Like for the past 20 odd years, Super Sentai and Kyoryuger are bot airing this week because of golf. Golf also interrupted Power Rangers back in days of ABC. Anyway, check out my Hope of the Universe page for new updates from the facebook page. Check out my blog this week (maybe Wednesday) for updates from the Licensing Expo. I was going to go but family and money things came about. Fury Diamond will be there.

Golf's not the only thing interrupting Power Rangers now. You gotta understand that this show doesn't fit ANY networks' scheduling practices this time, as opposed to back then (Fox Kids/Family, ABC Family).

And with the low ratings Megaforce (and previously Samurai/Super Samurai) keeps getting, I doubt we'll see the later episodes of Megaforce or even Super Megaforce, but the networks just don't care. I don't see Saban shopping it to other networks, either. Let's face it, Nickelodeon, Nicktoons (which used to do PR well with Morphenomenons, Power Plays, and more recently, Colors of Courage), and Vortexx on The CW don't want to celebrate Power Rangers' 20th anniversary (or any anniversary of Power Rangers, for that matter), as opposed to Power Rangers' true partners (Bandai (of course), Shout!, Lionsgate (which has now announced Megaforce DVDs, Netflix, Hulu, Kabillion, etc.).
