Barillian Bug Episode
Anyone remember this episode from Space? It was one of my favorite episodic stories. It reminded me of old school science fiction. The drama and expense was really. The Space Rangers really had some good character moments and it showed what a tightnit crew they were. It also was a nice introduction to just howmdeviois Darkconda could be.

Yes, this is when I knew Space was going to be a classic season. And would be a cut above what we had seen beforehand.

Re: Barillian Bug Episode
Most people who think of Space as a great season for get how the spring batch of episodes went through a clunky stretch. The finale eas big but there were some pretty crazy fillers that you wouldn't expect from Space if ypu go by its rep. The Barillian episode really helped the season finish strong. As it and all followimg episodes to the midseason finale were top notch. Leading to what was a very strong second half and making Space on of the best seasons.

Definitely one of my favorites along with Zhane's Destiny.
I remember being shocked as a kid that they went with plots like that. |
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
Its definitely was an unexpected surprise.

Re: Barillian Bug Episode
Yes! I lost interest during Turbo. I missed the finale and didn't watch the beginning of PRIS. But I happened tpw catch this episode and it got me hooked.

The scene where Cassie is scared about turning into one was great suspense.

But I also like the episode Zabitan mentioned. The actor who played the rebel leader had a great monologue. He has to be the best actor PR has ever had in a guest staring role. I suspect he had a background in theater. The drama with the rebels is also well done. Plus Darkconda is again showed as a cruel puppetmaster. I can see with Zabitan thought of the episode. The coral plot is similar to the Barrllian Bug plot. |
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
I was glad when Zhane left for awhile. I never though Zhane was a good fit. He was just too comical to be a Sixth Ranger. And really started what has been a troubling trend of weak personality Sixth Rangers. With a few exceptions like Eric Meyers mixed in.
I'll admit his backstory was good. But after that his role in the series is just pointless. His brief flirtation with Astronema doesn't even go anywhere. We only get a comedic exchange between Zhane and Andrps about it later on. |

Wow, this thread is reminds me about all the great episodes we got in PRIS. Anyone that thinks Judd Lynn isn't a good writer should go back and watch some of the episodes discussed in this thread. This season featured some of his best stuff.

Re: Barillian Bug Episode
I think it was more due to Tzachor finally running the show. After he cleaned up the mess left mid Turbo he was free to do his own thing with Space. I am sure Lynn learned a lot from Jonathon though.

Judd and Jackie are responsible for the stront writing! But Jonathon did contribute to both seasons in a big way. He really didn't get out of control until Time Force. I agree that Tzachor Era does overestimate Jonathon. Lynn may have learned some things from Tzachor. But Tzachor probably learned from Lynn. They worked together for a long time. The idea Tzachor wrote the episodes and that Lynn just was his padwaon leaner is fantasy though. |
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
Jonathon Tzachor did make plenty of contributions to Power Rangers! But his years of blindly following the Sentai is fair game for criticism.

Re: Barillian Bug Episode
It was a terrible episode. Only the episode with Zhane and the power loss was respectful of Megaranger. Out of the three mentioned here. Making Series 6 a Space Season was also dumb.

Re: Barillian Bug Episode
The episodes were good because they were original for the most part.
|
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
It was a pretty solid episode. Even if I think In Space gets a bit overrated.
|
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
It was a good introduction for Darkconda.
|
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
It sas a very well directed episode.
|
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
One of the best episodes ever! The suspense was just unbelievable!
|
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
My only complaint is how they turned into the bug way to fast for it to be realistic. But I guess I am nitpicking.
|
Re: Barillian Bug Episode
It kind of reminded me of an old sci-fi series. Because PR was a fairly low budget kid's show, they could get away with producing that type of show.
