30 Days of PR: Day 1
Nov. 1st, 2010 04:43 pmSo yeah, this is my "make November productive" activity, because I'm looking for a second job right now, and hope to have it soon, which will be less than productive for getting something like NaNo done, and fuck mustaches.
Day 1: How did you get into PR?
I actually watched from nearly the beginning, if not the beginning. I may have missed the first airing of Day of the Dumpster, but I most definitely saw the out-of-order airing of Food Fight that came next. Pudgy Pig made an impression on young me. So did Billy, because whenever I played Power Rangers out in my backyard, I used a couple point-free lawn darts as the separated Power Lance.
I continued watching through Time Force, though I had an amazing knack for missing the ends of seasons - I didn't see Countdown to Destruction, for example, until I did my whole-series marathon that I started a couple summers ago. I fell out of watching because I started high school during TF, and suddenly I had shit going on on Saturday mornings and weekday afternoons ALL THE TIME, and when I didn't have anything going on on a Saturday, that meant GLORIOUS SLEEP.
I got back into watching, and into the fandom proper*, in the summer of 2008. I don't even remember what set it off, but I decided that I was going to watch through all the seasons of PR that I had seen before, so I could catch all those episodes I'd missed (ESPECIALLY the end of TF, because seriously). Then I went "Eh, I can throw in WF, finish out the Fox Kids era." Then I went "That's more than half the series, I'll just watch the whole thing." Except for OO, I'm glad I did. (I'm kidding. OO has an entertaining theme song, if you imagine the B-52s are singing it, and that's actually worth a lot to me and my camp loving heart.)
*I'd kiiiind of been in the fandom before. I wasn't on any forums, didn't read fic or anything, but I read enough fansites to have found out about Super Sentai during Lost Galaxy.
