Default Original Red Ranger (Austin aka Jason) reveals what line he hated the most

I came across this link http://comicbook.com/powerrangers/20...power-rangers/ not too long ago and I thought it was an interesting article.

Quote:
"I wish that had happened when I had episode whatever it was with Pineapple the Clown. I hate that line to this day, so if I could've changed that one I would have, but I couldn't yet."

The ep he is referring to is titled "No Clowning Around" where Pineapple turns Trini's cousin Sylvia into a cardboard cut out. Austin remembers the line all too well and has some ideas for what could've worked better.

"Another six months and I would've totally rewritten that thing and been like "No, Jason's going to come around the corner like Dirty Harry and be like do you feel lucky punk? Do Ya," St. John said. He would have greatly preferred that to what the script called for which was "You're going down clown!"

Seems like he was half joking. His line would have never made it past the writing staff. The real line eas pretty corny though. We got a lot of that in those days though.

I really liked this episode. The line was fine and part of the charm of MMPR. It was a Trini episode anyway.

This was a grest Trini episode. We got to lewrn she had a nice and got to see her protect her. Which really show'ed Trini's protectiveness for her family and friends.

I don't think he was joking but I do agree that his new line wouldn't have been approved since it comes across as a mean-spirited bully.

yup that it was a great Trini episode but it was her cousin and not her niece.

I could see where people!e would misremember her as her niece. Given the big age gap.

I don't know what age has to do with it since someone can have a niece even if they aren't that old.

I agree with Austin. I also wish the episode was darker. I think the monster should have been turning carnival goers into putties. Trini would have had to save Silvy from becoming a putty.

I think the episode is about as dark as MMPR season 1 was going to get.

That would have been interesting but I don't see them going that dark. Especially back then.
