All Seasons of Power Rangers in the Right Watch Order

Even though there is no particular order in which to watch Power Rangers, the best way to understand the series is to watch it in the order in which it was released. Simply follow the first, second, third, fourth, and all the remaining seasons in the order they were released.   

If you watch the Power Rangers in that order, not only will you enjoy it, but you will understand it and fulfill your role as a Power Rangers fan. Anyway, this is the perfect Power Rangers watch order according to the release date:

1. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (1993)

The Complete Power Rangers Series Watch Order

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is an American superhero television series that premiered on Fox Kids on August 28, 1993. It is the first entry in the franchise and became a pop culture phenomenon in the 1990s along with a plethora of merchandise.

The show used footage from the Japanese TV series Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger (1992-1993), which was the 16th installment of Toei’s Super Sentai franchise.

2. Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers (1996)

Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers is a miniseries set immediately after Mighty Morphin Power Rangers season three. In the same way as the third season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, this miniseries also used footage and costumes from the 18th Super Sentai series, Ninja Sentai Kakuranger.

3. Power Rangers Zeo (1996)

The Complete Power Rangers Series Watch Order

Power Rangers Zeo is an American television series based on the Chouriki Sentai Ohranger series from the 19th Super Sentai series. This is a continuation of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, which aired in 1996. 

Zeo is also the first season of Power Rangers to follow the Sentai practice of changing Ranger suits annually, and also the last series to use “It’s Morphin’ Time,” until Saban Brands began using the command for Power Rangers Megaforce.

4. Power Rangers Turbo (1997)

The fifth season of the Power Rangers franchise is the American television series Power Rangers Turbo. The show was preceded by Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie, the franchise’s second film. 

As with its predecessors, Power Rangers Turbo is based on an entry from the 20th Super Sentai series; in Turbo’s case, the source is Gekisou Sentai Carranger. The series introduced a child actor as the new Blue Ranger, and featured the departure of the long-running characters Zordon and Alpha 5, as well as the veteran Rangers, and introduced four new characters to take their place. 

5. Power Rangers in Space (1998)

The Complete Power Rangers Series Watch Order

Power Rangers in Space is a television series based on the 21st Super Sentai series, Denji Sentai Megaranger, and the sixth season of the Power Rangers franchise.  

It is based on one of the Super Sentai episodes, as with all Power Rangers programs. However, due to miscommunication between the United States and Japan regarding the contents of the Sentai series, much of the space footage in the American adaptation is original. 

Power Rangers in Space was a turning point for the franchise, since it concluded six seasons of plot and ended the practice of having cast members appear in consecutive seasons – which had existed since 1993. 

This series, and its successor, Power Rangers Lost Galaxy, have little in common with their Sentai counterparts.

6. Power Rangers Lost Galaxy (1999)

Power Rangers Lost Galaxy is the seventh season of the Power Rangers franchise and is based on the 22nd Super Sentai series Seijuu Sentai Gingaman. The series was the first series to follow the Sentai tradition of having a new cast with every new series. 

Kendrix (Valerie Vernon) was killed off two-thirds of the way through the season, marking the first time a Ranger had been killed off on the series. Kendrix was removed from the show when Valerie left for a while to be cured of leukemia. After her treatment, she returned for the season finale.

This season is one of the series’ most expensive productions to date.

7. Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue (2000)

In Lightspeed Rescue, the Titanium Ranger was the first Power Ranger without a Super Sentai counterpart, since there was no regular sixth Ranger in GoGo V, making it the only season to have an American-exclusive Sixth Ranger.

Until the premiere of Power Rangers Samurai, this is the last Saban Entertainment-produced Power Rangers series to feature the main villain from its Super Sentai counterpart. The next series to feature the main villain from its Super Sentai counterpart would be the Disney-produced Power Rangers Mystic Force, which premiered six years later.

8. Power Rangers Time Force (2001)

Power Rangers Time Force was an American television series and the ninth season of the Power Rangers franchise, based on the 24th Super Sentai series Mirai Sentai Timeranger, which aired for 40 half-hour episodes from February to November 2001. 

Power Rangers Time Force was the last season to be distributed by Saban Entertainment. Due to the failure of Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie and the purchase of the franchise by Disney, a Time Force film was originally planned, but it was never made. The final four episodes of the series were released as a home video film titled The End of Time by Buena Vista Home Entertainment in 2002. 

Video games based on the series were released for Sony PlayStation, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance in November 2001.

9. Power Rangers Wild Force (2002)

The Complete Power Rangers Series Watch Order

It takes place in 2002 when Power Rangers Wild Force debuts.

The first part of the series originally aired on Fox Kids from February to August 2002. Since the fall 2002 sale of Fox Family Worldwide (renamed ABC Family Worldwide), including Saban Entertainment (renamed BVS Entertainment), to Disney by Haim Saban and News Corporation, the parent company of Fox Network, the show moved to ABC’s new Saturday morning block ABC Kids.

10. Power Rangers Ninja Storm (2003)

Ninja Storm is the eleventh season of the Power Rangers franchise, based on Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger, the 26th Super Sentai series. 

It was the first season of the franchise to be filmed in New Zealand, the first not to be produced by MMPR Productions, and the first to appear on ABC in its entirety; premiered on February 15, 2003.

Dino Thunder was also the subtitle of the South Korean dub of Abaranger and had a similar/identical logo as the American version. Jason David Frank reprises his role as Tommy Oliver in the series. As part of Jetix, it was the first Power Rangers series to air on Toon Disney.

12. Power Rangers S.P.D. (2005)

Power Rangers S.P.D. , based on Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger, the 28th Super Sentai series, is the thirteenth season of the American television series, Power Rangers. The Korean dub of Dekaranger in South Korea shares the same title as the American series, and the logo of the Korean series is similar to the American series.
