Default Should Tommy have come back?

I think the show would have been better off if Tommy didn't come back after he lost the Green Ranger powers for the final time. He stopped being an interesting character by this point and started to tottally take over the show. Tommy did all he needed to do by that piont. And he already got a second life when he temporally got his powers back. It would have been better to let Tommy ride off into the sunset and make someone else the White Ranger.

Tommy was the most popular character on the show. Thats why they brought him back the first time. And really once they brought him back he was going to be around permanently. They were never going to get rid of Tommy at that point.

No way! We beeded the happy ending with Tommy becoming White Ranger. And not having Tommy around for as long as he was would have hurt the show big time. Its bad enough Kimberly left before MMPR was even finished..

Tommy didn't overtake anything. He got a ton of focus in season 2 once he came back. But that made sense to reward the fans for everything he went through. In season 3 other characters got focus too.

Why would they write off the most popular character? The only reason he left the first time was because it was the original plan.

I liked having Tommy back. Maybe they coukd have wrote him off after Zeo to give him a better send off then what he got in Turbo.

At least he wasn't replaced by a kid like Rocky was.

I thought Richie was going to be the White Ranger. I'm glad it ended up being Tommy.

Too bad Saban was too cheap to produce new Green Ranger footage.

how would you explain the Zyu2 footage that required the Green Ranger then?

but I disagree I still think he was an interesting character. He came back but with temporary powers which was an awesome storyline for him but then his powers were fully exhausted against Turban Shell. He was chosen to be the new White Ranger which made sense and I understand your complaint that he was a power hog but I think that was more to do with the powers that he had as the White Ranger. His power level severely diminished when Ninjor gave him new powers since it wasn't a Ranger that he created and he didn't have access to Zordon and Alpha 5's Light of Goodness. Also although he was the Red Ranger in Zeo and Turbo he really didn't have much of a spotlight and even when he came back in Dino Thunder the spotlight went to the new characters except for like maybe 3 episodes.
