Medina and Deker
Why didn't they have Medina play Cole in Samurai?

Because they wanted him to be a villian. Cole wasn't a villian. Also Deker's backstory didn't align with Cole's.

Re: Medina and Deker
I'm surprised they don't have more former Rangers come back to play other characters. Especially with the show being in New Zealand.

Re: Medina and Deker
I thought for sure Medina was Cole. I figured he was gonna be possessed by a Nighlok spirit in a similar situation Merrick was in. But thats not the route they went. I was surprised since they went to the trouble to fly Medina to New Zealand.

Re: Medina and Deker
I don't see that working. It would be kind of out of left field. Using Merricm would have made more sense.

Re: Medina and Deker
Cole wasn't evil like Deker or Merrick.

Re: Medina and Deker
I don't think the character would fit in Samurai. Which didn't have any direct ties to Wild Force. Besides being in the same continuity. I can't see a reason for using Cole. So Medina as a new character made far more sense.

Re: Medina and Deker
He was in more control then he let on. All of Zen-Aku's deeds were his fault. Plus he let Zen-Aku follow him in the end. And he wasn't a very nice person as Merrick anyway.

Re: Medina and Deker
I don't know if Merrick was evil but he was a bad guy and should never have been a Ranger. Zordon never would have tolerwted his loner behaviour.
