Power Rangers Time Force is a television series and the eighth entry of the Power Rangers franchise, based on the 24th Super Sentai series Mirai Sentai Timeranger, running for 40 half-hour episodes from February to November 2001.[1] [2] It was the last season to be distributed by Saban Entertainment.
Originally, a Time Force film was planned,[3] but ultimately went unproduced in light of the commercial failure of and the purchase of the franchise by Disney. However, Buena Vista Home Entertainment did release the series' final four episodes as a film-length home video in 2002 entitled The End of Time. A video game based on the series was released in November 2001 for PlayStation, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance.
When a gang of mutant criminals led by the powerful Ransik escapes from 3000 to 2001, a group of officers from the Time Force law enforcement agency -- Jen Scotts, Lucas Kendall, Trip, and Katie Walker -- pursue them through time. To assist them, they recruit a socialite named Wes Collins to help them unlock their powers and become Power Rangers to stop Ransik's gang. Along the way, Wes' father Mr. Collins forms the Silver Guardians private security team to fight back against the mutants, leading to Silver Guardian and Wes' estranged classmate Eric Meyers obtaining Time Force technology and becoming the Quantum Ranger.
