Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers

White Light (1) - S2-E17

Continuity mistake: When Bulk and Skull are waiting out the appearance of the Rangers, Bulk's kneepads are just below his knees. When he goes to grab Skull (after the explosion), they are around his ankles. When they arrive at the explosion scene, they are on his knees.

Season 2 generally

Revealing mistake: Certain monsters in Zord battles were designed for the first series. This is so Saban could use Japanese footage of ground fights, to save on shooting their own (As the costumes from series 1 carried over into series 2). Sometimes, you can see the Megazord, and Dragonzord, getting attacked (you may need to pause it). It should be the Thunderzord, or Tigerzord.

Zedd's Monster Mash - S2-E21

Other mistake: When Tommy is ambushed by the putties, he kicks one which explodes despite the fact that the Z on the puttie's chest never glowed white like they always have in previous episodes.

Suggested correction: The entirety of Angel Grove doesn't know them personally. Also that is the power of voice over. You would never sound that clear while wearing a tight helmet that covers your mouth.

So what about when they talk to recurring characters such as the guy who works the bar at the youth centre (can't think of his name off the top of my head).

Haha. It is a bit like standard suspension of disbelief and a common mistake to most superhero TV/movies/comic books even, but I very much agree that there is no real way to make a rational and logical explanation for it. They do meet recurring characters a lot, plus, I mean...they all hang out together, some of them wearing also clothing patterned with a dominance of their trademark ranger colors and that makes the fact that they are a group even more conspicuous.

Sammo

They all wear clothing dominated by the colour of their persona. Plus the fact that they are never around when the rangers are around.

Suggested correction: This was a common occurrence during the entire run of the show, and it was theorized that the suits had an ability to self-repair to keep the Rangers from more harm. The only Ranger to never sustain damage to their suit was Tommy, since he had the Dragon Shield to protect him.

Yes, it's a common occurrence throughout the show, but normally it shows damage until the end of the battle/morph sequence. In the mistake listed above, the damage disappears between camera cuts in the middle of a fight sequence.

In the final battle between the Red and Evil Green Rangers, Jason shows a black impact mark on his chest, but it's gone in the next shot; maybe the suits do self-repair.

High Five - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: As Bulk goes to start climbing the rope, Jason is standing behind him with his arms crossed and he has on his watch and wrist bands. After Bulk gets back up from falling, Jason's watch and bands have vanished. (00:02:55)

Day of the Dumpster - S1-E1

Character mistake: Zordon begins to explain to the Rangers about their powers and then their Zords. At one point, he says "You need only to turn to the power of your Dino Zords." However, the subtitles get it wrong and spell it as if he's saying "Dinosaurs" instead of Dino Zords which is what he says. (00:10:38)

Suggested correction: It's not actually trapped there. He quickly fails that arm around again, then reaches down into that position to grab his weapon.

Calamity Kimberly - S1-E31

Continuity mistake: During the battle involving the Zords, the Samurai pulls four pins out from his head, two each side, leaving a visible gap. However, this gap is filled very soon after, as the pins have reappeared. (00:16:00)

Zedd Waves - S2-E26

Other mistake: After the shot changes from Zedd yelling at Goldar to Tommy, Kim, and Billy in the park, for a brief second, you can see the three actors were standing and waiting for the cue to begin walking; most noticeably with Tommy who puts a little jump into his first step from standing.

Trivia: Tommy has been more colours than any other Ranger. He has been the Green, White, Red, and Black Ranger.

Answer: Probably to save on costs of filming the same scene. In the reused shots they have always morphed so you can't see the actors. They just have to pay them to do voice-overs rather than the entire scene.
