Line 10:
**** By "evil of their own free will", I think the second poster meant a group like the [[Psycho Rangers]]. Granted, the [[Psycho Rangers]] (as I recall) werent mentioned much in the [[Clip Show]], so it would be plausible the Rangers forgot about them. Though that would be ridiculous, considering Psycho Pink ''killed'' the first Galaxy Pink Ranger ([[Unexplained Recovery|She got better]], thankfully), but still.
* On a more technical note, why is the first episode called "Day of the Dino", when it technically spans over two days? Shouldn't it be called Days of the Dino, or which day is it specifically addressing as that day of the dino?
** Its a [[Shout -Out]] to the very first episode, "Day of the Dumpster".
* Let's see, Evil White Ranger... nope, can't do anything, let's kill him! REALLY, Tommy? And WHO was evil THREE FREAKING TIMES? Seriously, this takes Out of Character to whole new levels...
** He does soften his stance after Trent's [[Heel Face Turn]], and even tells Conner that they can't just [[Never Say "Die"|destroy]] the brainwashed Wind Rangers during the ''Ninja Storm'' teamup.
* During the "Fighting Spirit" episode, Tommy has a [[Battle in Thethe Center of Thethe Mind]] against his [[Power Rangers ZEOZeo|former]] [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|Ranger]] forms. However, there's one glaring problem: Tommy was, for the first half (or less) of the season, [[Power Rangers Turbo|the Red Turbo Ranger]], but he (Tommy) never fought it (his Turbo form). Why? Sure, his Dino Gem was split into three pieces and not four, but that could've been changed. This is exceptionally confusing when, during the [[Clip Show]], Tommy was, in fact, shown as the first Red Turbo Ranger. So, again, what gives?
** Off screen reasons? Probably due to being limited to a 20 minute time slot. The red, white and green rangers already had fairly short fights in the episode, throwing a fourth one in would have made their fights even shorter. Not to mention that three rangers allows them to tie it into a three act structure. Secondly, they probably felt that two red rangers was probably a little redundant. Third, they already had trouble acquiring the three suits for this episode, getting a fourth one would have been more trouble and cost more money. Fourth, of all the rangers powers Tommy has had, the red Turbo powers are the least iconic, largely because he was in Turbo for a relatively short period of time, so if any power had to be dropped, that one made the most sense. As for an onscreen reason, the most generally accepted theory is that having passed the red Turbo powers on to another person, Tommy no longer feels the burden of those powers.
* Why was the Valkasaurus Megazord only used once and then never mentioned again? It was stronger than the Triceramax Megazord, for Zordon's sake! Plus, combining all the Zords (thus, giving a reason to have the core Rangers and the [[Sixth Ranger]] in one huge cockpit) became a staple for later seasons (except [[Power Rangers Mystic Force|Mystic Force]]), so, what the hell?
Line 46:
** Yes, it is impossible for the gems to have that much power anyway so them running out of power (unless they were directly converting mass into energy but it doesn't) immediately after that stunt is extremely improbable, and you can ask the audience to believe the impossible, but not the improbable.
* Apparently, this ending was a heavy case of [[Executive Meddling]], making much of it as (that's right) a [[Stupid Sacrifice]].
* Also, the sacrificing the Zords thing was due to the original Japanese footage having the [[Big Bad]] pull a [[Taking You Withwith Me]]. Why they just didn't do that again also falls in here.
