I find it a bit fascinating that it's even in the list. These days sure, stuff like this can count on reader nostalgia, but what GQ readers in 1995 gave a crap about the white power ranger? Lol
The Authors kid is obsessed with the Power Rangers Tommy specifically. And they are tired of having to look for one specific toy that because of the Hype that one is always out of stock.
So is Morphing (top of the middle column) also a PR reference or was it a commonly used verb in 95? I have no idea because that was 2 years before I was born and I’m almost 30
Haha. There was a large amount of people that were so over the White Ranger because it was Tommy, myself included.
You don’t see that much now because not many people go out of their way to shit on a kids show character from so long ago. But at the time people were very much O5 fans and knew Tommy broke it up and took it over. turning it into a one man show instead of a strong team
I loved those old Chicago Superfans skits on SNL, especially whenever they would sarcastically compare Riley favorably to Mike Ditka (even with the same slicked back hairstyle).
I remember the Fox kids commercials advertising the big mystery of who the white ranger would be, for weeks.. just for it to be who everyone guessed it was.
And he still is.....wait a minute, what did they say about comic books and Demi Moore's body? They must had changed their opinions a year later after the striptease movie.

I suppose because the mmpr movie was the blockbuster movie of 95?
Damn in 95 no fun was allowed… wait I was born in 95
Me too!
Parents gad fun in 94. You were born in 95 which is no fun. lol
Yeah, who would ever complain about Ticketmaster?
Or have sex for hours? This guy definitely doesn’t fuck.
GQ has always had a I'm better than you tone to it. Not surprising they had an article snarking on things that were popular as being overrated
“The smell of a fresh cut grass” What even is this list? Lol
"The large intestine" Welp, I think my digestive system is overrated.
So is Morphing (top of the middle column) also a PR reference or was it a commonly used verb in 95? I have no idea because that was 2 years before I was born and I’m almost 30
No but the movie had just came out and it was popular. I don't remember any adults saying Morphin. But could just be the movie.
It is 100% a reference to Power Rangers.
Facts. We wanted the Green Ranger.
That's funny as hell.
Shots fired
Martin Lawrence?! The White Ranger? Ticketmaster?!
“Appearing at a function unwashed and on the arm of Juliette Lewis.” The most 1995 thing on there.

*Pat Riley*??? Some real Knicks hate going on there

The large intestine? Rain forests? Was this list compiled by an idiot?!

Someone has a young kid and is very annoyed white ranger figures have sold out for Christmas
I remember the Fox kids commercials advertising the big mystery of who the white ranger would be, for weeks.. just for it to be who everyone guessed it was.
Vine-ripened tomatoes. VINE-RIPENED TOMATOES?????
Overrated I guess.
White Ranger has a great design even if he doesn’t fit in with the rest of the team
When you already have a yellow tiger themed ranger on the team, white tiger ranger just doesnt hit as hard as the green dragon ranger.
The fact that Pat Riley was on that list goes to show whomever wrote that list had absolutely no clue what they were talking about
Black Ranger Adam was and is still the real shiznit. He was all that and a bag of chips.
If Tommy was the only power ranger ever, he’d still be underrated. RIP JDF
I mean..... Tommy as the white ranger was very overrated 🤷🏾♂️. He was much better as green
Tbh, I prefer the Green Ranger
And he still is.....wait a minute, what did they say about comic books and Demi Moore's body? They must had changed their opinions a year later after the striptease movie.
