This Netflix Life Article (https://netflixlife.com/2023/08/23/power-rangers-cosmic-fury-release-updates-and-everything-we-know-so-far/) has these exclusive photos showing Fern in the Morphing Pose and has her listed as the Orange Ranger.  






Also Simon Bennett posted this Behind the Scenes shot of Aiyon in a cockpit of what looks to be the cyan-colored grizzly Zord.

Here is a comparison of the Bear symbol from Kyuranger and the symbol on the Grizzly Zord cockpit for comparison.

Cosmic Fury Theme and New Info

It had to be the first day of school (I am a teacher) that they had the biggest news on Cosmic Fury, now set to premiere on September 29, 2023 internationally on Netflix. Entertainment Weekly revealed the opening theme song for the first episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqavPsG0HOk

The biggest news for fans is that David Yost will indeed be joining the team as the MM Blue Ranger and mentor. There is a shot of him piloting the wolf zord. 

Here is the main cast, with Javi's cybernetic arm. 


Jacqueline Joe (Fern) has also joined the cast. 


\Lord Zedd's footsoliders who are original to the shows and not from Kyuranger. The helmets were first shown on Simon Bennett's social media earlier. 


The villain in the center is American-created. 

Ikargen from Kyuranger seen in one shot with the other villain. 


The Tsuyoindavers were superior commanders from Kyuranger. 


The Rangers' cockpits. 

The symbols changed from Kyuranger.



Simon Bennett has revealed that Lord Zedd will set up his base on Eltar, Zordon's home planet.

Power Rangers Kid Costumes (Beast Morphers, Dino Fury)

 




 
Beast Morphers has the regular costume, deluxe costume, and the toddler ones with a face mask. Also, Red in his power-up form.
\


As for Dino Fury, there is only Red, Blue, and Pink. Also Toddler costumes for Red and Blue. That I can tell there is no black, green, or gold so far. The costumes usually show up by April or May, no costumes have shown up for Cosmic Fury yet. But they could still show up for Halloween.

Power Rangers Amounts of Episodes (1993-2023)

 The episode counts went down from each era, Saban Entertainment to Disney to Saban Brands and then to Hasbro. Each season has gone down, the Saban Brands and Hasbro seasons I am counting as one season except for Cosmic Fury because of its small episode count, the same as Aquitar.

145 Episodes - MMPR
50 Episodes - Zeo
45 Episodes - Turbo and Lost Galaxy
44 - Samurai, Dino Charge, Ninja Steel, Beast Morphers, Dino Fury
43 - In Space
42 - Megaforce (both seasons)
40 - Wild Force, Time Force, Lightspeed Rescue
38 - SPD, Dino Thunder, Ninja Storm
32 - RPM, Jungle Fury, Mystic Force, Operation Overdrive
10 - Aquitar, Cosmic Fury 


Interesting note:
Most PR seasons are shorter than the Sentai season they adapted, the most notable being Aquitar/Kakuranger and Cosmic Fury/Kyuranger. There are some seasons that have more episodes than the sentai itself, for example, MMPR season 1 had 60 episodes while Zyuranger had 59, mostly because they used Zyu2 footage. MMPR season 2 had 52 episodes while Dairanger had 50, because of Zyu2 and also the use of recycled footage and the episodes produced in Australia during the filming of the movie. Zeo had 50 episodes while Ohranger had 48, probably because they used the movie and teamup footage.

Super Sentai Amount of Episodes #2 (1975-2022)

 This is the updated version of one I did in 2011. Goranger had 84 episodes, Changeman had 55 episodes, Kakuranger had 53 episodes, and Battle Fever J had 52 episodes. There are 52 weeks in a year so it makes sense most series are 52 or less. 12 series had 51 episodes, 13 series had 50 episodes, 6 series had 49 episodes, 7 had 48 episodes, and 2 had 47 episodes. Goranger had the most, JAKQ had the least, and Changeman had the second most episodes. I think Kingohger might have 48 or 49. Here is a new chart. 

Super Sentai Pie Chart 1975-2022

52 and more - 8.9%
51 - 26.7%
50 - 28.9%
49 - 13.3%
48 - 15.6%
47 or less - 6.7%

51 Episodes: Denjiman, Dynaman, Bioman, Maskman, Turboranger, Jetman, Megaranger, Timerager, Gaoranger, Hurricanger, Lupinranger Vs Patrenger, Gokaiger
50 Episodes: Go-Busters, Zyuranger, Dairanger, Goseiger, Go-Onger, Flashman, Abaranger, Dekaranger, Sun Vulcan, Goggle V, Gingaman, GoGoV, Donbrothers
49 Episodes: Liveman, Magiranger, Boukenger, Gekiranger, Shinkenger, Zenkaiger
48 Episodes: Fiveman, Ohranger, Carranger, Kyoryuger, Ryusoulger, Zyuohger, Kyuranger
47 Episodes: Toqger, Ninninger. 
The majority of the series (13) has 50 episodes. Second is 12 series that have 51 episodes, and third is 7 series with 48 episodes.
