** Rita, who’s main goal [[MotiveDecay at first]] is to make all boys her sex slaves.

* QueerAsTropes: Billy.
** According to Episode 24, arguably Alpha.
** According to the series, arguably everyone. At one point they imply [[spoiler:Rita and Kim slept together, though Rita identifies as 'bi-curious']].

* EditingWorks

* FreudianSlip Zack's accent allows one to happen rather easily

* GagDub

* AuthorAvatar: Zordon and Alpha, to an extent. [[spoiler: This gets ratched up to 11 once Episode 45 drops; Master Vile in this universe equates to the author "entering" the show to destroy it from within.]]
* BigDamnHeroes: Bulk and Skull [[spoiler: wind up saving the day during episode 17. The footage used? ''The scene where they morphed into mock-Power Rangers from the Season 1 episode "Crystal of Nightmares"''.]]

* ButtMonkey: Canary Gary from episode 13. [[spoiler: And episode 31.]] He gets possessed by an evil heart, blown up by the Rangers several times when they can’t work out to destroy the heart [[spoiler: and then Zordon has him assassinated for not paying him back]].

* DownerEnding: [[spoiler: Zordon realizes the show is tanking due to films like ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'' and ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'' highlighting the villains and has the rangers killed off-screen. Without the rangers to stop him, Master Vile uses the Orb of Doom to halt the earth's rotation, killing everyone on Earth by making them float up into the atmosphere and eventually asphyxiate, leaving Rita, Zedd, and the rest of the villains to do with Earth as they please.]]

* [[spoiler: InteractiveNarrator: Episode 40 reveals that the writers' universe coincides with the Truncated Power Rangers universe. Somehow. It ends up becoming much more when he turns into Master Vile.]]

* [[spoiler: PrecisionFStrike: Ivan Ooze's demise in the Movie.]]

** [[spoiler: Goldar's the only one who played the Dagger's proper tune. This is at least partly because [[GoodIsDumb Jason and Tommy are idiots.]]]]

* [[spoiler: SelfInsertFic: Episode 45. The author becomes Master Vile.]]

* [[spoiler: SpecialGuest: Mr. Mighty RAW himself, Ron Wasserman, voiced Episode 26's... Ron Wasserman.]]

** Tommy wondered if the Megazord had a bathroom. [[spoiler: It did.]]
*** [[spoiler: Tommy was disappointed to learn that Rita did not install one in the Dragonzord.]]

* WhamEpisode: Episode 40. [[spoiler: The episode begins with a "real world" prologue in which the author has trouble finding inspiration for Aisha's focus episode. Eventually we cut to the episode, but near the end, the "real" world and the "Truncated" world begin to interact in strange ways... In the end, the author is so pissed with the {{ass pull}}s that the show is doing that he vows to end the show for ''good''.]]
** Episode 45. [[spoiler: After many failed attempts to end the show, the writer decides to ''ingest the essences of a few of his creations'', transforming him into the equivalent of Master Vile. He then enters the program to destroy the show from within, which he finally succeeds in doing by the finale.]]

* TurtlePower: Episode 5.

* [[YouHaveToHaveJews You Have to Have a Jewish Stereotype]]: Started with Billy in Episode 3. Dropped for a [[QueerAsTropes different]] character direction for Billy. Lord Zedd (who was AmbiguouslyJewish in the real show) brings it back full force.
-->'''Lord Zedd''', Episode 23: I am Lord Zedd of Nazareth. Identify yourself, you schmuck.

* AffectionateParody: Who didn't love Power Rangers?
* AnythingThatMoves: Kim. Just ... Kim.
** Rita, when they aren't making menstruation jokes.
* ArtisticLicenseAstronomy: Lampshaded in Episode 1, with the astronauts visiting the Earth's ''second'' moon. The show itself [[Headscratchers/HomePage glosses]] over this.
** This is the basis for the morph gag in Episode 25.
* AsHimself: Ron Wasserman.
* AttackAttackRetreatRetreat: Tommy v. Dry Bowser in the movie.

* ButtMonkey: Canary Gary from episode 13. [[spoiler: And episode 31.]]

* TheAbridgedSeries: [[CaptainObvious Duh]]. Lampshaded in Episode 10:

* SuspiciouslyAproposMusic: The series' creator is a ''huge'' fan of this. It's difficult to find a viewer that can name all the musical references.

* ArtisticLicenseAstronomy: Lampshaded in Episode 1, with the astronauts visiting the Earth's ''second'' moon. The show itself [[JustBugsMe glosses]] over this.

* {{Leitmotif}}: Youth Center scenes are accompanied by the ''VideoGame/WiiSports'' theme. Bulk and Skull's are various [[SuperMarioBros Super Mario]] themes. When Rita is around, her palace scenes are accompanied by [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ganondorf's]] theme; similarly, Zedd is always coupled with [[VideoGame/MegaMan Dr. Wily's]] theme.

** [[Creator/JohnnyYongBosch|Adam]] getting mocked about [[TakeThat|his voice acting career]].

* TakeThat: Zack's character is a shot at Samuell Benta.
** Episode 6 takes a shot at [[Series/PowerRangersMysticForce Mystic Force]].
** The mock PSA, aka Episode 15.5, features a not so subtle shot at [[Series/PowerRangersTurbo Justin]].

** The third act of Episode 37 ("Now in HD") has Jack Olesk--ahem, Ninjor--take potshots against Christopher Nolan's ''The Dark Knight'' trilogy.
---> '''Ninjor''': ''TheDarkKnightRises'' sucked. There, I said it.

* TakeThatMe: Constantly.

--> Alpha: "I don't understand this Zordon, Saba doesn't talk!"
--> Zordon: "Tommy's turned his new superpowered weapon into something of an imaginary friend."
--> Alpha: "Isn't he like twenty?"
--> Zordon: "It's Tommy, he's mentally six."

* [[MicrosoftWindows Windows XP]]: Episodes 29 and 30 imply that the entire Command Center, let alone Alpha 5, run on this.
-->'''Command Center Computer''': Now installing update one of seven.
