* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]: [[Atop the Fourth Wall (Web Video)|Linkara]] puts forth the theory that Tommy's [[Journey to Thethe Center of Thethe Mind]] in "Fighting Spirit" was brought about because he thinks of himself as a Power Ranger first and Tommy Oliver second, and that the images of his past Ranger identities were trying to make him realize that without the man, there is no Ranger.
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|Jason]] [[Power Rangers ZEOZeo|David]] [[Power Rangers Turbo|Frank]], [[Memetic Badass|of course]].
* [[Come for Thethe X, Stay Forfor Thethe Y]]: More than a few fans who came onboard because of Tommy's return ended up staying for the awesome [[True Companions]] Conner, Kira, Ethan and Trent became.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Mesogog, who is pretty much a dino-Hitler.
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: The background music whenever the Rangers morph. Listen to it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_zf8LI39OU&feature=player_profilepage here].
** For shame for not mention the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaPaULI06NI theme song], even [[Atop the Fourth Wall (Web Video)|Linkara]] mentioned that the song had grown on him, and has a strong rock rhythm to it.
* [[Ear Worm]]: There is a certain catchy flavor to the themes song about how "Victory is ours forevermore!"
** Also, around this time, Emma Lahana (Kira) was attempting to launch a music career; her self-penned music was used on different occasions, as well as being available on her website. The songs "Freak You Out" & "Patiently" in particular, were rather catchy.
* [[Evil Is Sexy]]: Elsa.
* [[Fan Nickname]]: While (arguably) considered canon, [[One-Scene Wonder|"Mr. O'Shaughnessy"]] from ''Lost and Found in Translation'' has become the Western fan nickname for an actor who's appeared in several [[Super Sentai]] and [[Kamen Rider]] in varying durations (the Coal Org in ''Gaoranger'', the takoyaki chieftain in [[Kamen Rider Blade]], etc.) [[Actor Allusion|Usually he's either a chef or a customer.]]
* [[Fan -Preferred Couple]]: Kira/Conner and Kira/Tommy are more liked than Kira/Trent
* [[Fan Wank]]: How Tommy got that PhD in archaeology in the first place. A theory goes that when he had his brain scrambled by Prince Gasket in ''[[Power Rangers ZEOZeo]]'', he gained the ability to detect temporal anomalies and (briefly) see into the future. Thus, the ability to see the future also allows him to see the past, giving him near-perfect historical knowledge as well as just generally boosting his intelligence.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: Tommy's morpher this season is a two-piece device that requires him to insert a key into a wrist brace. This is the same setup as in ''[[Gosei Sentai Dairanger]]'', which only got one of the six Ranger suits in ''[[Power Rangers]]''. Guess who wore that suit?
** It's also the same setup for the Turbo Morphers.
** In "Fighting Spirit", three Rangers, one red, another white, the other green, gave their powers to someone in a near-death experience. The same thing happens to [[Sixth Ranger|Gai]] in ''[[Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger (TV)|Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger]]''. Bonus points for the Green Ranger being the same one in Gokaiger.
*** And the White Ranger in the ''Gokaiger'' scene is the one from the Sentai for this series.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]:
** Conner's excessive powerups, Tommy's obsession with sacrificing zords and status as [[Memetic Badass]].
** The Funky Fisherman telling his interns to [[You! Get Me Coffee!|get him his coffee and giving them five seconds to do it]]
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: Mesogog, plain and simple. Possibly the mostscariest evil being since Lord Zedd.
** He's actually ''worse'', because Lord Zedd still had some sense of humor to him that made him seem more [[Evilly Affable]]. Not with this guy, AT ALL!
*** He [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades this]] in "Back In Black" after a captured Tommy fires off another badass snark: "There's that wit again. If I had a sense of humor, I might actually appreciate it."
Line 25:
*** Not. Raised. ONCE.
** The fact Mesogog's suit looks ''extremely'' realistic, complete with a working mouth with internal details, makes him all the more terrifying.
** Some spoonful of [[Fridge Horror]] about what he did to Lothor:
Mesogog: (after turning Lothor into a [[And I Must Scream|doll of himself in a jar]] so collectable...
** Some of {{spoiler|Anton's}} transformations into Mesogog.
