Its Morphin Time! Did anyone else notice how cheesy The MMPR 30th anniversary special was? Also the absence of certain people was extremely noticeable. Mando ended today, and it was not as satisfying as I had hoped. Star Trek Picard brought the D, and the F to the party, but who invited the Borg? Sonic and the Angry Birds are getting together, and Oppenheimer is not going to let Barbara drop the bomb on him. That and more on this weeks episode!
