I’m pretty gutted. Power Rangers was my show growing up and he was like the most iconic part of it. I would always pretend to be the green ranger

dang
and he was all for the M-rated power rangers videos someone made
and i think he was wanting to be in it or something

Ugh. Gallagher and Kevin Conroy the same day and now Jason not even a full week later… Gen X nostalgia and childhood memories are sure taking a beating during the end of this year…

Rest in Peace Mr. Frank.

What an impact he had on many of us growing up. Big reason why I went into martial arts was because of him and Mortal Kombat.

Not sure about that, I am Gen X and graduated HS in 84 dont remember any of this power rangers crap must be the romper room end of the generation. It looks like really bad tv though so kudos to that.

Of all the original Power Ranger actors though, I think he’s the only one that came back to star in another Power Rangers series as a mentor. All the other actors just appeared to go their own way, or probably because of type casting couldn’t get any other shows.

Dude was only freaking 49

Granted his step daughter died, wife left, hasbro wasn’t gonna keep him around for power rangers. I’d kinda give up too. But a suicide is only an “alleged” situation.
