First incarnation of PR to only have one female ranger.

The second season to feature two siblings as fellow Power Rangers.

The first Power Rangers season since Power Rangers Turbo (1997) to not feature rangers returning from the previous season (Adam and Justin from Turbo returned during Power Rangers in Space (1998), and Power Rangers Lost Galaxy (1999) started the team-up tradition).

This is the second season to feature a villain that is related to at least one of the main characters.

Very early materials suggested that the rivalry between the Wind and Thunder Rangers was supposed to play out a lot longer than it did (and possibly be the central conflict of the series, rather than a traditional villain), with kids even being encouraged to pick sides for themselves.

The series originally involved Tommy running a Power Ranger Academy and acting as mentor to the new Rangers. The Phantom Ranger would lead a rival faction, causing a civil war. There would be reappearances from various previous Rangers, villains such as Scorpina and allies like Ninjor. This was quashed when the show moved to New Zealand and the production crew changed. Although there are other reports that it was Jason who opposed Tommy instead of the Phantom Ranger instead, according to the head writer for Wild Force: Amit Bhaumik.

Because the show is directed at the U.S. market and most of the cast are either Australians or New Zealanders, the actors adopt American accents to cover their native ones.

New Zealand, the country where this series is being filmed, hasn't aired any Power Rangers series on television since the original in 1994, due to "violence" concerns.

In the episode 24 Tongue and Cheek, Kapri and Marsh are checking their space mail and get a letter from the planet Triforia and mention that the guys are 3 times cuter there. This is a reference to Power Rangers Zeo (1996) and Trey the original gold ranger

Cam is one of the only green rangers in the entire franchise who isn't a comic relief character, unless you count his snark.

Shane's older brother is played by Pua Magasiva's brother, Robbie.

This was the very first Power Rangers series to air on ABC instead of Fox, after Disney's acquisition of Fox Family (now ABC Family) - which included Saban Entertainment (now BVS) and the Power Rangers franchise - from News Corporation and Haim Saban. Though, ABC aired season two of Power Rangers Wild Force (2002) after its previous season on Fox.

Hunter is the older brother to Blake, Rodrigo Vargas Jr. who played Blake is three years older than Adam Tuominen who played Hunter in real life.

Emma Lahana auditioned for Tori, she would appear as Kira in Power Rangers DinoThunder (2004) a year later.

A crossover with Power Rangers Wild Force (2002) was planned as stated in an interview by producer Jackie Marchand, but due to production relocating to New Zealand and that it would be too expensive to bring in the cast, it was scrapped.

The first Power Rangers series to feature a female blue ranger.

The first Power Rangers series to feature a human male yellow ranger. The first non human male yellow Ranger was Tideus of the Alien Rangers from the third season of the first series. Whenever a Super Sentai show is adapted for a Power Rangers series, the yellow ranger is often depicted as a woman.

Doug Sloan has said more than once that Tori's scepticism in the premiere was meant to be taken as just that and never as an indication of a continuity reboot.

For the ninth PR series Ninja Storm (based the Super Sentai counterpart Hurricanger). The PR crew more/less made to move from the U.S. to New Zealand to shoot the PR. This is also the very first PR series to be produced entirely by Walt Disney which acquired the Family Channel and PR was part of the deal.

In this series Shane Clark, Tori Hanson, and Dustin Brooks are students at the Wind Ninja Academy. However they tend to be slackers and their Sensei Kanoi Watanabe chastise them for their lack of commitment. However when an old student named Lothor return to enact his vengeance on Earth he kidnaps the students of the Wind Academy as well as other ninja schools. In process he turns Kanoi into a guinea pig

Shane, Tori, and Dustin miss the action are the only ones left, and because of that they have given Power Morphers to become the Wind Power Rangers. They are assisted by Kanoi's son Cameron who is not happy but the arrangement but still does his job well at Ninja Operations. However Lothor recruits two students from the Thunder Academy when he sees they were given to ability to become Power Rangers themselves. He tells them that Kanoi murdered their parents but so learn it's was a lie and eventually the Thunder Rangers side with the Wind Rangers in the fight against Lothor.

Cam wanting a piece of the action and to not just sitting on the sidelines goes back in time to retrieve a pendent that vanished years ago. He sees his parents in their younger years as well Kanoi's brother Kya. Cam eventually discovers that Kya would become Lothor. He also understands why his father held him back from learning the ways of the Ninja. Cam was to become the Green Samurai Ranger and does get a chance to fight with the rest of the rangers as well provide any weapons as need be.

The first weeks of Ninja Storm are good as the team was being put together. Lots of cliffhangers which make you come back to see what happens. Sadly when the team finally is completed their is a lack of story arc for a few weeks until the Lothor's Generals come into play. If their were more story arc's like their were in Wild Force then Ninja Storm could have done better than the previous PR series.

Lothor meanwhile has been made into a Dr. Evil type while some of the Generals that serve him have a darker bend. Lothor's nieces Kapri and Marah also provide the comic relief but have their moments of darkness and redemption at the very end. The heroes were great but they had to make Dustin the clown of Rangers. However he does shine with the rest at the end. Kanoi unlike Zordon is quick to discipline when the Rangers (and even Cam) get out of line, and it was seen several times during the show. That does not make Zordon bad, but Kanoi is not afraid to put his foot (or his GP body form) down. Also the creation of holographic Hip-Hop personality of Cam was a waste of time since he was not used as many hoped we would have been.

Ninja Storm was good but could have been better.

The plot line of this Power Ranger series is very good. Ninja Schools from all over the world have been destroyed by a former ninja student named Lothor who after being cast off the planet for turning to evil. Lothor has kidnapped ninja students from all over the world and has turned his former sensei literary into a Guinea Pig. The only hope that the sensei Guinea Pig and his son Cam have are three slacker students of their own ninja school. They now have now have the powers of the Wind Power Rangers and their true potential is now put to the test for they hold the fate of the world in their hands.

This series is somewhat of a take off of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I say cause of the personalities of the Wind Rangers and that their mentor who is an animal and looks cartoonish but the personality is very wise (not to mention the Rangers mistake him for a rat in the first episode). PR Ninja Storm also mirrors the original Mighty Morpin series in several ways.

First the Wind Rangers must shout out a command in order to morph. In MMPR the Rangers called out the name of their Dinosaur or prehistoric animal to change into Ranger form. Here they must shout out "Ninja Storm Ranger Form" in order to morph. Other Power Ranger series had a shout out before the Rangers morphed, but it was window dressing sort of speak. "MMPR had a mentor who was bound in a cylinder (Zordon) and a robotic helper (Alpha 5). Ninja storm has a mentor who is bound by an animal form but helped by his son who is a techno wiz so you have the same concept but done differently. Alpha 5 was skeptical at times of the Rangers but Zordon had faith. Cam is the same way but his dad believes in the Wind Rangers, and he might have expelled them from his school had this crisis not come up. So far only two episodes have aired and the rival Thunder Rangers are suppose to show up in episode 3.

With the way Power Rangers follows the Super Sentai counterpart by changing it every year, expect development of all the characters and maybe some key revelations about some of them incorporated into the storyline. Allready Grant McFarland is pulling a dual role of the voice the senei GP and Lothor. Could it be that they are related? Hopful their will be a all compsing storyline and a great climax at the end of this PR series. It shows some promice.

if u have watched this program, I'm pretty sure it was this episode, i was the surfer in the background who if you looked close enough i accidentally changed clothes without permission! i got totally blown up for that lol! it was fun working on this though. whats better than sitting on a beach ALL day, basking in the sun and getting paid for it?? i fully enjoyed my time on here. Great Times :) it was filmed at many beaches in Auckland and were days ill never forget. I'm another episode. the scene was I'm a café and i was the skater punk that walks in. i was out the back, behind the scenes, with all the real actors. MAN! that was great. one guy now plays Vinnie on NZ's shortland street. he is the man! shot bro

I was babysitting my cousin one day and he was watching this show.I watched it with him and both laughed out loud and was captivated by the beauty of the blue ranger who I later found out is named Sally Martin.It was this episode that rekindled my love affair with the power rangers and I watched every episode of this series.Sally Martin just got more and more beautiful.I also liked how it poked fun at the predictability and hammienss of all previous power ranger shows.Like when Lothor commands his monster to grow in one episode he stares at the camera and says: "Well what did you expect,I'm not going to make him smaller." Sheer genius.And the Thunder Rangers kicked ass!I also started watching other Ranger shows I previously stopped at Turbo and am now quite enthralled in reruns of Time Force

I think this is a great show on ABC Family. The directors outdid themselves. This an excellent show to watch this summer. It shows true friendship and how to work together as a team and succeed. All the characters have a unique way of expressing their feelings. They sometimes get ticked off at each other but they still use teamwork.

Even though I've been watch Power Rangers as a kid, being older, I think this one is one-of-a-kind.It has different story lines and is not following the old shows of this series. Starting off with 3 wind rangers and then joining forces with 2 thunder rangers is different and to me, it's making history.

I want to say more about this but I'll shorten it. I love the show and I wish someday I could play a ranger in the series. I give it an A plus. They should make a movie out of it.

Ninja Storm, Ranger Form! Ha!





An incredible series was launched early this year, Power Rangers Ninja Storm, a fresh and bold new taste to the 11 year old Power Rangers multi-billion dollar franchise. This show is one of the best Ranger shows yet, I`ve been a fan of the Ranger series as a whole since 93 and this series doesn't change my opinion...it strengthens it. Power Rangers has had two styles of story telling, the fun and action style and the exciting adventure style. While series like MMPR and Power Rangers Turbo were of the fun and action, much of the fandom has said they prefer the exciting adventure style of Power Rangers In Space, Lost Galaxy and Time Force.

Ninja Storm is a mix of all the above, chunking out great action and story telling all at once, with the fun of the original MMPR and the excitement of the newer incarnations.

It`s not without it`s faults though, PRNS early on suffered from puns and quips that a lot of people did not care for. But the one thing PRNS has is that any thing good out weighs the bad in this series, theres acting of the likes other Saturday morning shows could only WISH they could have. These actors are by far some of the most gifted actors to dawn the ranger mantle. Glenn McMillian is a ten year acting vet and he`s not even 20 yet, goodness. The villains in this series are funny and devious. Some of the cast in this Ranger series are alumni of Xena Warrior Princess[ Katrina Browne and Grant McFarland]

All in all I`d give PRNS an eight out of ten so far.

Every episode is entertaining, and in the end that is what really matters.

In the latest incarnation of the popular series three rebellious students Shane, Tori, and Dustin are the last ones remaining at their ninja academy after the evil alien Lothor attacks the Earth. With mankind on the brink of destruction, the fate of the world lies in the hands of these unlikely heroes. Their ninja master teaches them to harness ancient mystical energies that transform them into Power Rangers Ninja Storm. Shane becomes the Red Wind Ranger, Tori becomes the blue wind ranger and Dustin becomes the yellow wind ranger. in addition to Lothor the rangers have to deal with Hunter and Blake the crimson and navy thunder rangers. this is a great show but it can be a little corney at times like it's previous predecessors noting the hollow acting of Wild Force (keeping in mind that I very much enjoyed the series since I was young watching the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series) and the goofy storylines of In Space and The lost galaxy. Fans of the series including myself wait for the day when all teams of rangers, Mighty Morphin through Ninja storm unite and stop a threat that no one team can face.

ive been watching power rangers from the start, ive missed a few seasons here and there but ive just started tuning into power rangers ninja storm. this power rangers reminded me a lot of mighty morphin power rangers. its entertaining though cheezy at times but that is what makes the power rangers fun.

When I first heard about Power Rangers Ninja Storm" I was very excited. I thought it would be dark, mysterious with action packed fight scenes. However when I started watching it i soon found that this wasn't the case. PRNS was too comical for my liking, the villains were to slapstick comedy funny and the rangers themselves seemed too laid back all the time. I'm not saying the season is no good. Had i seen this as a small kid i would have loved it. It just seems the lack of darkness in the season spoils it a little. A villain with strong cynical intentions like Lord Zedd(the greatest PR villain of all time) would have been great in this carnation of the multi-coloured super heroes.

I liked Power Rangers Ninja Storm. I liked how the setting of this series, particular, took place in New Zealand, so that was interesting. The Power Rangers were really cool in this one, especially that red ranger. I liked how the yellow ranger in this one was a guy, and the funny thing is that it worked. The most interesting thing I find about this series, particular, is that the Power Rangers were just as good as those villains. They were like equal importance in this show. That's the impression I seem to have gotten.

Well, let's see here...I'm now 19 years old, and have been watching PR since I was about 9 or 8. I sould probably stop, considering that that can't be healthy for a near-adult, and Ninja-Storm might just encourage me to do so.

The reason I've been able to stand Power Rangers over the years is because it grew up and evolved at the same time as I did. While the first couple of seasons were pretty childish and devoid of anything "serious", the show later started to demonstrate it's ability to take itself a little more seriously with more developped characters and emphasis on plot rather than relying on the show's gimmicks, like fruity spandex outfits and combining giant robots. Over the years it's had some hight points (The "In Space" and "Time Force" series) and some low points ("Lightspeed Rescue" and "Turbo"), but knowing that the show had potential to be good kept me coming back each new season.

Now, "Ninja Storm" marks the first season where the production has been handed over from SABAN to DISNEY. There have been some changes, as expected, but for the most part, it doesn't seem good. Like the first few seasons of Power Rangers, this one seems to have an overall emphasis on humor and gimmicks. While in battle, the rangers won't stop chatting and making bad puns and jokes. They're actually less chatty when they're un-morphed. You'd think physical exertion of that sort would have the opposite effect on their voice boxes. Also, in the first episode where the Ninja Academy and all its students are sucked up into a vortex (or something like that) the rangers hardly seem at all worried, but rather just babble like idiots while debating whether that wicked cool explosion was a vortex or an earthquake. You know, your classmates could be DEAD, you insensitive assholes. (They're not, of course. As it is, the show is way too child-like for death.)

I could be jumping to conclusions here. The series is still young, and "In Space" had a few bad episodes at first before it got good. Still, I think I'll just move on with my life at this point and start looking into the girlfriend department. There's gotta be something better I can do with this half-hour...

Me and my older brother used to watch mighty morphin when we were little and got along. Now, my baby brother watches it and got me into it. It gives me good ideas for when I write stories. I have saw parts of Zeo, Lightspeed Rescue, Dino Thunder, Ninja Storm, and my lil bro has a TURBO movie with a wizard dude named Lerighot and some bad guy named Divatox. I also have seen SPD and Mistic Force. Ninja Storm is probably on MY Power Rangers top 3 list. LOL I think its because of the friendships, colorful characters, funny guinea pig sensei, lessons learned, Power Ranger smart remarks, and the actors used to play the rangers... easy on the eye. LOL Pretty much, all of the power rangers incarnations teach the charechteristics to be a power ranger... and a good person. POWER RANGERS keep up the good shows. PS- I think Jorgito Vargas Jr. and Adam ?(HUNTER) are really cute! :) <3 samantha r. carpenter

I grew up watching Power Rangers and no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't stay away. I'm 20 years old and this is the type of show that grabs you and won't let go and that is what happen to me. "Power Rangers: Ninja Storm" is much more entertaining to watch than the other ones were. The show may be cheezy at times, but it's not fake like the others were. Dustin, Shane, and Tori do things that we would do like motocross, work at a bike shop, and fix bikes. I never saw that on the other shows. I don't know if I'll keep watching this show forever and have it among my favorites, but for right now I give it 9 stars out of 10.

It's a few days after the Power Rangers Ninja Storm finale. All who loved the show are sad to see it end. I remember how Shane, Tori, and Dustin met Hunter and Blake and made the team. I also remember when Cam was added as the sixth ranger. Those were great memories for us all to see.

Some of us may of been going "I can't wait that long for the new episode on Saturday" (I know how those people might feel. I got restless on Thursdays). As I said long ago in a recent comment, "Even though I've been watching Power Rangers as a kid, being older, I think this one is one-of-a-kind." It was a one-of-a-kind group. I hope to see a fight between Glenn McMillan (Dustin) and Jason David Frank (Tommy) be put into the Dino Thunder series.

To shorten this up, I loved the show and I wish I could play a Power Ranger in the series. Power Rangers Ninja Storm will always be remembered as the "series that made history".

Power Rangers 4ever! Power Rangers Ninja Storm 4ever!

I have taped every episode from beginning to now but i have missed a few episodes so I am waiting to tape last saturdays and todays episodes so I can have every episode instead of the ones i missed. I like this show b/c there is only 1 female Ranger and there are 5 male Rangers in the other shows there are 2 female Rangers and 4 male Rangers. this show really kicks butt.

This is the first Power Rangers since the original series to have someone who has the screen appeal that Amy Jo Johnson had. Marah portrayed by Katrina Devine just lights up the screen each time she smiles. I hope we see a lot more of her. Tori is also a hit. She has that same unassuming sexiness that Amy Jo had in the original season. She just has something special. I want to see a lot more of Marah and Tori. So far I have enjoyed the Ninja Storm. Dustin is convincingly clueless and is always good for a laugh.

This season was Disney's new experiment and it was an attempt to unite many aspects that people were looking for in a Power Rangers show. Some wanted it to be like the original Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, other wanted it to have a very deep storyline to continue the shows gradual change to an adult audience over the years ever since the shows became standalone stories, and yet others wanted an entirely new take on what they though Power Rangers should be....

What Disney ultimately produced was a show (1)that had a lot of MMPR like jokes and puns (which I personally found extremely annoying and was glad that the direction of the series from Space to Wild Force did not use them)which was both great for fans of the old shows and horrid for fans of the new shows, (2) a show that gave depth only when a multipart cycle was started, but hardly any for individual episodes, and (3) tried to appeal to as many different people as possible.

My thoughts are: The premise for the show was corny since it tried to combine crouching tiger: hidden dragon with aliens from space. Once the show was started, however, it did have interesting cycles like the Thunder Strangers, Return of Thunder, and the Samuria's Journey. The problem is that not much attention was given to individual episodes. I personally liked Lost Galaxy for its talent to have episodes not part of a story cycle that spoke an important message and Wild Force's almost continuous cycle throughout the show.

Another thing that I disliked was that Lothor turned from a villain to be respected to one that could not be taken seriously at all. This combined with the fact that Ninja Storm had no overall message made me generally rank this show low on the Power Rangers scale. Time Force's message of "I make my own destiny" was great and so was Wild Forces message about poluting the earth and the heart. Ninja Storm did not even stress the message of discipline, honor, and all that other ninja stuff.

Nuff Said.

ok, first of all i like the show and i like the action and the zordons. but i like too make something clear for a while. hope the ABC FAMILY production and DISNEY production can read this.

  • first of all i wish " zordon, alpha, ninjor and justin " would come back to help the show to be popular. the other power rangers that left off after " power rangers in space " don't have kind of sense of humor too make us laugh with the jokes.


  • second of all, the show has less time too teach us what we need to know in the future help. none of this help but in the commerical's. we need more lesson in the show and show us what it mean.


  • third of all, the show need too be on the ABCFAMILY for little bit longer than 1 year. for example : 5 years or 7 years , it's depend on the contract from the production.


  • and finally, all i got to say is that we need " zordon, alpha or ninjor " badly, how can we listen to a leader who has more history and met alot of villains in his 10 thousand years of living in a powers of the galaxy ? how can we missed a sense of humor or jokes from alpha ? how can we learn a way of the ninja from ninjor about anything ? this what i missed already and DISNEY can't do anything about it but let the fans down since they loved the show 1993.


let's hope we can try to get a attention to DISNEY or ABCFAMILY production about this, i know there is tons of kid's who realy missed " zordon, alpha, ninjor or justin " in the show. i also know that kid's want to see more improvement just than some new actor's in the show but we alos need a experiences from previous show. let's try too get a attention too let DISNEY or ABCFAMILY prodcution think about this before they destroy the " power rangers " legends or world.

does anyone know the e-mail address for DISNEY or ABCFAMILY production ?

I'm not sure why people likes this season?.

For me this season was silly and not good as wild force and time force

let's start with the good points:

the Rangers are awesome, The Megazords are not half bad, The Rock Musics during the fight scenes are great, Vexacus was the Best villain of ninja storm

Now for the Bad Points:

The CGI Guinea-Pig as a Sensei was one of the worst ideas ever, the worst villains of ninja Storm are Marah and Kapri and Choobo (there a lot worse than Vypra from Lightspeed Rescue),the CGI was awful, the comedy is forced most of the time (especially from the awful villains)

it was not bad but a bit sillier as the 1st Half of Turbo watching an episode of Ninja Strom it's almost like watching a bad episode of Rugrats

It's literally Power Rangers-lite! Disney's attempt to make a kid's show even more brighter just didn't work at all! Nice theme song though!

It's alright to watch Ninja Storm if you're a Kid but it can be a bit Hard to Watch if you're Older

The next Following seasons such as Dino Thunder,SPD,Mystic Force,Operation Overdrive,Jungle Fury,RPM,Samurai,Super Samurai,Megaforce and Super Megaforce are a lot better as the previous Seasons
