I found Superhuman Samurai to be a tongue in cheek parody of the genre and in that way superior to Power Rangers. It just didn't take the parody to the extreme that Teenage Tatooed Alien Fighters from Beverly HIlls or that one Animaniacs episode did.

@@RM2011ish Yeah, but if you watch Sentai or Gridman (both of which Shout TV have or had) you'll see 'based on a Japanese show' is only a very loose term. Unlike Ultraman which tried to remain as faithful as possible to the source material, Power Rangers and Superhuman Samurai basically took the fight scenes and crafted their own stories. It is like saying Japanese Spider-Man is based on the comics by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. (They aren't.)

What really happened to the Cosby Mysteries was the simple fact that The Simpsons utterly destroyed Cosby's last show The Cosby Show. As well as an ongoing fight with Eddie Murphy. As well as ongoing flops in theaters Cosby started in that pretty much showed the end of Cosby's fame at the time. Cosby did try one more thing with a show called Cosby that lasted 4 seasons, but it never got the high ratings that The Cosby Show once had.

I have fond fond memories of Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad. Watched the heck out of it. It actually originated from a Japanese Sentai series called Hyper Agent Gridman, which eventually spunoff into an action packed anime series (SSSS.Gridman and Dynazenon, plus a movie) which were all quite awesome. Funny enough Syber Squad is quite faithful to the original concept of Gridman, only everything was Americanized with a Saved by the Bell kinda vibe. You could argue the SSSS in the anime titles came from Syber Squad.

To be fair, I barely paid attention to the human parts, was mostly waiting for the monster of the episode to show up and then get to see the big fights in cyber space. I also remember Legend being pretty alright, nothing super amazing just like, yeah if it's on I'mma watch it sort of thing. The rest of the shows, can't say I was super familiar with any of them, I think I caught some of AJ's Time Travelers once and immediately changed the channel, lol.

All American Girl really messed up by making it a regular book store instead of the adult book store she actually grew up in. Also I think she was dating Tarantino at the time.

Syber Squad managed to get more episodes than it's source material so it has that going for it (they re-used Japanese footage from previous episodes. Gridman was popular in Japan and was even extended beyond what it was supposed to run but ultimately got canceled due to production issues and Tsubaraya burning a butt load of money on Ultraman the Ultimate Hero)

Well, this time surprisingly dad's VHS collection didn't help, as I can't say I'm familiar with any of these shows. Only Hardy Boyz I know about in 1995 was Matt and Jeff in WWF when they were the doormen for the King of the Ring PPV. A bit of wrestling trivia for you there. 😉 However, found a good amount of them on KZbin, so would have those to check out. Also, noticed a couple of times, mainly because I was using it to double check the names, the name tag on the side was off saying the series that you featured previously. Anyways, enjoyed this, thank you.

Superhuman Samurai Cyber Squad was an absolute favorite of mine. I owned a bunch of the toys, which I still think are amazing. Also, why did every single boy in the 90's have that awful haircut? You know the one.

Are you talking about the hair do that looks like they just woke up and got out of bed but didn't brush or comb their hair and then just put hair gel in without shaping it, leaving it looking spiky on top and sloppy on the sides? Yeah I know that hair style. You can blame Buffy The Vampire Slayer for that. David Boreanaz started that look when he played the good vampire Angel on the series. Back in the late 1990s, all of the white guys in teen movies had that look. From Josh Hartnett in the Faculty to Brendan Fehr in Roswell to Jimmy Fallon on Saturday Night Live. Lol! That look lasted from 1997 to about 2004. So it was seven years of guys 17 to 24 looking like they they were unkept and didn't know anything about personal grooming, lol! 😂

Matt and Jeff's weekly antics on RAW can be watched as the spiritual successor to what became of the Hardy Boys following the closure of their detective agency.

LOL! Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad was actually pretty enjoyable. Goofy, but not as annoyingly serious as VR Troopers. Both were also better than most of modern TV.

I only remember Superhuman Samurai Fighter Squad because Troy Slaten from "Parker Lewis Can't Lose" was in it, and I vaguely remember "Legend" because of John De Lancie (Q) being in it! I kinda/sorta remember The Boys are Back because of Hal Linden, but the premise reminds me of "Empty Nest" except with guys instead of girls. For the most part, a lot of these shows don't ring a bell for me (and I was 20 in 1995).

The fun thing od Samurai Syber Squad is that Japan loves it so much that it's canon to SSSS Gridman. It's so great that Japan loved it. Kinda like how we love Samurai Pizza Cats and it bombed in Japan.

I remember The Cosby Mysteries vividly [shudder], and am pretty sure I saw a few episodes of All-American Girl. That one seemed to have been written by someone who has never been anywhere in Asia, never eaten in a Korean restaurant, and never listened to the band, Asia.
