1* ActingForTwo:
2** Wrench and Curio are both voiced by Estevez Gillespie.
3** Ivan and his [[IdenticalGrandson descendant]] Zach are both portrayed by Davi Santos.
4* CastTheRunnerUp: Brennan Mejia auditioned for the roles of Chase and Riley before being cast as Tyler.
5* CreatorBacklash:
6** Michael Taber (Riley) said at a convention in 2017 that while he appreciated the opportunities this show gave him, he discovered that he would rather be behind the camera instead. Conflictingly, in a now deleted Tweet (which Taber admitted to writing while drunk) from just before that convention appearance, he called his time with the show "horrible".
7** Creator/CamilleHyde (Shelby) seems to have completely distanced herself from the show, deleting anything Power Rangers related from her social media accounts and not showing up for Power Morphicon 2018 with no explanation even though she was announced months ahead of the event to be attending.
8** With that being said, they were apparently willing to do a voiced RoleReprise for the team up with ''Series/PowerRangersBeastMorphers'', [[https://youtu.be/vHJ-R5R_s24?t=534 according to Brennan Meija in his react video]], even though they didn’t film anything on camera with everyone else.
9* DawsonCasting: Although Riley is the youngest of the Rangers at 17, his actor Michael Taber was 20 years old at the start and 22 by ''Super Charge'', which as a result meant he looked roughly the same age as the others.
10* DevelopmentGag: All the references to New Zealand... which is where this was filmed. (Particularly noticeable is when Chase, who is from NZ, mentions that a certain piece of scenery is "just like home.")
11* IronyAsSheIsCast: Brennan Mejia, who plays Tyler the Red Ranger, is red-green colourblind.
12* NotHisSled: [[spoiler: Tyler's father]] being the [[spoiler: Aqua Ranger]] instead of [[spoiler: Silver]] like his ''Kyoryuger'' counterpart.
13* OutOfOrder: "The Ghostest with the Mostest", since it featured a Zord (the Pachy Zord) that wasn't officially obtained by the Rangers until the following episode, "Rise of a Ranger" (chalk this one up to ExecutiveMeddling, since it was a {{Halloween|Episode}} ClipShow that was meant by the creative team to air closer to Halloween itself).
14** The ChristmasEpisode "Race to Rescue Christmas" has a background shot of the Purple Energem in storage in the Rangers' base. Kinda jarring since it aired in between the two episodes that essentially served as the first season finale - during which said Energem is '''stolen''' by Sledge and his minions. Besides, the episode is really hard to fit into the continuity (if it's not outright ''out'' of it), since Chase is ready to return to New Zealand in this episode... Just as he was in "One More Energem", which came after.
15* PromotedFanboy: Aside from Yoshi above, there's Michael Taber (Green Ranger) -- he's a longtime fan of Power Rangers and even went as [[Series/PowerRangersLostGalaxy Magna Defender]] for Halloween as a child!
16* PropRecycling:
17** Several of the monsters in Sledge´s prison appeared somewhere in the past seasons. One of the most obvious is Necrolai from Series/PowerRangersMysticForce in ''Wishing For a Hero'' as she is visible all the while Heckyl clashes with Sledge, and the last of the prisoners trying to escape to be thrown back in her cell. Necrolai also appeared in the episodes ''One More Energem'', ''When Evil Stirs'', ''Forgive and Forget'' and ''Forged Under Fire''.
18** Beevil, a minor character from Series/PowerRangersNinjaStorm appears in the episodes ''Wishing For a Hero'' and ''When Evil Stirs'' as a prisoner. However, the monster in the cell only has the head and upper body of Beevil, it has the wings of Broodwing from Series/PowerRangersSPD and wears a red dress.
19** A prisoner in a cloak has the head of an unused monster from Series/PowerRangersSPD. He is seen in the episodes ''The Ghostest With the Mostest'' and ''No Matter How You Slice It''.
20** A prisoner with the head of Behemoth from Series/PowerRangersMysticForce and the body of Fortress (a robot Wrench would later create) appears in ''When Logic Fails'' and ''The Royal Rangers''.
21** The retreating monster Heckyl kills in ''When Evil Stirs'' has the head of Dumbbell Bot from ''RPM''.
22* RealLifeRelative:
23** In the Latin American Spanish dub, all of Creator/JoseLuisOrozco's children have major roles. Luis Fernando voices Chase the Black Ranger, Andrea voices Shelby the Pink Ranger and [[Creator/AlejandroOrozco Alejandro]] voices Sir Ivan the Gold Ranger.
24** Jessica Ángeles, the Latin American Spanish voice actress for Kendall Morgan, is the niece of Koda's LA voice actor, Creator/LuisDanielRamirez.
25* ShortRunInPeru: Brazil was getting the ''Supercharge'' episodes - and the spoilers contained therein - three weeks ahead of broadcast in the USA. In Australia, the episodes aired one week earlier.
26* TeasingCreator: Before the Aqua Ranger's official debut, scattered throughout the season were various minor characters with cyan motifs[[note]]Tyler's missing dad's shirt [[spoiler:(he turns out to be the one)]], The Dino Café waitress serving the Rangers as they discuss the Ankylo Zord, Julian the photographer with his inner T-shirt, the snatch thief in New Zealand with his bike and [[spoiler:Heckyl with his skunk stripe and innerwear.]][[/note]]
27* {{Tuckerization}}: "True Black" involves a boyband called the N-Zed Boys who, fittingly are from New Zealand - where the show is filmed.
28* WhatCouldHaveBeen: [[WhatCouldHaveBeen/PowerRangers Has its own section here]].
29* WordOfSaintPaul: In December 2020, Michael Taber would reveal that not only did he interpret and play Riley as gay but that he also had a crush on Chase.
