The Power Rangers On Acid - The Big Bad Beetleborgs - Everything You Didn't Know | SYFY WIRE

Ойын-сауық

Big Bad Beetleborgs looks like a typical kids action show but it’s actually a modern day monster sitcom that’s more like a sequel to The Munsters. Yeah…it’s time to revisit Saban’s Big Bad Beetleborgs.

    Probably because the first 2 seasons took stock footage from the Japanese tokusatsu series, "Metal Heroes: B Fighter," and "Metal Heroes: B Fighter Kabuto," and the Metal Heroes series after that, "B Robo Kabutack was considered too lighthearted to be adapted.

    Right in the last episode, les was tired of being mistreated by the crustaceans, so he left and promised to find a way to send them back to being art, the kids got a boost in power by obtaining boron along with roboborg, so it seemed the borgs kids were ready for one final battle, but no. Wish they went all out to make a proper finale, but I guess power rangers were more important at that time

    I swear this show inspired Saban to add a kid to Power Rangers in the form of Justin in PR Turbo. Which was the wrong move. Kids hated the fact that another squeaker got to be a ranger and not them. Beetleborgs was appealing because the main protagonists were closer to our age as oppose to people in their early 20's.

    Fact: for the _Power Rangers_ 10th anniversary special, “Forever Red”, that aired as part of Wild Force, General Venjix (no, not the Venjix Virus - he debuted 7 years later) and the Machine Empire survivors had their suits recycled from Beetleborgs and their Japanese counterpart shows. Venjix’s suit was taken from Shadowborg, Gerrok’s was from Green Hunterborg, Tezzla’s was from Ladyborg (minus the antennae), Steelon’s was from Dragonborg (minus the dragonfly wing emblem on the helmet), and Automon’s was a hodgepodge of the body of Lightningborg and the head of Fireborg.

    To Piggyback off your post. In one of the later episodes Bulk and Skull were shown reading a Beetleborg comic book. So the Beetleborg franchise is fictitious in the Power Ranger's universe, however despite the Beetleborg characters being fictitious there were generals of the Machine Empire who looked almost exactly like them?

    The problem was they ran out of useable footage from the two seasons they were adapting, “Juko B-Fighter” and it’s sequel “B-Fighter Kabuto”. And since Kamen Rider wasn’t back yet, there were no bug themed heroes to keep the show going. To continue, Saban would have had to make the show with completely American footage. Which is where “Mystic Knights” came in, to do exactly that.

As an inpressional kid, seeing an outsider not only get accepted into the tight knit group of protagonists, but also single-handedly save all of them, only to be depowered and quickly forgotten about for his efforts legitimately messed me up.

    It wasnt the power rangers in space series. I'm pretty sure it was the power rangers jungle fury series, bc it was during that series where they had the episode with the 10 red rangers teaming up, going up against the forgotten generals of the machine empire who were trying to unearth Lord Zedd's ultimate Zord, Serpentera for their purposes, and they were the ones who looked like the beetleborgs. The battle part of the episode just took part on the moon and in the moons gravity.

    I really loved Beetleborgs as a kid. Totally forgot about it until last year when I discovered it was on netflix. I binged the entire series within a few weeks xD Still fun to watch. I really like Horribelle. She was (in my eyes) a decent bad guy. And her motto "If you want something done right, have a woman do it" xD she was awesome. So sad they stopped after 2 seasons. What also made me like Beetleborgs more than Power Rangers or VR Troopers was because it had monsters in it. I was the type of kid that read all the goosebumps books, so having a show with monsters in it, even if it was for cheap slap stick comedy, just added an extra element that appealed to what I liked.

He says the Shadowborg was Season One's ending arc, but it wasn't: at the end of that arc, Blue Stinger got the Mega Blue Beetleborg mode, which was his powerup for the remainder of the season, and the season only really ends after Nukus shows up, necessitating the power change in first place. Also, "season 2 is where it got sitcom"? Nope, the whole show was ALWAYS sitcom XD In fact, the whole "Lost comic" storyline from Season 2 is the show trying to do a myth arc. He also didn't mention how they created original american-only costumes for Season 2's power up mode.
