BARF!!! This is unbelievable. Alpha feels lonely on Christmas because the Rangers are off helping Santa Claus get ready to make his yearly trip (as opposed to, say, saving children from a burning building or stopping mass deforestation). So what does Zordon do? He teleports some kids to the Command Center (you know, the one that's supposed to have SECURITY CLEARANCE) so they can sing Christmas carols with Alpha! It is notable that the action is nearly nonexistant in this little rough among diamonds.

Sadly, I own this tragic piece of crap (having acquired it when I was younger), and yes, it really IS that bad. I can't copy it to DVD or anything, but if you can get it onto a DVD or know someone who does, give me an address and I'll ship it to them, post-haste.

The unedited pilot is available, as I know because I downloaded it, but it's probably on one of the big torrent sites packaged with the first or second season. If I remember correctly, it was aired on Fox with a special bumper by the guys who played the Black and Red Rangers.

I've seen the stage show, and it's terrible. At one point, the audience was required to shine their "Sprite
Cards" at a giant inflatable model of Lord Zedd in order to make him blow up. So cheesy.
