Wait, "Mighty Moshin' Emo Rangers" actually got picked up?

To air at some point on US MTV?

And Disney hasn't sued yet? If anything, bits of the theme song are obviously lifted from the MMPR theme... of course, if Disney actually has the rights to that song (which, as "Once A Ranger" proved, may actually be suspect)...

They don't own tokosatsu, dood.

Oh my God.

That's genius.

It's called "parody", which is protected under the first amendment.

They effectively own Super Sentai everywhere but Japan, though.

Okay, the show is currently airing on MTV UK and is online at MTV UK's website. Can anyone who lives there tells us how it is?

Seriously, though, MTV has probably been interested in this show ever since they did that news piece. It's cool that we may be getting this.

Oh my God, I would watch this in a heart beat, unquestionably.

[Funkatron]

it is available legally online. It's written in the contract for the show, since it was an internet thing first. Their myspace page should have links or you can try the usual places.

The irony is I was just reading the wiki page for them today.

That's awesome. I never would have expected such an off-beat parody to get picked up by a broadcast network.
