Why It’s Worth Watching

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers pairs colorful action with a simple recurring structure about teamwork, responsibility, friendship, and using unusual abilities in service of other people. The original team works because members contribute different strengths and repeatedly have to put group responsibility ahead of ego or fear.
