Looks interesting, I know Jason David Frank turned down appearing in this, yet they have a Green Ranger represented in this....going to hit a little different in light of the tragedy, though it's not the first time they've had a team-up involving a Ranger JDF played without his involvement (SPD/Dino Thunder's "Wormhole" springs to mind)

God this show was all the rage when I was a kid. I watched it for years, right up to Time Force. 30 years, bloody hell.

Since most of the later seasons are on Youtube for free now, I'd recommend the following post-Time Force seasons -Ninja Storm -Dino Thunder (Tommy returns) -SPD -RPM (last of the Disney era seasons) |

I haven't. Sadly, while I can enjoy shows like Ultraman, I struggle to watch super sentai series.
I will give it a look in though and I thinking of watching the original run on Netflix.

Once and Always is now on Netflix
Overall, it's fine. It zips by in under an hour, it's largely a showcase for two of the veteran Rangers, Zack and Billy, and the new kid on the block, Trini's daughter, who becomes the Yellow Ranger after she unlocks the power taking a hit for Billy. Katherine and Rocky make up the rest of the team, but they just seem kind of 'there', we do learn what they've been up, Katherine looking after her and Tommy's son, Rocky is a firefighter. Zack is in congress, and Billy has his own Earth-based business and personal Command Centre, while still dating Cestria on Aquitar, he is working on a way of bringing Zordon back, and his actions create Robo Rita who then kills Alpha 8 (by possessing him) and eventually Trini.
There are connections to SPD, the finale of Power Rangers In Space, and the Boom produced comic books. And even though it is archive footage taken from one of the early episodes, we do get to see Amy Jo Johnson perform a song as Kimberly with all of the core original MMPR team, Tommy included, seated around her, followed by a dedication to the lives and memories of Thuy Trang and Jason David Frank
The ending alludes that Billy's quest to restore Zordon will continue

Pretty ok I thought.
It has been sooo long since I watched the show but I appreciated what they did here. It's maybe not as grand as I would have liked but then I'm shore they didn't have the budget for something too over the top. The only real weak point was the Dino Megazord and it's final battle. It just doesn't feel the same.
Still pretty good.
