"ON THE SPOT" W/THE MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2019
- Hey guys! Join me in this on the spot documentary featuring the original cast (+ more) of FOX Kids The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!
Over the course of the entire 25th anniversary year long celebration of everything Power Rangers, I was fortunate enough to chat with the cast and reflect back on how they got their jobs, why they feel the Rangers are still so popular 26 years later, how the franchise has evolved over almost 3 decades, getting to perform their own stunts and even shopping for hard to find toys during the Christmas of 1994, plus more!
Featured in this video are actors Austin St. John, Jason David Frank, Walter Jones, David Yost, Amy Jo Johnson, Karan Ashley, Steve Cardenas and Nakia Burrise!

2 things. Black don't crack. and once you go black...

The only member of the original five who was unable to be appear in the documentary is Thuy Trang, who portrayed the original Yellow.Ranger Trini Kwan. She died in automobile accident on September 3, 2001. May she rest in peace; her character was played by Audri DuBois in the pilot episode. Show respect for Thuy Trang.
It's unfortunate, yes. She's in as many pictures as I could get her in, plus she has a spot all her own at the very end.
The Retro Rebel I’m glad you got enough pictures of Thuy Trang in the documentary. It would be disrespectful to hide or blur out pictures of her. I can’t talk about Power Rangers without mentioning her.
@@davidhill8565 If you felt disrespected then dont watch it. Make your own documentary. This documentary was her vision and in my opinion she did a awesome job.
Mike Sanchez I feel no disrespect for Thuy Trang. Who would? I can’t think of anyone who would disrespect her. I see nothing that would merit any criticism of her.
Rrspect!!! Fir Trini
I'm 30 and still watch them and buy any merchandise I can. Thanks for this video. I'm so happy you got a message from all the main cast!
Yes I still watch it with my son he is a big fan of the green ranger just like me lol brings back memories even watching the show brings back memories of when I was a kid 31 and still a fan 😎
I'm 33 and was a big part of my childhood! Loved power rangers and still do. Lots of great memories!!
grow up
Dude I'm 24 but I still love them as much as I loved them when I was a kid. Go Go power Rangers!
@@leont6813 same!!!!!
Amy Jo Johnson looks great!
Yes she does i wanna meet her
I had a chance to Skype with her a few years back before The Space Between came out. Really lovely.
❤️Amy❤️
Since i was kid always had a crush on her and still do. Im 29 now i been watching since the beginning on Fox Kids
I did once, and even though I still love her, I was slightly disappointed. She seemed distant and disconnected
This girl has a lot of potential. The professionalism she showed in interviewing the cast members and the questions that she asked blew my mind. I'm probably old enough to be her father. And even I can't do the interviews as good as she did. And a huge salute to the person who did the editing. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was explained to the fans in detail using pictures and clips.
Thank you so much, and thanks for noticing!
Power Rangers was great
i just wanna share this video because it was so good and it was kind hard to find too
I like how David Yost (Billy) became so inspirational in life especially what he went through personally behind the scenes of the show. I'll definitely take it to heart. Thank you Billy.
Him coming out of the closet in 2010 gave him plenty of new fans.
Thank you for this documentary! So many memories! R.I.P Thuy Trang 🙏🏼
Thank you for watching!
CrazyAztekX3 i didnt know that triny is aleady passed away.
@@doremifasolatido-ro7zs She passed ages ago.
Arthur Dsouza 2001
R.I.P. Thuy Trang!! Best yellow ranger of all time in my opinion!!
Agreed. She had this delicate grace about her on the show not to mention the nice sweet scenes between Trini and Billy or Trini and Zack.
Lee Vang yeah
Miss you thuy trang
Trini ( thuy trang ) will always be the best yellow ranger
She was also a very strong representative for asian culture
Zack and Kimberly still look young! This show was a hit growing up, everybody was doing karate at that time because of PR. It took me months to get a PR toy. Lol
I have been a fan since 93 and still is in 2020. I love the Power Rangers. She did an awesome job at interviewing. I am 36 years old and still love it
Karen Ashley done got Fat!!! She was SO MUCH CUTER when she was younger!!! I LOVE Amy Jo Johnson SO MUCH!!!-#MYBAE!!!...
My feelings exactly ☺️
I been watching Power Rangers since the 1st day in ‘93 and this was The best video that I ever seen. Getting the opportunity to interview the cast of Power Rangers, for me, would be a true event. You did an awesome job
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
@@TheRetroRebel You're living every fan's dream! Keep doing what you're doing!
@@swslwatts I'm just one of you :) Thank you!
I was thinking the same thing too. This was like a walk down memory lane
Yes 93 I remember the preview for the summer, before it aired in the fall. I was amazed
Amy Jo (Kimberly) Karan Ashley (Aisha) and Nakia (Tanya) are still beautiful til this day.
R.I.P. Thuy Trang (Trini)
Karen Ashley is the sweetest
This Kid is awesome at interviewing, got a nice energy about her. She's gonna go far.
Well done Kid👍🏿
Thank you!
Agree
Love how the actors of Kimberly and Zack have hardly changed! Guess legends are immortal huh? 😉
NeuSince 92 yeah
That compliment from JDF means so much more now that we just lost him. Great job on this interview!
I was never a Tommy fan, but I love how motivational and positive JDF was about having a purpose and a passion. And good job with the questions Retro Rebel! MMPR meant a lot to me as a kid. I'm so jealous you got to interview the original cast.
I like a green/white ranger. But not sure bout tommy/jdf himself.
@@RonLarhzwhy not jdf himself
Walter Jones last few answers was on point especially the wisdom from his mom
It's amazing how they all look the same and sound the same. RIP Yellow Ranger 🙏❤️
(Some) Asians as (some) Blacks age very slowly. I bet Thuy would have looked fantastic for her age.
@@Angelotube5000 I most definitely agree
@@Angelotube5000 Yep!
Zack/Walter is either a Time Lord or a time traveler from the 90's.
Like Keanu Reeves.
Zack is the personification of "black don't crack" 😂
It's that cocoa butter and positivity XD
Yup
And Keanu Reeves.
No I think Nokia (Tanya) is black don't crack
@@frederickjones9017 Nakia you mean??? Lol Nokia is a cellphone
Amy Jo Johnson actually showed up! WoW!
She was very willing to talk, Tampa Bay Comic Con wasn't wanting her to... but I have ways, lol!
Ya, a lot of people think that she doesn't fully embrace the Power Ranger fandom or just doesn't like being remembered for Power Rangers like her co-stars do
@@TheRetroRebel how come Tampa Bay didn't want her to talk?
I got the pleasure to be Guest Lancer for David Yost when he came to Jacksonville. One of the kindest person I've ever met. We talked throughout the entire day. At the end he even gave me a signed picture for my son and I couldnt be more thankful.
My goodness they're all so cool!! David Yost's Affirmative card made my day!!! They were what made the show amazing . . they set it apart and made even the non action scenes the most fun i could have had as a kid.
How has zack the only member that hasn't aged at all!? The looks great! This show was our Avengers back in the day.
Cause he black yo!
@@DivinityIsPurity Black don't crack
Coco butter
idk man, Kim still looks great :)
Black don't crack. We got the best genetics.
I've been a fan of Power Rangers since the very beginning as a kid. Today, I'm still a fan. I still watch Power Rangers on TV and browse the series on TV Tropes, The official wiki and other sites. Truly, the franchise has greatly impacted everyone, young and old and the entire planet yesteryear and today and it'll continue to do so for generations to come. To the interviewer, you did an excellent job. You have a very bright future. I hope some big company will hire you. I'd support you. Great video interview. 10/10.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
“Embrace who you are, Believe in who you are, Affirm who you are.” I love David Yost’s motto and he explained it so well! Thank you for sharing this. It was nice to hear these icons speak! 🙌🏼
I’ve been watching Power Rangers interviews for a decade and this is among absolutely the best. I learned so much that I didn’t know about the actors personalities in particular, the ASJ top #5 life lessons were amazing & its impressive you also got Amy Jo & JDF. Keep up the great work, you’re headed places!
Thank you!
This gen children after our gen they won't be getting any entertainment only education
Entertainment is gone after Jetix and fox kids stop and cn old programming blocked
I remember me running home after Middle School so i wont miss the MMPR show. I got tired of running after a few weeks, so i saw them right after school in a room in my local boys club which was a block away from school. Most of the kids around me where making fun of the show, yet they always stood there to watch the episode till it end.. Lol
This made me cry. I’m 34 years old yesterday and this show has impacted my life so much
David Yost is such a sweetheart!
This kid is asking all the right questions! Amazing.
True PR spirit! Keep it up :)
Thank you!
Great video. I’m 41 years old, and still enjoying them. RIP Thuy Trang, Robert L. Manahan, and now Jadon David Frank. It’s good you met them while you can. Because you never know who will be next. We aren’t promised tomorrow, and we might find out another one passed. I am so happy for you.
That thumbnail almost made me cry 😢 especially without Thuy Trang.
in terms of who could have played who, I love how who played how in the end. Billy is my dude, Tommy is the man, Jason was cool.... Adam was my fave!
Still got Austin and JDF griping at each other while being interviewed by a 10-year-old! 🤣
Austin especially what a twat
Those guys are too much
Lmaooo exactly lol
LOL exactly heheh the shade between Jason and Austin lol
@@JoseDiaz-xh1cswhat shade
I respect the fact that all these Zordon rangers are still friends in real life. I adore that.
Lol not green and red they hate eachother
@@sliderx1897why
I'm jealous (in a good way lol) that you got to meet my childhood heroes!
JDF “I do all my stunts”
Austin “there were times when Jason couldn’t be in the suit”
lol these two aren’t good at playing down the beef rumours are they aha.
Great video btw ! Really good questions and you gave them time to answer which a lot of interviewers don’t do nowadays. Good job 👍🏼.
KBM 515 he needs to chill bro lol.
On a TV set that's often not realistic. Often there have to be two scenes being shot simultaneously. For a show like PR (especially when they filmed more episodes per season), one unit would film the main cast in unmorphed scenes, while elsewhere another unit would film the stunt actors doing a fight scene, because these episodes had strict deadlines. Scheduling is everything.
They definitely aren't fans of each other, lol. In fairness though, Jason was talking about during Power Rangers. JDF i think is talking about now. One the web series and stuff he's been on he probably does do his own stunts. :p
Exactly. That's what I noticed lol. 😆
The young lady interviewer was very clever on asking this question on these two competitors. They're both a little arrogant, but I love them both. Loving memories to our lovely yellow ranger may she rest in peace and will never be forgotten 🌹✌
Like Alpha told Zordon back in the day “putting those two together was a bad idea!” 😂
I've met Karan, nakia, jdf,walter, just awesome people. Great video.
Thank you!
One thing I like about the Power Rangers is that there is always a lesson that you can learn even to this day of Power Rangers you can learn a lesson like for example in Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel episode title Prepare to Fail. When the teacher Ms. Finch says " Some test are tougher than others, just like the challenges that we face in life. It is also one reason that I like Power Rangers Turbo. Tommy, Adam, Tonya, and Kat Graduated from High School so instead of giving them answers like Zordon did, Dimitria made them think. For example the Shadow Rangers episode Tommy was hoping that Dimitria would give him the answer, but instead she asked "What destroys light?" Tommy, Kat, Adam, and Tonya were about to face the real world and they needed to figure things out on their own.
JDF was a really great person and the thing l will miss about him is his caring personality R I P Tommy l will miss you so much and Thank You for everything
The OG rangers still look so good, I wish they could have a reunion episode. Not sure what's the best way to handle Trini though. Some kind of tribute would be nice.
I remember power rangers used to come on everyday about 4:30 when I came home from school
@@lenortucker5146 My best Power Rangers memory is when season 2 first aired. It aired in the evening and was called "Power Rangers Prime Time". It felt so surreal and special to watch Power Rangers during the "grown up show" hours, and it was the first time I saw a show introduce such a radical upheaval to the status quo. Plus Lord Zedd and the Thunder Zords were just so cool. It was a great time to be a kid.
Chris yup
Lenor Tucker yup
Chris yeah
Retro Rebel is absolutely adorable. Loved hearing all ASJ interview segments. He talks very uniformed but will every now and then place subtle humor in it. Great words by JDF at the end too. Also 11:10 Chris Casamassa (Red Dragon/Scorpion) in the bottom left row there and 10:21 Cast wearing everyone else's colors, Black ranger in Yellow, Red Ranger in Blue, Blue Ranger in Red...
God eye! Thank you, and thank you so much for watching!
7:55 / 25:30 Austin St. John Back In The Day!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 my first crush 😌🙏
Nakia looks amazing and exactly the same. The only difference is her hair length
No man. She looks even better than when she was on the show
@@zyuranger21 That's what I said too
My fav
definitely the hottest black woman to a yellow ranger..just to bad she was never in any other series after turbo
Deka Red yup
Thank you Retro Rebel for interviewing these legends of mine and every 90's kid childhood. They all look great, and Amy Jo Johnson looks outstanding. She was one of my 90's crushes.
That's what I'm talking about power rangers has been my favorite show ever since I was a kid. I was 11 in 1994
I was 15 when MMPR premiered on tv and loved it and ive seen every version since up to Beast Morphers. Ive seen both movies and other shows like VR troopers, Beetleborgs, and Masked Rider from Saban. Hope to see Hasbro Rangers movie. The original team will always be my favorite as it was a great escape from the world, to want to be a hero like them and ive been trying to create my own characters for over 25 years but no sucess yet or any published, but hope someday it will happen and rangers is the reason i started creating and reason i love science. I dont have a favorite Ranger, i like all of them for different reasons. Thank you to the cast for a great childhood show thats become legendary today.
I had the VR trooper Lunchbox and thermos lol dug beetleborgs as well
@@mikelane2866 i dont think many people remember those shows anymore but a movie and new series updated would be awsome.
Dean D I was 10 when it premiered.
@@plawson8577 cool. Its nice knowing that others watched the original on tv and seen it from beginning. I remember the time before anyone heard of power rangers.
I loved VR Troops and Beetleborgs! Wish they had lasted longer!!!
To echo most of the other comments, I really am astounded by your professionalism. Keep it up, you have a bright future ahead of you. And be sure to thank your dad for being such a good support for you. I don't think this would be possible without parents who care and want to support their daughter.
Thank you so much! Will do!
Blue ranger and red ranger are the most humble, awesome.
Austin St John is the personification of 'walk softly but carry a big stick'. Guy is a genuine badass but extremely humble and kind.
Austin is gonna reprise his role of Jason in a special episode of Beast Morphers
reprise*
amy jo johnson still looks amazing
This was the greatest Power Ranger (interview documentary) I've seen . It's perfect cause you were able to Interview all of the Original Cast. i'm 29 and I have and watch all the episodes. Plus I collect the merchandise.
1993 was the single best year of my childhood, and i thank power rangers for that. i was 10, in 3rd grade. i still rewatch the first few seasons every couple years.
Jason David Frank and his versatility for power rangers really stood out in my opinion.
You can tell the actors liked being interviewed by you. Full of respect, smart questions and the chance to talk about themselves and the experiences they had. Keep going with this, you have a bright future!
Thank you!
I wasn't allowed to watch the show at all when it first aired. After the first episode, my brother and I and some of the neighborhood kids decided to reenact it. Unfortunately, the fights turned a bit too real... Oops...
Even after a few years anytime it came on and I was flipping through the channels I was told to change it. Kinda sucked.
I'm 32 now with my own Netflix account, so I'm catching up on the campy nostalgia of the age and I'm enjoying every minute of it. Without the fighting, of course.
You have done an amazing job with this interview and the editing of this video is top notch. I know other people have said it, but you have a bright future ahead of you.
Fantastic interviewing of a cast I loved as a kid and a lovely tribute at the end. Subscribed, keep up the good work.
The actors looks so good after 25 years, I love this video and your pink hair 😉
Great interviews! You asked some really good questions, especially "Did you ever give yourself out as a present?" I've never heard that asked before.
That was my favorite question, lol.
Definitely some awesome interviews. Power Rangers is and will always be legendary.
You did a good job... And when I see this I just wanna say... I miss Thuy Trang...😢
one of a kind same
Good job on this video R.R.! It was good to go back down memory lane! These actors were/are phenomenal! Continue building your channel & more success will follow!
This is the greatest documentary ever keep up the phenomenal work iconic footage that you have created good job
Great interviews. Been watching a lot of Power Rangers interviews and I think I like your's the best. This was great. Good job.
Thank you so much, and thanks for watching!
My friend Dennis is the original Red Ranger stunt guy in the suit and he works with me in Kaiser he just retired recently.
Daaaaang i been missin my dude Billy!!! I wish we could've got a morphenomenal out of him tho lol
You did a truly fantastic job and love the video! You made this longtime Power Rangers fan proud!!!!!!
Thank you! Glad I could make you happy!
Kimberly pink ranger was every teenager boy fantasy in the 90s
I’m turning 36 and grew up with MMPR. I’m glad I got to see the first movie at a drive in theatre. I still think to this day the original power rangers and cast is the best. That rockin theme song is awesome too. Go go power rangers.
How cute is The Retro Rebel...I love her!!!! She is so young and asked some great questions. I loved how engaged she was with whom she was interviewing. The smile on her face, her head nods. Her interactions with the celebrities showed that she was actually listening & paying attention to their answers to her questions. She has talent. No doubt she has found her calling. This was fun to watch. You go girl!
David Yost as Billy the Blue Ranger was my favorite.
I started watching PR interviews lately and I can't stop now lol. Amazing job!! Keep up the good work. You've got talent for this
Thank you!
Omg i like watching power rangers during my childhood days... from Philippines here
Hello Manang in the Philippines! Thanks for watching!

Meeting all of them had to be awesome! I became a fan when I was 9 year old. These guys were positive influences. I'd love to tell them that.
This is the best documentary ever. THANK YOU RETRO!
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
This is the best thing I’ve seen on RUclips today - BRAVO! 🎉
Thanks for watching!
Original cast will not forgetten by kids grown up in 90s. Mmpr was first aired in my country in 1994. Jason, zack, billy,triny, and kimberly. I still remember their names in mmpr. I thank you guys of unforgettable childhood memories. And RIP jason david frank, green ranger, never forget him as bad ass ranger.
You have a real talent for this, incredible job, keep up the great work Retro Rebel! So jealous having grown up in the 90's being a die hard Power Ranger fan of the first 2 seasons.. Power Rangers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Batman, He-man were my child hood lol
Amazing video! As Jason David Frank said, keep up the great work!
Thank you! Will do!
The Retro Rebel yeah
Dang, that was so cool!
I wonder how long it will take before this explodes....
That would be nice, lol!
I guess 3 weeks! IDK what happened.
*Hides the jet thrusters strapped to the video* I have no clue how that happened, I swear!
These guys have aged well they still look fantastic...best documentary ever
Thank you!
Wow! Great interview and great interview skills! Such a young talent! Way to go, girl! Congratulations!
Thank you!
After all this years they still bringing good lessons to the new generations
This was an excellent interview. Had my doubts but she really asked some great questions
I’ve met Austin (Worked for him fo a bit), Walter, Karan, David and Steve and they are as amazing as they are in this interview.
Great job
We’re you an assistant
@@crishnaholmes7730 in a manner of speaking. I was a part of his Street Team when I was stationed in California
@@SolidSnake0621 ok how did you meet Walter
@@crishnaholmes7730 Walter was at all the conventions that I worked when I worked with Austin. Karen was at most of them and David and Steve were both at one.
@@SolidSnake0621 ok did you see the new Netflix movie
Very professional and fun interview work!!! Great job, and keep it up!! 👍🏾🏆😃
Thank you so much! I Try, lol.
Thank you for theese great interviews. It's nice to see them again👏👍
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
This was soooooo awesome . Great job !!!
Great work on this video! Content, camera work, B-roll, sound, relevant info on screen. Kudos to you and your team!
Much appreciated! Just me and dad.
I love all the original 5 cast members.Austin St.John is just an amaizing dude.
Minus the original yellow ranger. R. I. P. Thuy Trang.
At Top Con 17 I met both Catherine Sutherland and Nakia Burrise. They are even much more beautiful in person even after all these years. Both are true sweethearts. It was funny because the night before, I was at a Walgreens and there was a pretty long line, and Nakia was standing in it. I'd brought it up the next day when I saw her and she looked at Catherine and said "See!! I told you there was a long line!!!" Apparently Catherine was waiting outside in the car and wondering what was taking her so long. I asked if there were going to be any more episodes of Class Dismissed and she'd gotten excited. Two very nice girls.
JDF saw the potential of fandom/morphicon/conventions, so he invest time to strengthen the fandom, and soon after the others also saw the potential...
Jason is smart n passionate
He was also the glue. Without him, Power Rangers wouldn't be what it is today.
This was definitely awesome to interview the cast from the first few seasons of Power Rangers.... New subscriber
Thanks for watching! Thanks for joining!
This is awesome, kiddo. I've been a huge fan of Power Rangers since I was about your age. (Alien Rangers was my favorite) Keep up the good work!
Will do! Thank you!
Well I loved getting to learn about my favorite power rangers actors, I was very impressed with the editing of this video. It was amazing to watch! I loved it!
Thank you so much! My dad will enjoy the editing comment, lol.
@@TheRetroRebel I wondered if you or he did. He knows how to tell a great story. I noticed like within the first three minutes.
Great job and super brave of you to do this! I'm one of the original generation of fans (probably your parents' age if not a little bit younger;I'm 36) and I doubt I'd have the courage you did in this video to approach ANY of those OG MMPR stars. My hat goes off to you and I wish you the best with your channel here! I subbed and I'll watch you grow!! Stay awesome, Ms Retro! :)
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching! My channel will continue to grow once I can get back out there and keep going. Stay tuned!
@@TheRetroRebel I shall! :)
