Power Rangers Revival Bites The Dust

For a second time, a new Power Rangers project has failed to get out of the starting gate. Deadline reports Disney, set to produce the show through 20th Television and stream it on Disney+, balked at paying to produce a high-end superhero show for a property they do not own. Tyler and Josh discuss the implications of this news and the possibility of a longer-term break for Power Rangers.
