What is this? No-one has ever mentioned this? It's all Ninja turtles, Saved by the Bell and Beverly Hills 902150...but this looks like GOLD!

I remember the name, never watched it.

I did watch this one though, when I was at home from uni and my crappy Channel 5 serial killer documentary-obsessed mother was watching it. I had forgotten everything but the title, including the fact that it was narrated by Sean Pertwee:

Very much a thing that could only have come about when Power Rangers was at its peak. The timing of its release indicates more PR than Ninja Turtles (although the "classic"cartoon was still hanging on back then). The growing giant thing is more Ultraman, though.

Power Rangers, as big as it was, never did quite spawn a legion of copycats, though. Most of them came from Saban themselves - shows that usually came to an end once they ran out of footage from the Japanese shows they were repurposing. Only exception I can think of was Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad.

The Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog was the weirdest.
Saban doing a tokusatsu series without any Japanese footage, and also set in Ireland to take advantage of tax breaks, with an adult cast who all had Father Ted credits to their name. Father Billy "The Spinmaster" O'Dwyer, Fargo Boyle, Picnic Wife and Father Niall Haverty among them.

The female lead, Deirdra, Lisa Dwan is now this very serious, acclaimed theatre actress, while the male lead,Rohan -  Lochlann O'Mearain ended up in Glenroe (Ireland's Emmerdale Mk III) as a character called Hoppy Crosby.

There are still people upset they canned a second series of that just to pump more money into Power Rangers. But Saban's always done weird/questionable things.
