This season, so far, this was probably one of the best episodes. The acting (except for Emily's line at the end about the cupcakes, though her line when she busted out the cake was far more beleivable), was far better than in previous episodes...
Normal sized Moogers finally actually making a show, and doing something...though for an instant I was expecting to see some un-morphed fighting footage, especially with Mia when she was captured, but alas...no such luck...
There was no lame pun spewing monster of the week...Dayu had a couple, but at least her puns really didn't seem forced, nor completely lame. Deker...we'll have to wait and see how he turns out...almost felt like Dayu and Deker had a history together...
Also mentioning Dayu, I was really glad to see a "general" actually fighting the Rangers, and holding her own fairly well.
Two things happened with Bulk and Spike that just made me smile. First, Bulk and Spike had an encounter with the monsters...almost...and once again those two were ready to fight them with their kendo sticks...fine line between bravery and stupidity...but still give them props for being willing to do that. The second thing that I was ecstatic about, was that they finally had some interaction with the Rangers...mind you it was minimal...but that just made my day, it was about time the cast actually interacted...hopefully that won't be the last time.
The Rangers were fairly consistent...at least by this series standards...so good for them...
Was it great? Not exactly, but it was yarns better than anything from previous weeks, so good on them. Hopefully we'll some positive build from this episode, which almost succeeded in a lot of places the rest of the season (thus far) has failied. Though part of me thinks that this will probably me a single (almost) hit, amongst a season full of misses.
