Comments:
When Joel asked Simon to ask Ms. F out, I also got the impression that he meant for a date with Simon, not with Joel.
As with most Zord introduction episodes, the special effects and action were top notch. The scene with the Omega Megazord standing there as the asteroid blew up around it was awesome.
I don't know about the name "Omega Megazord", it sounds redundant.
Aside from the well done action, there was also well done comedy - the Joel/Ms. F scenes are getting better all the time.
I find it really hard to believe that Simon could really be that smart.
