The Power Rangers are still on


So, I was at the gym this morning getting back to my usual state of super-buffness when I saw something on the TV that shocked me.

That's right, the frickin' Power Rangers.

I don't get it. How the hell is this show still on?

Let's go down the list. Arrested Development? Gone. Freaks and Geeks? Gone.

Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. Still here.

And talk about morphin! Remember that sequence that used to show the average-shlubs turning into superheroes and then getting into their Voltron-like vehicles?

Well, that's pretty much the majority of the show now. It's like a stretched out, demented kiddie version of the heroin slam cut from Requiem for a Dream.

How perverse is that?
