Default Should Power Rangers have comedy characters?

MMPR and the Neo Saban Era had a lot of comedy side characters. Should the series use them?

I think it really depends on how they are used. Bulk and Skull worked because the audience cared about them and the actors really put heart into their roles. I feel like the Neo Saban Comedy Duo's were trying to hard to be Bulk and Skull. DinoThunder did it right because Devin and Cassidy were more then just comedy characters, they had their own archs and grew.

Marah and Kapri would have worked if the rest of the villains weren't so comedic.

Which is why they worked better in th secod half when more serious villains were added.

Comedy characters are fine. Trying to create a new version of Bulk and Skull every year doesn't work though. It just feels forced and the concept can't be recreated generically. There is only one Bulk and Skull tandem.

I'm glad they aren't trying to do a Bulk and Skull like characters in Dino Fury.

I just don't like when they try to make every comedy character Bulk and Skull clones.

It depends on what kind of comedy they do or if its really funny.

For me, either not for a while or just change how their doing it. I never liked what happened to Bulk and Skull in season 1 and have grown
tired of the crazy mess ups of the last two duos. Dino Fury has been better
than the previous 2 seasons so far in that regard. Sometimes I have liked Bulk and Skull.
I really enjoyed the comedy duo in Ninja Storm, and didn't mind Bulk and Spike at all.

Bulk and Skull worked because of the right actors and the good writing for their characters.

Devin's and Cassidy's characters worked for the show because of the same reason.

Ninja Storm was just Friends done in Power Rangers style.

Boom worked because... it's Boom.

The show needs comedic characters that actually work for the show by having their own story archs and growth. Victory and Mounty were horrible. Ben and Betty was in the step in the right direction. Mick was a step in the right direction in Dino Fury.

Marah and Kapri would actually work if the whole villain group wouldn't act like they're in some sticom. No wonder Doug had to call JDF for DinoThunder. They completely messed up everything with Ninja Storm. No wonder the raitings were down.
