Shop Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Costume Accessories The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers came into being in 1993 and it helped Fox with its kids programming block. This is when it was launched into popular culture and after that came toys and action figures aplenty. It has been produced by three companies — Saban Entertainment, then BVS Entertainment, then SCG Power Rangers LLC. Inspiration and some footage came from the Japanese franchise, tokusatsu Super Sentai. This is now a well recognized long term franchise which has been created around a live action TV series for kids.
Initially criticized for action violence, it weathered that storm and as of now, has had nineteen TV seasons and sixteen different types of series. There have been two theatrically-released movies as well. Power Rangers production ended in 2009 and Power Rangers RPM ended in December of 2009. In 2010 they rebroadcast, with some additional footage, the original series. Saban bought back the rights in 2010 and will premiere a nineteenth season consisting of 43 episodes on Nickelodeon.
