The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers television show turns 30 this year and in honor of the anniversary, Netflix has announced a reunion special including original cast members Walter E. Jones (Zack), Barbara Goodson (Rita Repulsa), and David Yost (Billy.)
It's no secret that 30 years is a long time, and the actors don't look as young as they once did. Fans quickly began comparing Yost's Blue Ranger to another iconic television character; the one and only Dennis Reynolds.

The crossover between It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fans and Power Rangers fans became pretty obvious as other comparisons began rolling in. It also just proves how old we've all gotten.

All I can say is we've been through a lot. That includes the tragic and untimely deaths of both Jason David Frank and Thuy Trang. So I'll chalk this comparison up as a win for the millennials. Now if we could only make the Golden God an official Power Ranger, we'd be all set.
