Big Bad Beetleborgs

Big Bad Beetlebogs. I can't talk about this show without mentioning that this was VERY similar to Power Rangers. They were around about the same time. Beetleborgs aired on September 7, 1996. Power Rangers aired on August 28, 1993.





The only real difference in the shows were that the Beetleborgs were created by Flabber, who in a way was like a genie. The kids who awaken him are granted one wish. There wish of course was to become their favorite Comic Book heroes; The Beetleborgs.Except with the wish it also let loose the Beetleborgs' enemies too. The show was about 3 kids; Jo, Drew and Roland. Drew is the blue 'stinger' Beetleborg, Roland the green hunter beetle, and Jo was the red striker beetleborg.

This is Flabber. Kind of looks like Jay Leno looking back at it...He lives in a haunted house with some monsters, who help out the Beetleborgs from time to time.

I personally liked the Power Rangers better, but I liked the concept of them becoming Bug/Insect heroes.Such as a Firefly, Dragonfly, Butterfly, and a cicada.

I watched the first two episodes on YouTube. It's super cheesy!, but as I kid I didn't think so at the time. It actually only aired for two seasons as well.
