Default Chase Into Space better than Countdown?

Here is a question I have had in the back of my mind lately. I am one of the fans that vienes "Countdown To Destruction" as the best episode of Power Rangers ever. But when you think about it "Chase Into Space" could arguably be better. Its like the Empire Strikes Back of Power Rangers! Whereas "Countdown" is return of the Jedi ( I guess the poorly acting extras are the ewoks lol).The new Empire is considered the better film in a lot of circles.

I feel there is similar dynamic in play for the two episodes in question here! "Chase" challenges are characters by putting the m in a perilous positkon. In the end they barely survive but are more determined than ever! The iending ahot of the Rangers going onto Space is making the mlst dramatic in Power Rangers . It makes for an excellent cliffhanger given all the events of the episodes.

Now for me personally, I still give "Countdown" the nod. But I feel its a good question and there is certainly an arguement in the other direction. In a lot lf ways "Chase "is underrated and sometimes flrgotten when we discuss the big smoz finale.
