* SeriesFauxnale: This was intended to be the series' finale, since Saban exhausted almost all of the original ''Zyuranger'' footage. But when MMPR proved to be a surprise sensation, they revised the episode at the last minute, editing out the ending from ''Zyuranger'' where [[http://sirstack.livejournal.com/5629.html Rita Repulsa and her henchmen are sent back to the dumpster (then-revealed to be a "magical urn")]]. The fact that it was meant to be the series finale becomes very obvious at the end when Zordon gives the Rangers the option to retire as well as the Rangers acting like Rita had been defeated for good, even though in the final air version she escapes. Though even with this revised ending, it could imply that Rita has [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere given up and fled]].

** Although it does explain why they know so much about Rita's monsters afterwards and why she turned more to alternate means of making monsters (since she knew Zordon and Alpha knew everything about Finster's monsters). She also seemed to step back a bit and let Goldar enjoy a more DragonInChief role for the next several episodes.

While the Green with Evil storyline had bad things happen the robot, being tossed into a ''lava pit'' and showing the individual zords roaring as they were seemingly DraggedOffToHell, they'd never go so far before as to show a zord being deliberately dismembered.
