The original Power Rangers came onto the scene in 1993 and were oddly entertaining enough to last for 16 years. The show featured laughable fight scenes and terrible special effects, but spandex, new colors, and the teenage superhero fantasy kept the show going.
Since starring in a kid’s hit series isn’t exactly a sign of future success, let’s take a look at what became of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
The Pink Ranger -Amy Jo Johnson

The Yellow Ranger - Thuy Trang

The Red Ranger - Austin St. John

Nowadays, he’s working in DC as a paramedic and has aged a bit:
The Black Ranger - Walter Jones

After many more forgettable roles, he dropped acting and put his focus on salsa dancing. According to his website, he was the 2004 Mayan World Salsa champion. Bravo! Jones was in the news recently after being pulled over for DUI, leading to this headline: Mighty Drunken Power Ranger.
Wayne Brady hates when I impersonate him
The Blue Ranger - David Yost
David stuck around longer than most, lasting on the show until 1996, when the producers pretty much forced him out by taking away his character’s powers.
After that, the only notable gigs he’s reeled in are production roles for Temptation Island and You Are What You Eat. Other than that, no one on the internet seems to know where David Yost is.
The White Ranger - Jason David Frank

Frank is the one person who had no problem with making a career out of Power Rangers. He appeared in over 240 episodes and holds the record for most ninja outfit changes - green, white, red, and black.
After finally hanging up the tights, he didn’t do much besides land the starring role in the John Stewart biopic Fall Guy. No, not that Jon Stewart. John Stewart, the (apparently) famous stuntman. After that straight-to-DVD failure, he went on run a number of karate schools while reminding people of his 6th degree black belt. His most recent Wikipedia-worthy event was at the 2009 Anime Festival in Orlando, where he signed a male fan’s chest. Oh, to be a celebrity.
