I was actually going to post this as a comment to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
second_batgirl's entry, but it wound up becoming really bitter and I decided I'd rather spare her. =P
Warning: if you ship Skull/Kim (this isn't the spoiler, btw), this entry is probably not for you.
So, apparently Bulk is going to be in Power Rangers Samurai, along with a mini-Skull who refers to him as "uncle." Although the timeline wouldn't really work out unless Skull had a kid right after he left the show, given the show's continuity issues the kid is very likely Skull's anyway. Insecond_batgirl's entry, some people were speculating that the kid is Skull and Kim's.
Ugh, seriously?
First of all, I'm so done with Bulk and Skull. They took up way too much time during MMPR and (apparently I'm in the minority on this) I didn't find them remotely funny. They started out as obnoxious bullies and finished as obnoxious idiots. Even their rare redeeming moments weren't enough to make up for the fact that they were horrifically annoying characters and should never have gotten as much screen time as they did.
Second of all, if it turns out that Skull Jr. (who is actually kind of amusing in the preview, although his schtick might get old fast) is Skull and Kimberly's child - since the writers were, after all, apparently toying with the idea of announcing that the two had gotten married in "Forever Red" - I'm actually going to scream. How the fuck would it ever be okay for them to get together after Skull sexually harassed her throughout the first (and I believe the second) season of MMPR? Seriously, what the hell. It really, really bothers me when people ship them. Who fucking cares if he matured? "Oh, but that sexual harassment thing was so long ago, no big deal!!! Skull deserves Kimberly now." Ugh, fuck that shit. Fuck. That. Shit.
[/unpopular opinion]
ETA: Just to clarify, this is not intended to be directed atsecond_batgirl or any specific person commenting on the entry. (The "Ugh, seriously?" was a reaction to the possibility of the show doing this, not to the people who were speculating about it.) It's simply my frustration with Skull/Kim shippers in general - again, not with anyone specific - as well as the fact that the writers of the show seem to be amenable to the idea of them winding up together.

Ohhh yes, I would be thrilled to hear that AJJ was like "Um, no. No no no."
I'm kind of taken aback by the number of guest appearances that are rumored to be happening this season (especially with what's happening with this year's Sentai season in Japan)... it's like Saban took the helm and just RAN with it xD
On one hand, I love how a lot of this is very old-school.
On the other hand... it's like a redo, and it's kind of painful.

What other guest appearances are rumored to be happening? This is the first I've heard of them, but I'm intrigued! Guest appearances can be good. =) When you talk about the current Sentai, are you referring to the season where the Rangers can morph into past Rangers' costumes? (I don't really know much about Sentai, so eep.)
Agreed re: the redo... I can see why they're doing it from a marketing standpoint, but it kind of makes me worried that the new season's going to suck. The previews they've had so far aren't very promising, either. =(

Um... shoot, I'd have to hunt them down, but IIRC Blake from NS was set to be there, and there's been rumblings from JDF that he might end up in one or two.
Re: PR:S, I've actually been really excited for this season due to the previews, but mainly because I'm so sold on the cheese-factor (and the old-school music. Does that make me really nerdy that I'm so thrilled about the music?) of old-school. Also, Jayden is SUCH a classic red ranger ("We need to work together!" *runs away on his own with a giant sword as the team stares on, confused*)
As for Sentai, I usually don't follow it... but this season? Morphing into old ranger teams? Pirate rangers? I'm so sold I can't even describe xD

And woah, Blake from NS? Interesting... No shocker that Tommy can't stay away. =P

Hahaha, THIS. Maybe it's bad editing, but I won't get my hopes up. =P Also, the music thing is totally understandable. I legit couldn't get nearly into the "Once a Ranger" teamup as I should have because they didn't have the MMPR theme playing when Adam morphed. =(

I won't get my hopes up. =P
I wish I had that logic! I'm terrified that my excitement will be cut out from under me.

D= That would be made of sad (I have a lot of seasons to catch up on, LOL). It's just not really PR without the MMPR theme!
True story... I would give up my left leg just to see JDF and AJJ stroll across the screen together, arm-in-arm...

Oh dear, haha, how many seasons have you watched? I finally just finished RPM, so now I'm all caught up and ready for Samurai! I... don't want to think of how many hours I spent watching all seventeen seasons. =P
Think of the fandom explosion that would happen if Tommy/Kim were seen onscreen, wedding ring on Kimberly's hand. XDDD That'd be the greatest thing to happen on the show, EVER. XD

Actually *blush* I've watched the MMPR seasons (up through Kim leaving) and Dino Thunder. I'm kind of jumping all over now, trying to get through In Space but it's kind of killing me (Whyyyyy isn't Andros as awesome in the show as he is in fic?!) - Time Force is next on my "to watch" list.

People would be able to hear me running around screaming in OUTER SPACE. I would break physics with my pure, unadulterated excitement.

Time Force is amazing! It's one of my favorite seasons. In fact, maybe it is my favorite season. Also, beware: the acting is actually... *gasp* decent.

Andros just angsts so damn much... and I say this as somebody who is writing one of the angstiest things ever. TJ is pretty darn hot, though... I could stare at him for a looooong time. And Carlos is pretty (so long as he stays quiet, LOL). But Andros makes Tommy look like he could skip around singing songs from musicals.
I haven't gotten to the Psycho arc yet, but I'm really excited to! That arc and Astronema are the only things keeping me with the season, LOL

THIS IS GOOD. I have only seen gifs of it, but Jen already appears to be really freakin' awesome. So I hold out hope!
Hahahaha if Kim/Tommy became an endgame-canon, the fandom would EXPLODE. Like, warzone explosions. But I survived the end of the InuYasha manga, so I hope I could survive that xD
