The Best Power Ranger Series ever!, 2 April 2002
Author: wesjordao557 from Woodbridge, Ontario

This has got to be the best Power Rangers series ever. It's the most serious, great stories, great characters for the bad and good, and it's the most exciting. The only problem is, the acting isn't that great, but none of the Power Rangers series has great acting. Only very few actors like Jason Faunt, Erin Cahill, Edward Albert (Probably the best out of all the actors), Christopher Khayman Lee, and Amy Jo Johnson. This series is worth watching for everyone who is not a Power Rangers fan, and everyone who is.

Time For Time Force!, 8 December 2003
Author: Ryojin20 from Scottsdale, AZ

When Mighty Morphing Power Rangers debuted I was a huge fan and never missed an episode of that and Zeo. But then came Power Rangers Turbo and the kid who ruined it, Justin, and I stopped watching. Gladly it ended. I watched some episodes of In Space, Lost Galaxy, and Lightspeed Rescue, but then when Time Force debuted when I was 16, I started watching it and became a fan again, even though I'm 19 now but age in this case is just a number! Time Force a.k.a Murai Sentai Timeranger is the best in the Power Ranger/Sentai series. It has it everything: great fight scenes, powerful drama, great storyline, memorable characters. What made Time Force great was that it was darker than the other series. Especially when Ransik's past is revealed, who by the way is one of the best villains since Lord Zedd. The rangers were amazing as well: Wes the Red Ranger (Jason Faunt) developed over the series from a spoiled rich guy to a dedicated and hard working man and skilled fighter, Jen the Pink Ranger (Erin Cahill) was both a tough, focused ranger and a beautiful caring woman and the romantic relationship between her and Wes was great and was a reminder of the relationship between Kimberly and Tommy in Mighty Morphin. Trip the Green Ranger (Kevin Kleinberg) was funny, naive but loyal to the Time Force and a great fighter as well, Lucas the Blue Ranger (Michael Copon) was a cool and laid back ladies' man, but was also a dedicated ranger, Katie the Yellow Ranger (Deborah Estelle Phillips) was cute, funny, and sometimes bubbly and possessed great super strength, and Eric the Quantum Ranger (Dan Southworth) was an awesome 6th ranger and a total bad-ass! Circuit was an awesome ally to the rangers. Not only were there great heroes, there were great villains: Ransik (Vernon Wells) was a tortured soul and a very dangerous adversary, Nadria (Kate Sheldon) was funny, obnoxious, yet violently psychotic when in battle. And Frax was one of the most memorable and tragic villains. Koichi Sakamoto and Alpha Stunts did a amazing job choreographing the fight scenes. Time Force had some elements of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Once Upon a Time In China", and "The Matrix". Time Force took the Power Rangers series to a whole new level.

Power Rangers with a little touch of Matrix & Time Machine..., 17 February 2001
Author: pinoyartist99 from California, USA

Criminals from the year 3000 has come to take over 2001. Four Officers from the Time Force Police has tracked down the Time Criminals to stop them in their tracks. But, first need to recruit a new red ranger. Wes, the individual they recruit looks much like their friend, Alex, the leader of the team in the future. With the help of Wes, the Time Force Ranger will now have to fight Ransik and his gang of futuristic criminals. Many of the fights in the show parallaxes with the movie, The Matrix (you know that slow motion camera turning thingy where they dodge bullets and all that junk, which is kind of creepy). Power Rangers Time Force is based on the Japanese Sentai (Task Force) Series, "Merai Sentai Timerangers," which ended its season run late last year. In Japan, they already have a new Ranger-like show called 100 Beast Gaoranger (don't know the Japanese title, which I will guess that Saban has plans on redoing in 2002).

*Take note after the corniness of the first four seasons of the Power Ranger series, Saban has finally decided to base some (but not much) of the American Power Ranger plotline on its Japanese Sentai counterparts (in which, Japan shows somewhat more corniness in their Sentai series more than their American counterparts).

Great to come back to after a 6 year gap, 28 January 2007
Author: Iron-Man24 from United States

I was a fan of the original rangers back in the day. Like most I'm sure I was awed by the zords, and Tommy's kick ass demeanor. I watched from season 1 up to the end of lost galaxy, then I drifted away. I think I caught a few episodes of Lightspeed Rescue, because I remember the red ranger of that generation. But primarily, this is when I started watching a lot of prime time, CSI and 24 to name a few. Then the other day I caught the last 3 mins of the finale of Lightspeed Rescue on toon Disney. The following "Power Rangers Generations" episode was the season premier of Time Force, and instantly I was 10 again, and learned there is no price on nostalgia. While what a person looks at as good when they age changes,(zords are cool as kids, story is more important when older)one still can't help but be in awe. This season had something the subsequent seasons after Mighty Morphin didn't have. Now while I remember seeing a few of these episodes, more so just because I recognized the Red and Pink rangers, and how the series premier part 1 ends, it is fun to watch these again and remember what it was like to be young and easily entertained for 30 mins. All in all this is a good season, and I like many having learned the ending accept that it was a very good ending to a PR series, I still wish that it would have been a bit different. When you see it,I'm sure you will agree.

Time Force very different from other previous PR shows, 7 October 2006
6/10
Author: storm12-1 from United States

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

After seeing much of PRTF, it seems to be a bit different to the previous ranger series. At first, it seemed to be that Jen would be leader of the rangers. Later, she is still is pretty much the leader, but not the red ranger. The rangers, in particular, aren't all that bad, though Wes(red ranger), Jen(pink), and Eric(Quantum Red) started to get much of the attention towards the end of the season. The villain, Ransik, is very different compared to other villains of the past. Really, he isn't evil, just misunderstood. Also, Nadria, who is Ransik's daughter, gives us a preview of Marah and Kapri in Ninja Storm. Overall, this series was very different, but OK.

Great Season!, 21 June 2006
9/10
Author: kaypotter from United States

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

I loved this series! I grew up watching mighty morphin series when I was really young, but looking back on them, they weren't as exciting as Time Force. I also watched Lost Galaxy and Lightspeed Rescue, but their story lines don't stick in my mind as much as Time Force did. I loved the whole story of Time Force. The characters were all great. The acting was also a lot better than previous seasons. My favorite was Jen, and I loved how she began tough but later opened up to the others (especially Wes). I also liked how Wes began as a spoiled rich kid, but showed that he was loyal to his friends. The rangers all seemed to be great friends and the awkward moments between Wes and Jen when they developed feelings for each other were cute and funny. The ending was very sad when she and the others had to go back to the year 3000, leaving Wes behind. This series taught a lot about friendship, and bravery and touched on topics such as revenge, and death, and making your own destiny which made the story more interesting. In my opinion, Time Force was the best season of Power Rangers, and I am disappointed that it is over.

Time Force is the best PR series!!!, 12 May 2004
Author: dreamlanzer from USA

I fell out of watching PR because of the corniness and kiddy-like story of MMPR-Turbo. But then I saw some of the more mature seasons like Space, Lost Galaxy, Lightspeed Rescue, Wild Force and Time Force, it then brought be back into PR again because it had serious and mature storyline and plot. However, TF is the most mature and story driven season. The drama is real and terrific. The characters have a lot of depth and personalities. The chemistry between the characters are more real and special than some of the other seasons tried to be. The themes of friendship, father to son relation, love triangles, race, discrimination, law and order, are all present and was all executed nicely in this series. But it is not to say that Time Force didn't have any humor. On the contrary it had great humor and not over the top circus ones like the early seasons with Bulk and Skull. Humor is more funny for a serious story and characters than if the story and characters are funny and goofy already.

Thanks God! we see some young guys in action, 15 September 2003
Author: chelnov from Pakistan

I just watched this series recently and it is very well done. What i think of this series is that, it really brought some new boys who can do some martial arts and action. For last 5-6 years there is so much trend of "Girl Power" and dozen of series and movies have been made on "Girl Power" theme which in turned made hollywood totally without a decent young action heroes who can replace the great heroes of previous two decades and this series just gave me some hope with some young guys. Also Series is very enjoyable and it's like my favorite animated show Voltron.

Watch this series if you want some entertainment.

The Best since MMPR!, 5 February 2003
Author: spoon_1983 from Sweden

No doubt about it, Time Force is clearly THE best in the franchise since Mighty Morphin Power Rangers way back in 1993! PR peaked during Space but dropped alot during Lost Galaxy and Lightspeed. But I would consider TF to be a comback for the show. It's not perfect acting, but probably the best ever in the show. The plots are good, and quite a bit of humor aswell!

I only saw the first 2 seasons or MMPR, and started to watch TF in 2002. Now that I've seen much of all the seasons, I can only say none have been as good as Time Force. It's much more mature now than the show used to be. So even if you aren't a PR fan, this might be worth watching. Surly Power Rangers can't be considerd a really good show, but it's fun to watch.
