Its not American Sentai, its Power Rangers. Both brands are just as important in their own countries. Outside of Japan you could argue PR is more important. Since its more exportable to the West.
MMPR was pretty unique. Season 1 actually does a great job of showing a lot of the Zyuranger action footage. I think the contemporary feel of the American Actors really makes it tick though. It was amazing how they had to adapt two unrelated Sentai's over the next two years. In addition to keeping the Zyuranger suits. MMPR was a very interesting time. To call it terrible is doing it a disservice in my opinon.
