* ''Film/MightyMorphinPowerRangersOnceAndAlways'':
** Billy and Zack are co-parenting Trini's orphaned daughter Minh, and bicker LikeAnOldMarriedCouple. Billy is also apparently separated from (though still friendly with) Cestria of Aquitar, his hastily written-in love interest who existed entirely to hide the fact that David Yost had walked off the show due to the incessant gay bashing he endured behind the scenes.
** For his part, David Yost is aware of queer interpretations of Billy, but doesn't want to see them happen in canon. He's said that letting Billy be straight allows him to put some cognitive distance between himself and the character.
* ''Series/PowerRangersCosmicFury'':
** Ollie is enamored with Billy Cranston as soon as they meet, and acts like a giddy little kid around his cool older crush. Amelia even teases that [[EvenTheGuysWantHim he's making her jealous]].
** Aiyon and Zayto's close friendship goes several steps further this season, culminating in [[spoiler:Aiyon attempting to follow Zayto '''to the afterlife'''.]]

* ''Film/PowerRangers2017'': Quite a bit of it, primarily between [[FanPreferredCouple Trini and Kim]], most of which doesn't even get into Trini [[AdaptationalSexuality possibly liking girls]] in this version...
** The two of them spend ''a lot'' of their time together in this version, getting very close and enjoying each other's company. And Trini is [[DefrostingIceQueen very cold to the other rangers at first]], except for Kim, who's the only one who can get her to open up and smile.
** A lot of their scenes can be viewed in a romantic light, like a deleted scene where [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XNg_Cc5Hao Kim discovers]] that her locker has been vandalized. Trini's response? ''Rip the door off'' and offer to carry her stuff for her. Looking at the infamous "donut scene" out of context, it's ''very'' easy to assume that the two of them are actually on a date, rather than just close friends.
** At one point, two of Kimberly's ex-friends exit ''a bathroom stall together'' [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment for no apparent reason.]] Uh, okay...
** Rita really enjoys caressing Trini's face when she attacks her and pins her to a wall. Bonus points for it being in Trini's bedroom. This obviously doubles as NoYay. Another example of this is when Rita literally searches the jewellery store desk clerk's mouth with her fingers. The clerk is clearly surprised by this but notably doesn't ask her to stop.

* ''Series/PowerRangersSamurai'': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLgFqWqCw1M Jayden and Antonio.]] Just... Jayden and [[AmbiguouslyGay Antonio]]. *Jayden's childhood friend returns to become the SixthRanger in "Unexpected Arrival", where ''after'' a rather, um, ''flamboyant'' showing in battle, he announces "Believe it baby! I'm back, and I'm ready for some ''action''!" and ''struts'' toward Jayden (to give him a hearty handshake), set to a musical cue that could easily pass for romantic (or the lead-in to a porn scene). In the following episode, "Room for One More", he arrives at Shiba House in a tuxedo, and petitions the Rangers' mentor to join the team in a scene that feels very much like he's asking Mentor Ji's permission to ''date'' Jayden. That Jayden coyly waits outside rather than sitting in on the interview with the other rangers adds to the feel. Given the fairly weak acting of the season to this point, it's a bit striking how much more genuine their affection seems than ''any other emotion any character has conveyed all season''.

* ''Series/PowerRangersRPM'' ''Series/PowerRangersRPM'': Dillon/Ziggy was the most popular, so popular that even one of the actors commented on it. Dan Ewing, who played Dillon the Black Ranger, was being interviewed once and ''Series/PowerRangersSamurai'' have [[HoYay/PowerRangersRPM their]] [[HoYay/PowerRangersSamurai own pages]].mentioned how supportive the fans had been to the ''RPM'' cast. Then it got weird.
--->"Even the creepy fan-love things. People, creepy. Like, okay, if anybody listening to this is doing any creepy love stuff between ''me'' and any of the other Ranger ''males'' ... stop that shit."
** What was so brilliant about that is Ewing was less annoyed that slash fanfic existed, and more annoyed that everybody was pairing him with the wrong guy. When told of the love for Dillon and Ziggy ([[PortmanteauCouplename Diggy]], as it was called), Ewing exclaimed, "How would that be a good match?", and then wondered why people hadn't paired him with Eka Darville, who played Scott the Red Ranger. [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Brilliant]].
** Milo Cawthorne (the actor who played Ziggy) once posted on Rangerboard that he thought the Diggy pairing was great. Go figure.
** Ewing could be right about Scott and Dillon. Particularly in "Dome Dolls", notice where their hands are after succumbing to the "XY sleep agent"...then again they did spend an episode [[ChainedHeat chained to each other]] [[ChainsOfLove so it's not that surprising]].
** Scott/Gem was apparently also a thing.

** The end of "Broken Dreams" adds a whole new level of Ho Yay when Jayden and Antonio are limping to the bench, panting and catching their breath while saying things like "Every muscle hurts" and "Just like old times."
