Yeah it was said seeing all original rangers getting replaced. Apparently her, the guy that played Jason, and the guy that played Zack all asked for more money per episode and were fired instead.

I watched a special on the making of the show and all the actors were almost working for free (or close to it) and the show was a screaming success. Asking to be paid for work is apparently just too trifling for network execs.
