* The series-original character with no Franchise/SuperSentai counterpart, Lord Zedd, looks like a ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' character mixed with a Manga/{{Guyver}}. According to costume designer Danielle Baker, "Lord Zedd was designed by a comic book illustrator who would come in and conceptualize everything for us."

Here are the shout-outs made by the multiple seasons of ''Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers''.

* In one scene in Season 3, the Rangers (in their Ninja Ranger outfits rather than their Ranger suits) decide to go all ''Franchise/SuperSentai'', doing a team roll call followed up with a team pose - specifically, the signature pose of ''Series/DaiSentaiGoggleFive''!
* Another one had them doing one of the poses from ''Series/KousokuSentaiTurboranger'', which had a ''very'' similar setup to this show (in terms of "teenagers with attitude" and all).
* One episode involved a MonsterOfTheWeek named Shellshock who was a turtle-creature. When he grew to giant size, he exclaimed, "Just wait until those teenage mutants find out what a full-grown turtle can do!" The reference couldn't have been [[Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles more obvious]].
* In "A Chimp In Charge," as Finster attempts to transform a chimpanzee into the Sinister Simian, he asks "Don't you want to be a big gorilla-like [[Film/KingKong King... what's his name]]?"
* In "Rangers in Reverse," the natural rotation of the Earth is stopped and then put in reverse, causing time itself to rewind. [[Film/SupermanTheMovie Where does this sound familiar?]]
* "May the Power protect you." seems to be at least partially inspired by the phrase "[[Franchise/StarWars may The Force be with you]]."
* "Trick or Treat": Skull (dressed in a prisoner costume) has "[[Literature/LesMiserables 24601]]" written on his chest.
* As Rita Repulsa is being shrunk down by Zedd in "The Mutiny Part I," she exclaims "I'm shrinking! What a planet!" This is an obvious reference to the Wicked Witch of the West's final words in ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'', which was the largest inspiration for Rita when the show began.
** Aside from Rita, the voice and dialogue of the third-season monster Witchblade are shout-outs to the film version of the [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Wicked Witch of the West]]. Witchblade's dying words are "I'm falling, falling - what a world!"
* In "The Wedding," Finster is trying to return Rita to normal size with a machine of his. He eventually says "I've never [[Film/ThisIsSpinalTap turned it]] up to eleven before." This increased setting successfully restores Rita to her proper size.
* Goldar shares his name with the North American localization of ''Series/AmbassadorMagma'', one of the earliest TV Toku heroes ever.
