Season 1 generally

Audio problem: Rita is dubbed over extremely poorly - her words don't match her mouth. This is because Power Rangers is adapted from the Japanese Super Sentai series, and the footage of Rita was from the Japanese series.

Audio problem: Despite extensive overdubbing in the scene where Bob returns, the roar of helicopters can still be heard in the background.

Totally Spaced Out / The Switch Glitch - S2-E8

Audio problem: In Fairly Odd Parents, "Switch Glitch", Vicky forced Timmy to do her chores and homework, and stretched a dress on Timmy. He said "I can't do chores in a dress.". Vicky, however, was recording Timmy's voice on a tape, the "in a dress" part, and played the tape, but the tone of voice for "in a dress." was normal, not angry. Shouldn't it be the same?
