Power Rangers RPM was gonna be the LAST SEASON of Power Rangers. After purchasing Marvel in 2009, they now had a superior franchise to build superheroes out of rather than the spandex team of Power Rangers. Disney was just known for their classic cartoons and princesses, but they were ready to step into the superhero game big time. So, after nearly 8 years of owning the show, they were about to end it, having the cast and crew go wild creatively. Here comes RPM, a series centered on a post-apocalyptic world focusing on the last team of Power Rangers fighting a computer virus and its minions. However, after firing the main writer of the show, the series split off into a whole new ending, different from what was intended. So, what was the original ending of Power Rangers RPM?

You know what's the weirdest episode of RPM is? The episode where Ziggy takes us behind the scenes of the show
Yeah that straight up confused me a little
one of my fav moments tho, it’s not every day the viewer goes behind the scenes !
@@hiEste but didn’t the rangers watch the behind the scenes?
@@hiEste rw:personally i rly did enjoyed it ,and most likely the ones i mostly love are the Bloopers that happen behind the scenes ^_^
@@Popoff.indigo No, they watched the movie they made of themselves battling the Attack Bot at the end.
Honestly objectively Rpm is the best acted and written power rangers series. Literally pretty much every member of cast has and is in main stream fame and success to the point that you forget they're on power rangers. The only power ranger I can actually say has had continuous main stream success like that is Brandon aka red ranger from SPD. Rpm is definitely one of the top power rangers series and helped save the franchise.
Facts
I mean saying it’s objectively the best written is going a bit far but yeah it’s up there
Crazy how they tried to end the show like 3 times and it always ended up being more successful then they anticipated
same thing happened with Sentai too. Jetman, Carranger, and Gaoranger did this too
It’s ironic when Disney tries to continue things they ruin it but when they try to finish it become successful
That whole original ending with everything about Dillon being fake would of been a huge plot twist, though it would of been the greatest ranger villain move ever
I think if they had done this “Ranger Black” ending it would of been interesting BUT too sad. And if the series had ending that way I think the majority of fans would of been ticked.
Yeah, that would be too dark for younger audience, but that the kind of plot that can works in the comics
@@ohmaplaymaker That did kinda happen in a way. In the Shattered Grid annual we had Drakkon take the place of Tommy from Zeo and observing them and at the end it's implied he kills that version of Tommy before leaving.
I do know there was some foreshadowing to this in the episode "Ghosts"
In that episode, Dr. K discovers that Dillon's memories that led the team to go to Omega City were fabricated. Indicating that he never had human memories to begin with, because he was never human.
Interestingly, "Ghosts" was the last script Eddie Guzelian wrote before he was fired.
RPM was a great season that perfectly mixed it’s more serious moments with its most self referencing and hilarious scenes in the show to date!! Such a great show, thank you for this video
I think it would’ve been a finale that would’ve given us a lot being action,drama,and heartbreak.
If they go with that ending, we might see Tenaya 7 being the first black ranger.
@@michaelsarmiento3362 don’t you mean 2nd?
@@deniseg9210 you are right.
A couple things.
Eddie has come out since his oooooold Rangerboard days and IIRC stated that neither he nor the writers under him had "finished" the RPM story when he was fired and the writing team resigned. They had ideas what they wanted to do but a final story was never fleshed out, so it's false to say "This is what was going to happen" because it was never formalized and submitted to Disney for approval, etc. He also states he wasn't fired for going over budget, he was fired for not getting scripts in on time. Apparently it got so bad that scripts were being written the same day they were shooting. And despite several SEVERAL warnings from Disney, it never got better - so they canned him and his team quit when he was fired.
Chip Lynn took over the show and there was a lot of silent angst - the cast and crew loved Eddie but Chip was cold, not-listening to them or their ideas like Eddie did, and was more of a "this is how we're doing it just do your job" type of guy. I know Jackie left when Eddie was fired and I can't remember if it was because Chip came on board or not. I know she is not a fan of Chip because when there was a writers strike during Jungle Fury, good old Chip Lynn crossed the picket line and wrote a large chunk of Jungle Fury instead of supporting some of the same crew he had worked with previously.
thanks for correcting me on these things, old forum info like that is really hard to find so i appreciate the info
wow this is incredible insight. thank you!
Any sources for the old post? Would help the fan base know how things went behind the scenes. Knowing the Chip thing, wonder how others series cast and crew feel about the guy if he’s so dismissive and adamant about things
Actually he never said he got several warnings before fired in fact they had actually agreed to a schedule that he managed to properly succeed in and had told him during it that although they did like how the delays meant the scripts would come out in better, they could not keep production going on like that for so long.
So despite him actually getting the scripts in by that schedule, he was still ultimately fired. I guess there's an argument to be made here that even though he was getting them out on time they still didn't want to risk it.
@@Xeno-The-Wanderer An archive of it exists on a site called the kidsblockblog if you look for it
Bro ending of RPM is so satisfying than the original script imagine seeing your favourite character become villan would be very dark and emotional as a kid
Well that's why he tried to appeal to older audiences. (Kinda hard though with Power Rangers' reputation as a kids show)
Chip was in an impossible situation. After the budget had been blown for the first half, he probably has no choice but to autopilot the rest of the season. Barely any Sentai footage was used for the first half. That is how PR saves money for the episode they wanna do and Eddie never did it. Chip had to save money by using more footage, having a clip show and a behind the scenes episode. Given what he had to work with, I think Chip did a great job.
If Eddie had just used more Sentai footage on the filler episodes he could have done the story he wanted without blowing the budget
I guess we'll never know until or unless the answer comes from Eddie's mouth directly but I wonder if a team-up with the Jungle Fury team is what he had in store had he stayed the whole season, but I agree with Chip being put in an impossible situation, otherwise, I'm sure "And... Action!" would not've happened. I could be mistaken but I actually thought it was, the more footage being used, the higher the production costs. But then again higher costs isn't necessarily limited to footage usage since we know Eddie resigned due to going overbudget and script delays. Also, you mentioned a clip-show. I'm sure even Eddie would've done a clip-show. I don't know about Samurai to Beast Morphers since Dino Fury is actually the first post-RPM season I've regularly watched (and still isn't over yet) but ever Ranger season (since I think Time Force) has done a clip-show episode.
That would have been a great ending. I thought Chip was the one who did all of RPM. Bring Back Eddie to write more power ranger episodes
I absolutely want PR to be only for rated 9+ only like RPM and SPD did
Would have been strange and dark. Sure Scott was the leader but Dillon was basically the main focus and character of the series. I'd argue it was helmed by both as a Deutertagonist type deal.. It would however be an insane twist if he just turns on everyone in the last hour.
Linkara had a theory that after the events of RPM and humanity started to rebuild itself, good aliens arrived to help us rebuild and became a apart of society leading to the creation of Power Rangers SPD
Linkara is such a hypocrite.
@@RetroGamingCorp why you say that
@@miraclecomics Linkara said Operation Overdrive is bad because of bad storytelling and Dax but Ninja Steel's Victor and Monty almost screwed the rangers by giving their powers to the main bad guy that wants to kill them. He defends Victor and Monty's actions but say Dax is bad. What an hypocrite he is.
@@RetroGamingCorp okay well did you inform him about that
Isnt RPM in another parallel world?
It would have been a very emotional ending, but I feel like it'd kind of ruin a lot of Dillon's development as a character. To just turn around and say "Oh, he's a bad guy now!" right at the end for the sake of drama, it just would have been cheap.
I found the funniest part where Eddie saw what he had to adapt 😂
We finally got our ending with Beast Morphers.
I'm glad we got the ending we did; I would've _hated_ that "original" ending!
It's not spandex. The material is a self-assembling nano-fibre formed with an intercellular shape memory alloy.
I can't decide, should I set Este the task of scrubbing the floor with a toothbrush or not?
RPM is one of my favorites and anytime I talk about power rangers with anyone that wasn't a fan of seen a few episodes as a kid, I tell them to watch RPM, lol Ziggy acknowledging the background explosion episode was such a great episode to ask the questions we all had
Keep up the great work 👍
If the ending actually was the official one I would’ve felt betrayed
One has to wonder if RPM ended the series would a new reboot series have happened earlier on or would Power Rangers still be on hiatus till this day.
It's a bit of a bother to me that everyone keeps saying RPM was going to be the last season... as in the last ever season of the franchise. Admittedly, I thought this too back in 2009. But now, I would think the show would've been on hiatus until Saban came back asking for the franchise back... or to buy it back. It's worth a mention that Saban, not Disney, is the original owner of the franchise and so even though it was still in Disney's hands at that point, they still didn't have the authority to permanently end a franchise they weren't the original owners of.
Think of it like a daycare being closed down for the day but there's still a child who hasn't been picked up yet. While waiting for the parent(s) they still have to watch the child until the kid gets picked up but the daycare still isn't functioning as such until the next day. This was basically Disney's situation after RPM was over.
@@hiltonlive32grnrngr Personally I'm glad it didn't end with that season. There' been a few good ones since then like Dino Charge, Beast Morphers and Dino Fury.
This series was definitely darker than most Power Rangers episodes, which I kinda liked it. I wish we would’ve gotten the original ending idea for the series bc that would’ve fit the tone of the series. It’s a shame we didn’t get it.
I really like that idea for the ending, but I seriously suspect that even had Eddie stayed on, we would still have ULTIMATELY gotten a "happy ending". I can see Dylan becoming evil, massive Ranger-finale style fight where zords and bases get destroyed, but during the last desperate battle, Dylan rejects his "true evil" programming and decides to become good and join the rangers/destroy Venjex. The idea that he would turn evil, kill everyone, roll credits was never, ever going to happen in my opinion. I still think it would have been a great ending, though.
Yeah that's what I was thinking. have it be a I'm my own person type of deal
Of course we would have got a happy ending. I always assumed Dr K working on the antidote and Dillon ‘getting more machine’ would lead to Dillion was never real but they could get rid of Venjix and restore ‘Dillon’
Would have been great
That Ending would've been insane
I’ll be honest while I wanted to see Dillon turn evil and fight his team, I don’t like the idea of him never being real, he was a really caring dude
As much as I never liked post-apocalyptic stuff, I thoroughly enjoyed RPM.
I wish that Dillon morph in the finale battle of the last episode of RPM because he’s only one of the Core 5 that doesn't do the tire spinning thing on his arm.
Yes, it annoyed me that he didn't morph in the last episode, especially since he is supposed to be the main character of the show.
If there's one season I could watch for the rest of my life, it's either RPM or SPD those are GOAT seasons
I would’ve just been speechless and in shock over what I just watched. On Netflix of course.
Dillion was my favorite ranger and RPM was my favorite series and still is
I "LOVED" RPM great season and that would've been the perfect ending it was dark ,gritty and action packed! Great content Este💯 ESQUADHEAVY
I think I’m happy that we got the ending we did.
Ranger on Ranger violence MUST end with BOTH Rangers as good guys!
I really like this idea - it would have been sad to see dillon go but the idea sounds really good - the name too sounds really sick to "ranger black" has a loki evil name
not as evil as e-squad tho (HA, GOT IT IN)
I just love the the new writer didn’t even try to keep characters and tone the same. The first episode after the original dude was fired you can trll there is a shift
This is a very interesting thumbnail
They did ya dirty, you could have had your own episode titled after you
If I was in charge definitely would have made Tenaya another Ranger. The thing I dislike the most is leaving food on the plate. Plenty of abilities that could lead to excellent Rangers just get left on The Cutting Room floor
I did want to see her as a ranger even if it was for 2 episodes
@@Popoff.indigo exactly I have a pitch for another season of Rangers that I know no one wants to hear but it involves making use of powers that have been skipped over or forgotten in the series creating new Rangers to fight a new threat and it would bring back veterans who weren't necessarily Rangers before. So much untapped potential in our former sidekicks.
RW:I'M SCOTTISH !- Ranger series Blue
Awesome video 👍 Este I will have to agree they should have kept silver and gold rpm ranger in the ending just like the sentai go onger they kept go on wings til they faced the final boss in go onger E-Squad
I was always wondered why there was no Ranger Black episode.
I might've have made 6th, 9th-12th rangers made. Ended the show with an unforgettable bang!!! Btw Este, you mean the 9th ranger. Genma is the 8th.
Man, I really hoped RPM
continued until early 2010, it was so dark and awesome. But Disney had to ruin it, just like they did with 20th Century Fox (now studios), cancel the 2010 series and instead make a kaka version of MMPR.
RPM mos def in my top 5 favorite Ranger series for real tho
OK…I’m TOTALLY writing a fanfiction where Tenaya becomes a ranger now…I need her to get a (SpongeBob Curse Word Sound) morpher as well!!!
I wrote her being a pink ranger then being married to sky from spd
Well I'm glad they didn't make that ending. If so all of Dillon's charactarization whould be destroyed
I can't believe Disney rejected that the black RPM Power Ranger was going to die at the final episode that looks really cool and epic it's the end of the world basically an RPMs universe oh well more rejected content
I love rpm aswel I watched it on Netflix
I wanted to rewatch it sadly Netflix has bloody removed it +rescue Forse
The last season of the Power Rangers? After they walked out of Disney in 2009, they moved to cable network instead of regular TV. All regular TV networks are bowing out Saturday Morning Cartoons.
0:06 I feel like I have heard this "fun-fact" for the past 2 weeks at least 3 times. "Last season was supposed to be Power Rangers in Space", "Last season was supposed to be Power Rangers WildForce" and now "Last season was supposed to be Power Rangers RPM".
Power Rangers RPM has a similar original ending to Terminator Salvation, where the machines won and the heroes lost. I personally think it would a darkest ending of the Power Rangers franchise where the Rangers lost for once. (I personally think that would be an interesting original ending.) After finding out the original ending, I’m kind of disappointed with the alternative ending. No offense to the Power Rangers fans. That is just my personal opinion for the ending of the Power Rangers RPM. It is sad that the original writer was fired. Just like Richard Donner being fired from Superman II of him finishing 75%. Interesting enough that Eddie finished like 95% of the production of Power Rangers RPM. Not sure how the original crew got done, if you guys know, please let me know in the replies because I’m curious. And then being replace by new ones just with Richard Lester replaced Richard Donner for Superman II. Hopefully few years later, that Hasbro maybe to release the Editor’s cut of the original final episode and ending of Power Rangers RPM.
They should've made beast morphers a direct sequel to rpm
Some ranger shows are underrated
Like jungle fury and mystic force
Some overrated
But rpm I'd just top tear one of the best acting had one of the best stories
And I like that they break the 4 wall plenty of times
And then for the fact that each ranger when threw great character development
From Scott getting over wanting approval of his father
Or dr.k finally finally stepping out into the world and getting along with Ziggy
I would love to see the episode
Especially if ranger black was able to some how fight vingix to help the rangers
This sounds like the the plot of Agents of Shield Season 1
Ranger Red met Jessica, a Detective with Super Strength
My guess is Tanaya would've replaced Dillon as Ranger Black.
I may like jungle fury the most, but i know RPM is one of the best.
Fun Fact: Danny from Game Grumps did a demo song for RPM.
The Dolphin sounds Lmfao #ESqaud
Kinda sad that we never got "ranger black" episode, unlike other colors, even Dr K got her own episode.
Also that original ending was dark, very dark. I would never expect Power Rangers getting this dark (so maybe that's why they decided to change it) but again, this whole season was dark and I would love to see the original ending.
Power rangers rpm was my favorite show because had those cute animal cars
Great work 💯
Power Rangers RPM is by far one of my favorite series from the Disney Era of Power Rangers and it's amazing. This was the last series from the Disney Era of Power Rangers, and then I kinda lost interesting of the Neo-Saban Era of Power Rangers, and it went downhill.
This season help me so much in life. It ended a couple months before I graduated high school. Which led me into adulthood
rw:Rule #1 dont call the suits Spandex -Doctor K
I think it’s interesting that “danger and destiny“ would have been the penultimate episode of the season.
I would of really loved the ending, but I would of balled my eyes out
If Power Rangers RPM would have ended like that, then fans would have definitely find Super Sentai earlier like me and jump ship to watch essentially what made Power Rangers. Also, there will be one more Power Rangers series adapted from Super Sentai. I honestly hope that it's Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Pataranger. It would be something different and I bet they could market the season as Power Rangers V.S.
“ I’m Scottish”
I have an idea for a video. How about talking the problems the Megafoce Seasons production had. Maybe add in a joke about how they should make a proper Gokiager sequel to the shows that is better then the original.
Este, there was a point in time where mighty Morphin Power Rangers had turned kids a bit violent in 1994, could you do a video discussing that? If so could you feature me in that future video?
The original ending would have been awesome would tenaya 7 be good or evil
It Will Be Interesting If ' Power Rangers ; P.R.M '' In A Different Way .
Este, what's your general location in the country (or was)? One of my favorite parts of the RPM run was how it was an ABC Kids exclusive and as such only certain ABC stations would air the show at certain times. My ABC station out of Philadelphia Pa aired RPM at 12 & 12:30pm. I'd always been fascinated and curious as to which ABC stations aired RPM and when and which stations didn't.
at the time i was living in Miami, and the station Local 10 usually has a newscast at 12, leaving Power Rangers with the 5 AM time slot
I still like of what we got in the End in the Finale in Power Rangers RPM even do I did not watch the season Because without that cliff hanger I think we won`t have Power Rangers Beast Morphers Because of that
Oh my gosh! Someone else who would get up at 5 to watch this! Did you also watch lightyear, digimon frontier, and Tarzan and Jane?
Ngl Eddie’s first impression of go onger is what sold me on watching it and why I got into sentai in the first place
Any idea what Adelaide Kane is saying at the beginning? Can't make out a word of it.
I feel like they should do anniversary specials for the milestone seasons and use the original ending as the driving story for a movie
LAST DISNEY VERISON OF POWER RANGERS***
"it was lie. Nothing was real" 😭I love Este so much. ❤️
I have a random question. What super sentai show has the most rangers what number of rangers?
RPM is hands down the best season of PR imo. Great acting, writing, and a DARK premise for PR. If I only had to rewatch ONE PR series for the rest of my life, it would be RPM
i would not have liked that ending and i have a feeling i know why the producers wouldnt like it either, its because for power rangers there should always be a chance for it to continue if need be. most shows i have watched do this kind of thing incase the creator or producers ever want to do a follow up or continue it in the future, like the anime toriko they ended it where the story really actually began, and like what fairytail is doing now, the creator said after the 5th season he was done with the anime but now he says hes bringing it back, so yah if they did the original ending then rpm would never have a crossover with either samurai or beast morphers and ninja steel, so i think the ending they went was a better ending and if they continued with this universe of rangers we maybe could have seen a future ranger team that was in rpm world but they had to fight the orgs of that world cause of the toxic earth venjix had created, but if they ever did think about doing something with that ending i could see it as part of the lord drakken universe
I would of tried ending with all Previous Rangers
If you haven’t already you should make a video on Jetman I’ve heard it’s one of the best super sentai series
Why does chip love having power rangers be related to the villains
RPM was really the best written and acted
If I worked in power rangers I would make an animated series to adapt older sentía like jaqk or goranger it wouldn’t be so far fetched if big hero six and green lantern can make the switch from cg to animation so could power rangers only this time is live action to animation
I knew this was 1 of 3 last season of Power rangers but I didn't know that they had another ending for the finale.
You know what I realized seeing that snapshot of the Sentai RPM is based on, the megaforce team went to the Sentai version of the RPM universe. Doesn't matter in hindsight but interesting
Honestly it should have ended with RPM. Disney was best.
RPM is pretty much the last season i actively enjoyed everything after was either mediocre or garbage beast morphers was pretty good though
@@nyhtfall1969 generations change. Our generation people are not affraid to be harsh or insensitive. Same think with Beyblade, Ben 10, Yu-Gi-Oh. New kids, new PC rules. Even anime doesn't have blood anymore.
@@TheDragonaf1 i think its more a case of a fear being honest
RPM produced my favorite Red Ranger 💯💯
Yeah I would've been okay with that ending, it's different and hits hard
I haven't got around to watching Power Rangers RPM yet, but that idea of making Dillon's sister a Power Ranger would've been really cool to have seen 👍
If Dillon was gonna be a sleeper agent, then why need Tenaya to get the Green Ranger morpher in the first place? They already have their spy.
well fighting good rangers gone bad by spells is never anything new (looking at you young tommy, tommy/draken and thunder rangers) and thanks to "in space" and "spd" we had rangers killing rangers, so that is not a complete original idea per say....but being forced to kill one of their own without a choice would have been an emotional and satisfying ending to "super spandex heros"....i mean power rangers...dont tell DR. K i said that....go ESQUAD RANGERS
Everyone keeps saying RPM was going to be the last season of Power Rangers as if the whole franchise to be permanently gone for good after RPM. I'll admit I was under that impression too back in 2009, but it's worth mentioning that I doubt it was set in stone for that to be the case. All it meant was Disney wasn't going to produce another season after RPM and was just going to let the franchise linger in limbo until Saban came knocking... which they did around 2010-2011 prior to Samurai going into production.
I think it really did ended in a best way .
Talk about your horror themed original ending for Power Rangers RPM original ending…
Eddie can still continue his version of rpm through boom comics.
