker team ups. I mean people complain about the DT/SPD, but I think LG/LR was weaker. |
