    “Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills” Was a Real TV Show in the 90s

    This is another one of those times we’re left scratching our heads, asking “what the absolute heck is this?!?” Someone, somewhere, thought “Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills” was a good idea for a real, honest to goodness tv series as an answer to “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.”

    YUP, this was totally a real show, you guys.

    Animation studio DIC had a pretty heated rivalry with Saban, which resulted in a few Power Ranger knockoff attempts, like “Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters,” and “Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad.” 


    And, some enterprising person added the entire first episode to Youtube, which you can watch here.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
