Not even Jason David Frank could've seen the monumental success of Power Rangers coming, and 25 years later he returns to where it all began.
Specifically his evil Green Ranger days. Frank shared an image with him on the rocks looking out into the ocean saying "25 years ago this is where we filmed Power Rangers!!! Evil green ranger scene Crazy...... JDF."
Mighty Morphin was filmed all over California, but the Angel Grove Beach itself was filmed at the Frank G. Bonelli Regional Park in San Dimas. Other locations like the Command Center and High School were filmed at the Brandeis-Bardin Institute in Simi Valley and Ulysses S. Grant High School in Van Nuys respectively.
Lots of things have changed since those days, including how much fighting and training is involved in the individual episodes. Frank recently compared the Mighty Morphin days to newer seasons and the differences that have surfaced between the two.
"Even now you go and look back at some of the episodes (Mighty Morphin) and you've got Ninja Steel, and all these episodes there's not a lot of fight scenes in it, they're not fighting Putties. So when we were in season 1 it was like hardcore training. We did front suicides on concrete, we did all of our own stunts. I was there early all the time saying "give me, give me, give me, let me do some stuff!"
As for the current run of Power Rangers, you can learn more about Power Rangers Ninja Steel below.
"With the franchise's 24th season, Saban Brands' Power Rangers Ninja Steel starts deep in space, where Galvanax is the reigning champion of the most popular intergalactic game show in the universe in which monsters battle to prove who is the mightiest warrior. Galvanax is determined to become invincible by controlling the mythical Ninja Nexus Prism, which contains six supernatural Ninja Power Stars. The only thing standing in his way is a new team of heroic teenage Power Rangers who possess it. The evil Galvanax sends his warrior contestants down to Earth to steal the Ninja Power Stars, where each epic battle against the Power Rangers is broadcast throughout the universe. Together, the Rangers must master their arsenal of Ninja Power Stars, Zords and Megazords, each made of legendary Ninja Steel, in order to stop this evil threat and save Earth from destruction."
