RPM being in an alternate dimension

[A Gia To Remember]

Maybe Mack wound up in the RPM world at some point and got captured by Alphabet Soup? I assume he escaped and left his helmet.

I think its an AU. But not the type of AU that has Dopplegangers.

Also RPM is still in continuinty because the au exists in the show. As we saw in the team up with Samurai. I don't think we will see too many seasons lime RPM as Aus. Unless there premisis contradicts existing canon or has a world destorying event.

yea that is what Eddie had originally envisioned but whatever he had envisioned did not matter once he was fired.

Judd Lynn had to come in to clean up Eddie's mess. Than at least the show felt like PR again. The damage was already done. RPM was so contrary to the franchise they had to make it an au.

I disagree with RPM being overrated it's a great season but I do admit that he had no clue what he was getting himself into but the whole production thing is overstated since he only had a minor issue with being slow with scripts that was his only issue and he had promised Disney that it would't happen again which originally they were fine with but then they had went back on their word.
A lot of his ideas were awesome regardless of whether it would have fit with previous seasons or not however I for one wouldn't have been a fan of his Ranger Black thing.

I just think it made sense to have RPM being an AU. The idea of a post-apocalyptic world close to our timeline doesn't jive with a show that starts over with a new team every year . I am fine with doing it once in awhie. RPM being an AU is original. Most less predicatable than saying RPM is in the future.

[VR Master]

I am fine with it too as a one time thing.

[MMPR Forever]

I think every season post MMPR is an AU.

[Rangerlord]

Its unacceptable for any season to be an AU. Its bad enough the first and new movies are AUs.

They explained that the Alphabet Soup research group discovered an energy field that was supposed to be the Morphing Grid.

I hated RPM being a au. But I thought the series was way too dark and serious anyway. It didn't even feel like Power Rangers. It did improve in the second half. But the best part of RPM was Gem and Gemma.

I had no problem with RPM being in an alternate dimension. If comic books can do alternate dimension stories, why should Power Rangers be excluded from that?

Goldar's Revenge: Eddie was willing to take a risk and not limit himself to the sentai, resulting in a classic series. Tzachor, in terms of Samurai and Megaforce, did the opposite and came up with a knockoff(Samurai) and a total flop (Megaforce).
