Anybody a fan since the beginning?
Not quite sure how I found myself on this board, but here goes.
My best friend and I at the time loved the X-Men cartoon series. He'd spent the night Friday night and we watched Saturday morning cartoons as we typically did. I remember, at that time at least, X-Men came on at 11am. The very first episode of Power Rangers debuted next with the Pudgy Pig. We loved it from the get go. We both became Power Ranger nuts after that.
I think I was a dedicated fan until around 1997, when I was now 14 and getting to be too old for the show (I think I was too old for it as a 10 yr old in '93 too, but whatever.) That year my friend Shawn and I had sort of gone different ways as we were going to different high schools, and the last memory I have of him was going to see the Spawn movie with him one weekend. It'd been a few months since I'd seen him prior to that, and we discussed Power Rangers but I could tell we were both developing other interests.
And, the magic was gone. I'll always have those memories of Power Rangers for those first few years and how everyone in school acted like they didn't watch it, but secretly everyone did, lol.
God giveth and the DMV taketh away!
