Here is the famous theme song.
The series takes place in Angel Grove, a made-up town in California. The main villain, Rita Repulsa has been released and wants to take over Planet Earth.
So, it falls on five teenagers--Jason, Kimberly, Trini, Zack, and Billy--to stop her and her henchmen. A sixth ranger joins their group later on, which is where the trope "The Sixth Ranger" comes from, which describes when a new character joins the main cast.
A typical episode usually started out with the main cast hanging out (or working out) at the gym, and we would learn about some problem one of them was having. They might have a run in with the two bullies, Bulk and Skull. Later, the kids are called on a mission and they have to go deal with Rita Repulsa's henchmen or "monster of the week." If the battle gets too tough, the Power Rangers will call on their Zords, which are Mechas that look like animals, or in this case prehistoric animals, like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, a Pterodactyl, a Sabertooth Tiger, a Mastadon, or a Triceratops. Those Zords could then combine together and become the Megazord, whick looks more human-like.
Since MMPR, Power Rangers has had several more incarnations, all based on Super Sentai. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers will be getting a feature-length movie that will be releasing next March. Variety has a first look of the new cast and some info on the movie. My brother and I a fans of the show, so we are very excited to see this movie. I hope it will live up to the original and won't completely butcher it. I guess we'll find out next year.
