   For a kid's show like PR??? Get Real!   
      
   Unless it's considered "valuable" by someone (ie, educational   
   institutions, critics, whatever), it just won't happen. There has been   
   way too much controversy about violence in the past, the production   
   values simply weren't (and still AREN'T) that high, nor are the stories   
   very original. Neither is PR as a whole considered a "classic". It's   
   guys in robot costumes slugging it out with guys in cheesy rubber   
   monster suits, for heaven's sake.   
      
   Don't get me wrong, I'd be third in line to buy season box sets myself,   
   but I'm being realistic about things.
