I don't know why this forum is so resistant to online streaming. It's not like kids don't watch shows on Netflix and Hulu and Youtube. A lot of kids are more likely videos and shows online than on tv nowadays. Not like the ratings on Nick are any good. You do realize that those online streaming shows has less episodes a season compared to the ones airing on TV right? And to add to it, especially with Netflix, they release all the episodes at once. That alone states a problem with the fact that PR as it stands depends heavily on the sales of toys for its budget.

YOU DO REALIZE Saban Brands/Netflix released Glitter Force in 20 episode seasons. Which more or less is what Power Rangers is getting now. So there's that. There's absolutely no reason to think that putting all the episodes of a season at once would have any impact on toy sales so again there's that. There's nothing about moving Power Rangers to online exclusive that could have it fare any worse than Nick's lets stretch out 20-22 episodes over 11 months and be sure to do just one really long break to ensure kids lose interest and the show never come back without a notable ratings drop.

We are not resistant to online only. Just this show is not the type of show that would work if it was just online only. Like I brought up online only wouldn't give us more episodes for a season heck we would get even less and take even longer to get through a series adaption. Let alone so you want to do streaming and be what drop all episodes at once. Well then folks binge it so fast.
Plus then you do have to look at other factors to. I toys and merchandise stuff as there is 4 quarters to marketing and it makes more sense to be airing new episodes over the course of the year. So parents and the kids know show is out there and help with the merch release windows and all that.
Again I don't ever expect the show to just be streaming as its main home. Same goes with ratings as rating numbers are even harder to peg for streaming shows. Vs normal TV ratings and all that. And honestly like I brought up earlier same with a move to discovery or universal kids. Streaming online won't make numbers magically go higher. As with regular TV folks are not always watching live, not every one uses x stream service. Then let alone folks who illegally dl shows. Then what about international viewers. As each streaming service has different licensing deals per different countries.
The show is more then likely going to stay on regular tv. And as we know right now. Nothing is going to change until season 29 the earliest. As we have current deal with nick. Hell I wouldn't be surprise if has brought just stays with nick Vs moving to another network. Again with hasbro having dealings with a lot of other companies. Plus pull with owners of nick. Maybe we can see changes there Vs the need to move.
Also another factor you think 5 month mid break is bad for the show. Which it is and is a factor with ratings. You want to do streaming and dump all episodes at once. And then we are sitting 10 to 12 months or more with no new episodes. I rather stay regular tv and have episodes airing year round.

It all makes sense. What you guys were saying. Streaming the seasons alone won't be enough. And now that Hasbro owns Power Rangers they can change how many episodes it would have instead of the whole two year season split thing like it was with Samurai, Super Samurai and such. That's why Saban sold Power Rangers over to Hasbro. I'm thinking he wanted to save the franchise what with the whole Bandai and Toysrus ordeal that's been going on.

Yes your right that nick controls how many episodes and how they are aired. But like I said with all the pull hasbro has over say Saban has. Plus they partners with paramount on stuff who own nick. Maybe hasbro can convince nick or future network if it was to move to another TV network down the road. To go back more to the fox kids/Disney format. Of 1 series over 1 year and 32 to 40 episodes. Again it's not that impossible. And like I said before nick has aired shows that where not nick made shows that have had more episodes then the nick produced shows/current nick format.
Again power Rangers should have never been changed to fit nick format. As it should have been it's own fornat. Honestly I still don't see why nick every changed it. As I said countless times with power Rangers nick has a show can be aired year round with new episodes all the time. Even with a normal short mid break. Due to the part way show is shot all in advance of season airing. And all that. I really would like to know which yahoo I'm charge went with 20 episode mandate and taking 1 year worth of 40 episodes and making it 2 years.

The one thing I am really hoping that Hasbro will do is at least put in more restrictions on the international airings to prevent international spoilers from getting out months before the episodes even air here in the US.

I was saying that too ice. If hasbro takes Control of international distribution for show. Baring of course what ever deal Mar Vista has had with Saban. And if hasbro takes it over. I too hope either it be like BBC and BBC America is with doctor who. And they are aired same time/same day. Or we if we get back to schedule way we had before with no long mid break. To either have it not start internationally to we are half way done. Or go back to how it was before and it's aired after us is over. Or at the very most not have them blow through season in a month.

I hope that Hasbro will do a better job than Neo-Saban did with Power Rangers.

Quite simply, no they can’t. Nick dictates the amount of episodes per season not Saban or Hasbro. Well I had it as a theory. I guess in three years will know if Power Rangers is still on Nick. I'm sure they will. I mean Hasbro's been around for years. And they always come up with new shows and ideas. I think Power Rangers is in good hands.

Ya I doubt much will change besides of course hopefully better casting and story for season. And less try to be mmpr again. Same goes with theme song. Then of course I hope production and costs get more money. As we know low end going by Disney and neo Saban for a whole series they are roughly dropping 20 to 25 mill a series. Right around how much hasbro spent for toy license mind you. And if you broke that down by episode be around 500 to 700k. If we could get budget per episodes up around 1 to 3 mill that Def would give us more money to work on things.
Same goes will they after next 3 seasons want to move to another network. Will they just stay with nick as its a good deal for them. And like I said maybe hasbro could get more pull to change schedule and all that. Same goes would they keep production after beast in nz. Or bring it to Canada or back to the states. Again maybe questions we have for hasbro, let alone the next show itself.

Which makes me wonder. After the Go Busters adaptation, I wonder which sentai they'll use next, Zyuohger or Kyuranger. I'm not sure if they'll consider ToQuger (what with the megazord, the color switching, imagination aspect and the rangers themselves becoming kids quite a bit). Considering they were gonna do Go Busters six years ago but never did. And now six years later here we are with Beast Morphers.

Nothing's off the table at this point, (except maybe going back to 90s sentai) so ToQger is a possibility.

Do you think now that Hasbro owns the franchise of Power Rangers we can get like an animated series for past sentai in a similar style of the transformers series? I would love to see a Liveman or Sun Vulcan animated series

^Only if and that is a really big IF on whether or not Toei will approve of that.
