Cast of Lightspeed Rescue Explains How It Was Made (DVD Bonus Feature)

[@MaskofFayt]

Gotta say, Lightspeed Rescue is one of the few seasons that aged well. Less superheroes in general but more a rescue team of heroes for kids, which is very, very common on tv now.

[@KudaGeatsune3821]

To me it was Live action rescue heroes

[@geocross237]

Ikr? My favorite tv shows these days (besides Cobra Kai) include 9-1-1 and the One Chicago series

[@BGRecon]

My son has been watching paw patrol which made me want to watch light speed.

[@hiltonlive32grnrngr]

Lightspeed Rescue is a criminally underrated season. It's my favorite out of the entire Saban era! Easily one of my favorite ranger seasons.

[@AndreNitroX]

Thank you to this day it is still my favorite always loved how fresh and gritty it was

[@johnathancollins6888]

Completely agree/ lightspeed rescue is my top favorite season and always will be

[@luchomscyfy]

Probably the best Power Rangers season. Solid in all the fronts.

[@maxkim7937]

for me, it's timeforce, lightspeed, lost galaxy, and wildforce, in that order. after that, the rest are tied in the middle until we reach samurai. samurai was okay but the rest, i stopped caring

[@monkey.d.raijin4644]

It goes for me , space, time force, light speed and glaxay

[@Ai14106]

Sean's look and voice is what I imagine for a serious leader

[@Azeltirish]

I remember reading some comments years ago, that he's a firefighter because he really loves Carter from Lightspeed Rescue. Truly one of the best Red Ranger/leader

[@MrScaryPasta]

I freakin love this show. Carter is one of my fav Red Rangers. His overall personality is matched only by his amazing skills. Plus he works so well with his team mates. They have such good team synch.

[@sigxm5thumb]

He always whipped out the strap and always shot first

[@VisoredKuzu]

This swells my heart with joy hearing these three talk about their time on the show and outreach they did with the young fans. I couldn't watch lightspeed as a kid but I would without a doubt have loved it.

[@AndreNitroX]

Were your parents against the idea of demons fighting power rangers? Because it is shocking how demonic the show got sometimes

[@VisoredKuzu]

@@AndreNitroX Oh no that wasn't it, it was more like I missed the show when it was airing. Wild Force was my first introduction to Power Rangers though I did watch the previous seasons through CDs my parents would rent out back in the day.

[@AndreNitroX]

@@VisoredKuzu my bad, i had religious parents so i always watched the show when they were out of the house and it was so amazing it got me into the rest of power rangers

[@Dgamer-kq5kt]

I had a VHS tape of Curse of the Cobra; the one when Ryan comes back and gets a living tattoo on his back and the rangers defeat Diabolico with their combined megazord. I used to rewatch that movie tape endless times at my late grandparents’ house. The super train megazord was my personal favorite megazord because I love trains, and it looks awesome.

[@sigxm5thumb]

I had the team up episode between light speed and lost galaxy it was awesome

[@teamsteed1]

​@@sigxm5thumbThe crossover episode focused on Heather and Carter.

[@I_Am_Nique]

Can we talk about how they're aging like wine?!?! Man what a time. I had both morphers and all the megazords....

[@peterw2880]

Love how grounded and down to earth this cast seems

[@mikeserot1410]

They really are awesome people. I've met everyone but Allison MacInnis and they are just fun to talk to and be around.

[@claytonbermea7938]

lightspeed is also one of my favorite power rangers cause it's was one of the first power rangers shows where they weren't just teenagers with aditude they were adults who had real hero jobs. firefighters, doctors, pilots, scuba divers, and rock climbers.

[@everserge]

Not going to lie I feel that and time force. I also love boukenger

[@anthonylai5719]

Man blue was my favorite as an Asian American i loved seeing Asians as a ranger of course trini as first and adam second

[@MetalPharoah]

I thought as a kid he was so incredibly sexy so he was my favorite.

[@GimicPuppet]

I remember see him as an extra on one of the Austin powers movies. He's one of my favorite rangers slong with Johnny Yong Bosch(Adam Parks)

[@gatorcroc7212]

Lightspeed was my favorite as a kid. And now as an adult, and public service worker? This show means even more to me.

[@willprae2992]

Sean is the Chris Evans of Power Rangers

[@tnyclintx2292]

U mean Captain America

[@willprae2992]

@@tnyclintx2292 Well Carter Grayson is the Captain America

[@Tambuzi729]

Lightspeed Rescue is a favorite of mine

[@AndreNitroX]

Likewise I love the idea of power rangers being made by the government like a super soldier program would do

[@alexdesoto1504]

Mine too. Ryan Mitchell is one of my favorite 6th Rangers.

[@austinphillips7385]

Anyone else get a Leon Kennedy vibe from watching Carter on the show?

[@constipatedparker5879]

It's funny that both the actor and Leon during RE2 are about 21 years old.

[@AndreNitroX]

Lightspeed rescue is still my favorite season of power rangers, the characters are great, I love the government/military influence too

[@Teku66]

Alison has such interesting anecdotes lol

[@Nevec7274]

It fills my heart with so much happiness to see the cast was happy and had a great time being in my opinion one of the greatest teams of all time. They are my favorite but to know how happy everyone was is so inspiring

[@SUPGism]

19:30 that is such a precious story

[@Makoto03]

This was incredible. Love seeing behind the scenes info on classic Power Rangers seasons like Lightspeed Rescue.

[@andrewcardone7228]

I can't believe it took me so long but I love how the lights in the background match the ranger colors

[@carlintaylor3229]

Outside of the original movie and reruns of the mighty morphin this was the first power rangers season i ever got into thank goodness i was raised as in early 200s kid used to watch this one every Saturday morning had the action figures and a few of the VHS tapes thank God the cast is still doing well ❤❤

[@Ch00choh]

Incredible to see Carter almost wasn't him. That's truly the goat of all red rangers

[@tetama2agani]

This really marks my childhood I even got a poster of them in my bedroom and it's still intact now but it's in my childhood treasure box❤❤❤

[@Superamp777]

Lightspeed is in my top 10 of power ranger series. This one felt so realistic.

[@ECKohns]

Fun fact: Chad’s actor, Mike Chat, trained Taylor Lautner.

[@jonblankenship5908]

Mike's son talin was in Cobra Kai

[@mikeserot1410]

He also trained Jacqueline Scislowski who played the Yellow Beast Morphers Ranger

[@teamsteed1]

I did not know that.

[@ecbgames238]

I like it Sean does his introduction to the other power rangers and he said like this “I’m Carter Greyson Lightspeed rescue red ranger”

[@JennyBlaze253]

This is my favorite season of all time. Love the characters, the action, the suits! Great to see the chemistry of the cast was so strong, because they were all fantastic!

[@madaskueuchiha]

Wow you can see how enthusiastic Mike is when he talks about watching them morph for the first time, that is pure and genuine excitement

[@RadRedStudios]

man I loved Lightspeed Rescue!

[@AndreNitroX]

Yes one of my all time favorite power rangers team for the cast and the great storylines

[@albertmikesell3186]

SASHA WILLIAMS & ALISON MACINNIS so beautiful back then and NOW!!!!!!!!

[@mikeserot1410]

Sasha is my Ranger crush

[@jyce7375]

Only thing I love about this season is that instead of Teens these rangers were adults that had nurses, firemen ect. They already know how to help people when they were in need. Thats what made this season unique.

[@Wing-Zero-si1eu]

This season of Power Rangers has been one of my favorites since childhood. It’s the first time we get villains & monsters that are originally from Earth. It’s the first time the Ranger’s Morphers, Weapons, & Megazords were made by people who had access to the Morphing Grid. The idea of having an 6th Ranger for the season was a smart way to not upset a lot of fans, despite that there’s no Titanium Ranger in the Sentai version. Carter was a great leader & badass. Dina was very kind & prepared for anything. Chad is a very good swimmer & martial arts expert, I do admire his relationship with that Mermaid. Kelsey is very friendly & a little crazy when it comes to stunts. Joel is cool & hilarious, for a Green Ranger. Mrs.Fairwesthee is both smart & nice to the other Rangers, especially Joel. Captain Mitchell is a good mentor & caring father. Ryan was a great character with a great story arc. Olympus & his mom are great villains that give us nightmares(while they both inspire both Prince Charming & Fairy Godmother from Shrek). Diabolical was an amazing 2nd in command who later redeemed himself, after he, Vypra, & Loki were betrayed by their Queen. The Omega Megazord is my favorite of the season, despite how it was first used to save the Earth from Armageddon. The 2 pt crossover with Lost Galaxy is my favorite episode of the season(sure, y’all think it could’ve been as good as it’s Sentai counterpart, but I like it because of the Megazord showdown with the monstrous Trakeena). And the last 4 episodes that were all edited onto VHS was by far one of the greatest & darkest finales of the series.

[@ChaotixBR]

I wish they got the titanium ranger to the interview, but other than that it's awasome! PS: the sound it a little bit low too...

[@kingofkeys93]

truly i was born in 93 and being a kid with this show. i remember being so in love with it and rewatching it here on youtube does make me very happy today, seeing this makes me so happy they where all such good friends during everything, i wish miss fairweathers actress was here for this and some others but. this is so sweet

[@geoffreyfeinberg9792]

This cast had good chemistry. One of my favorites.

[@nickheah]

sean imo carter was the best leader figure red ranger in the saban era. You made my childhood

[@StarOfHala]

One of my favorite seasons❤

[@sleepybunn8]

I love this team so much! They're so humble and have nothing but nice things to say❤

[@mikeserot1410]

I've met all the core cast members except Allison MacInnis and Monica Lowerens at different Power Morphicon events over the last 8 years. Allison had been on the 2018 guest list but canceled when she broke her foot. Mike Chat didn't have a listing or a table and he showed up on Saturday out of the blue (go figure, right?) to support his student who was being announced as the Beast Morphers Yellow Ranger. I managed to get at least a selfie with him. Sean Cw Johnson, Keith Robinson and Sasha Williams were such amazing people to talk to and get autographs from. Ron Rogge had Captain Mitchell's desk and he was selling it for only $120. I expressed interest in it, and he told me someone else was ready to buy it. I would have taken it had it not been for the fact that I would have had to haul it from the Anaheim Convention Center to my car in the Disney parking lot a good distance away. At PMC 2022, I ran into the guy who bought the desk and found out he was a much more dedicated fan as he had the morpher tattooed on his wrist. I saw him this year and he had the battlizer tattooed on his other wrist! In 2022, Ron let me watch his table at PMC for a while when he wanted to find Jennifer Yen(Vypra). I met Rhett Fisher this year. Best memory though was in 2018 when Sasha photobombed me and a guy dressed as the Red Ranger. She popped up behind us on a table before my girlfriend took the photo. She's my favorite of the cast and my #1 Ranger crush.

[@ToroRosso20]

Any behind the scenes from Lost Galaxy?

[@EvanYoungMusic]

Mike Chat was such a great role model growing up as an Asian American. Watching his martial arts career take off from this show was special.

[@GungFoo_Dad]

Confession time, I was a junior-senior in high school nerding over light speed...honestly dont know what my peers were up to 🤣🤣🤣

[@Bagster321]

I think this further cemented my appreciation for Lightspeed Rescue. I am glad they got positive experiences out of it (knowing how working on Power Rangers can end up).

[@stillwinston3765]

For me Lightspeed is my favourite as an adult. I really enjoy its blue collar, working class hero vibes. The rangers aren't teens or aliens, they're adults with day jobs and they fight demons but also are rescue workers.

[@paulieswalnut]

THANK YOU!!!❤ Please keep this up. All the missing puzzle pieces from my childhood/teenage/....adult years Power Rangers obsession .

[@GrayWolf5000]

Probably my favorite season of power rangers, I used to watch it on repeat as a kid

[@sigxm5thumb]

Carter Grayson is my favorite red ranger he always went head on with the biggest and baddest guys on the battle field and he always escalated situations making him a true fire spirit

[@GungFoo_Dad]

Carter always stood out among the other rangers for me because a lot of the red rangers had a rebellious hot blooded streak. However Carter rather than embodying that same spirit I felt like he was more the red badge of courage and less rebel🤔

[@bryanpalomino6184]

Light speed is definitely one of my top favorite seasons! Loved the show as a kid and still do! I actually got into roller skating because of this show lol

[@WolfBitOdyssey]

Around the time this series was airing on tv, i started to think to myself, “maybe I am getting too old for this.” I was almost 13. But I didn’t grow out of it, just couldn’t get into Wild Force and the Disney Era. I kept up with it, but never watched it religiously after Wild Force.

[@fubuki5hiro764]

Omg i didnt know the pink actress is so cool and hilarious. The blue one is so cute. The red is so hot i wish he had this hairstyle when he was in the show 😍 On the other note I dont remember much of the show since i barely watched it when i was a kid. I remember it roughly. But the premise looks cool because i think the season was on the scarier&darker side. The initiative of original Titanium ranger was cool too. And i personally think they chose the perfect actors/tress for the roles/characters. ❤

[@paulieswalnut]

For any Buffy fans here, Carter is literally like if someone handed Riley Finn a Morpher...and I absolutely LOVE IT!

[@Tasuke]

Awesome! Lightspeed Rescue was always my favorite!

[@reichen609]

Whoa Mike Chat, so charming !!!! He's my new fave now. Haven't seen Lightspeed yet but it's one of my Top 8 PR-Themes! 💙

[@metawolf987]

My god, when this was filmed, Alison had not aged a day since her time on set. Literally the same face with different hair.

[@Seananigans220]

sean cw johnson (and carter grayson by extension) has always been a complete idol to me ever since i saw clips of lightspeed on youtube a long time ago. i strive to be like him some day

[@abrumtherealtor5030]

One of my favorite & best seasons ever. I got a chance to meet 3 of them at PMC 2018. I didnt get a chance to meet Allison or Rhett. Hoping I can at a future PMC.

[@albertmikesell3186]

Loved LIGHTSPEED RESCUE POWER RANGERS!!!!!!!!

[@TheShockVox]

This is way past cool, getting to hear all this stuff afterward. Looking forward to watching the others

[@Jociaoftrades]

Scared of fish? What does that entail? Love this series of PR. I collected almost every zord from this one except the carrier zord. And the cast of rangers are so awesome.

[@nunograca5397]

Out of all the seasons, Lightspeed Rescue was among the best due to the characters. My faves were in order: MMPR until the Thunderzord ending; Time Force; Lightspeed Rescue on par with in Space. The reason is the same for all: character stories and buildup of relationships. Joel and Mrs. Fairweather had a fantastic story! ❤

[@popwallpaper]

Lightspeed rescue really is a cool series

[@davidpumpkinsjr.5108]

I like Alison MacInnis' red hair.❤

[@StarOfHala]

Me too

[@MrSonicHedgehog]

I used to own the Max SolarZord and loved watching this as a kid

[@tresrules16543]

You're telling me Keith Robinson (Joel's actor) wasn't the first choice?! He definitely made the producers regret not making him #1 from the very beginning then. Cause good lord, he played the role amazingly. Probably in my top 10 all time among male Power Rangers

[@Mr.Derogatory316]

Sean would've played very good Superman/Clark Kent in any Superman show or film because he had that height body build and that Christoper Reev type of Face and voice. Heck in one episode of Light Speed he had a disguised similar to Clark Kent as a Daily Planet Reporter with the Eye Glasses and Suit and Tie

[@savagelionLDC]

I grew up on power rangers to this day I want to be a power ranger I just turned 33 monday

[@albertmikesell3186]

MISS FAIRWEATHER so beautiful can see why Joel fell in love with her!!!!!!!

[@Lie4whatt]

PRLR is probably the season best built for a movie. Great story line and easier to portray on screen.

[@Jeby-zn5ee]

I always wear a backpack with just one strap because that was how the Titanium Ranger wore it and 4 year old me had to wear it the same way.

[@muzmalek]

I have a soft spot for PRLR because when watching 9-1-1, Carter and Bobby Nash are so alike - they sound alike too. Hahaha. Chad sounds a hell lot like Chimney, Kelsey a lot like Maddie, Joel gives off Buck vibes.

[@1TutorialBoss]

Anyone think Keith looks a little like Dulé Hill?

[@hyperdrivepics]

I don't think I've seen this. Which DVD release was it on?

[@eugeneenriquez2691]

There should be a documentary of the suit actors that play the grunts. "Yeah, that was me right there getting my ash kicked by the power rangers. Though what was strange was that during that one scene, I kept getting kicked in the balls. Twice... By the Pink Ranger... I had never seen her before, but out of the other grunts, she kept coming right at me. I was like, Yo! Grunt C is right there, why don't you kick him in the nuts? So nowadays I wear a groin guard just for a precaution ya know? Doesn't hurt to be prepared... just in case." 😂😂

Facts

[@WhistleMeThis]

This season has a down-to-earth cast. They seem like people you would know in real life. Red ranger is basically Clark Kent. Pink ranger is so cute and her actress seems genuinely normal and nice. Yellow was a cool chick and a true tomboy. The good old days when women could be tomboys and men didn’t compete in women’s sports.
