no, seriously, this is sad

it ain't easy bein' white

The gears in their heads were causing worry that this would destroy the show, directed toward children. I was once told that I should think about not having one of my characters be Asian, in a roundabout way, because it would alienate white middle American audiences. It was racist and awful, but they were completely right.

Because people are awful.

... but on that note I think it would be harder to get away with this 15 years into the future. The early 90's were a testing ground for acceptance of gayness in the mainstream. This was also Fox, and Fox appoints the most conservative pieces of shit to run their studios that you can think of other than ABC.

One of the characters you portray in your delightful one man show?

The entertainment industry hates gays. People always point to gay characters and celebrities, but you know what? Those gay characters are played almost exclusively by straight people, and those celebrities were famous BEFORE they were out.

If you're an out gay actor, you're going to need to go into the closet if you want any work.

Tell that to Gandalf, motherfucker

Apples and oranges, you dork.

You have a favorite Power Ranger?

I do now.

If they come from California, the operative word is "completely."

Don't talk that way about the gays. Gays are not "repugnant" they are beautiful and mysterious creatures created by our father God. Surely He has a puprose for them

Well not that certain aspects of the series couldn't get any more annoying, that Justin kid they added in I think during the Turbo era(?) takes the cake.

When it came on it was impossible to avoid it. I hated it instantly but people talked about it in school. Commercials for it or the toys were everywhere. It was banned in several countries for being too violent.

It's really one of the most annoying shows ever created. As terrible as this story is, at least he didn't have to endure another season of pure swill.

ohshit somebody already did the colour thing.

I think there actually is a power rangers thing in japan that has a flamboyantly gay rainbow ranger. It might even be on poetv.

ugh, wrong thread.

that's nice

Because he's gay, see, and pink is a color associated with femininity

No because he looks really good in that pink shirt.

At what point does someone cross over from being a silly online troll to being a repugnant real-world piece of shit? Whether that line lies, I think Cena crossed it a long time ago.

*Wherever that line lies. Stupid typo.

oh come on people make him work for it at least

Just think, if they had pushed a little harder he might have killed himself. Damn, so close.

Good God you libs are uptight. Somebody had to make a pink ranger joke. The joke was right out there taunting me, shouting, "Tell Me!"
When does everything here have to be so serious? Its not like I called David Yost on the phone and told him he should have been the pink ranger.
I'm a decent person and I'm not a homophobe. I voted for the right for gays to marry in Georgia.

You sure are offending me Cena Mark!

No. The Asian ranger wore yellow. The black ranger wore black. The girl ranger (one of two females, but the one who's character was more girly) wore pink.

Billy clearly should have been the rainbow ranger.

Christ people, it was a joke. It wasn't even an offensive joke! It would even be in keeping with how the made the yellow ranger asian and the black ranger black! I know it's Cena but still.

Poorwill poorly read the comment above his.

And then I read Poorwill's comment way above. We are posting in alternate dimensions.

I am posting from the retard dimension.

pretty much yeah

wakka wakka

for you

Because in lieu of wearing a yarmulke, the Jewy Ranger had to be blue. And the red ranger had to be the leader, therefore he couldn't be a minority, so that left them with either not having the Asian ranger be yellow, or having a guy be the pink ranger, neither of which were acceptable choices.

Zordon is a racist.

Power Sombrero!

You are a "fracking" cockwart.

The Yellow Ranger is dead, you piece of shit.
