Episode Review:
Even though it was obvious the Gold Ranger would be Red Ranger's brother, they were clever in how they did it. Jordi Webber is a bit dark skin color than William and looks older. While the actor that they chose to play the robot looked younger and had a lighter skin tone. The kids they chose to play them in the flashbacks had the same skin tone as each other. Anyway that's just nitpicking. Jordi and William make a better fit. Twitter PR Fans --- most of them--- are saying they were crying at the reunion hug scene. While those scenes were touching, this episode still had its weak spots like the fighting footage. I wish there was more scenes of Adian as a robot and whatnot but whatever. But now that is revealed, where do they go from here arc wise? The show works best with an arc not with the monster of the week/the ranger learns a lesson single format.
