This breakdown makes Season 3 considerably shorter than Seasons 1 and 2 unless you include the MMAR mini-season as part of it, which I don't, but it also gives each season a defined premiere and a defined finale.

Thoughts? Are there any issues with how I've chosen to break the seasons down?

Why was the official order not good enough for you?

The way the official order has the episodes broken down, there's no clearly defined 'finale' for any of the 3 seasons, making them anomalies compared to the rest of the franchise. Each of the other seasons, including the 'mini-season' MMAR, has a clearly defined premiere and a clearly defined finale, but what my breakdown does is clear up the anomaly by giving each of the 3 MMPR seasons a premiere and a finale, as I already stated.

The official order was fine the way it was.

You didn't really change anything. It just looks like you wanted different air dates for The Mutiny and Ninja Quest. You really didn't need to type out the names of all of the episodes.

Also, how is MMAR not a part of season 3?

Also, how is MMAR not a part of season 3?

Because a large part of the fandom think that the whole "I don't like it therefore it doesn't exist" approach is justified.

By the logic of MMAR not being part of MMPR3, then technically Green With Evil never existed either.

Just like GWE was a large part of MMPR1, as was MMAR with MMPR3, whether people like it or not.

I've seen this taken to extreme lengths. Like people not even counting the Alien/Zeo teamup because apparently... the Alien Rangers "aren't a real team" because they didn't appear for a full season.

Why did you leave out Green With Evil?

Why did you leave out Green With Evil?

He didn't.

He just named them as what each part is called.

"Out of Control
Jason's Battle
The Rescue
Eclipsing Megazord
Breaking the Spell"

rather than

"Green With Evil Part 1
Green With Evil Part 2
Green With Evil Part 3
Green With Evil Part 4
Green With Evil Part 5"

Addressing why I didn't group MMAR as part of S3, I consider it to be its own separate entity; a 'mini-season' if you will.

Also, Jiemusu is correct; I used the actual titles for the GWE episodes rather than the more common designation of GWE Parts 1-5.

... I don't really get the point of this. I mean I realize your intention of giving 'better' finales to the seasons but, why? Since, as far as I can tell, you didn't really change the order just listed a few episodes as different seasons it doesn't change anything... I would understand making a list to take out filler episodes, to account for continuity errors, or a list of episodes that you plan to watch in marathon order but, this???:confused: I agree with ForeverBlue the official order is fine.

:cool:
