Two bearded bros with attitude watch and dissect their favorite super hero show where the heroes bleed sparks, ride dirt bikes, fight with the power of friendship, and always win when they bust out the giant robots. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was a phenomenon in the US in the 1990s, but the show that provides it's basis and much of it's footage, Japan's Super Sentai, is part of a beloved genre that's been going strong since the early 1950s. Together, Stephen and Pat will not only relive their childhood love of American Tokusatsu adaptations, but will explore the genre's Japanese roots and celebrate the transformative nature of American Sentai, as well as the general badassery of rubber monsters and giant mecha!
