Re: Why didn't Disney hire Saban?
They just kept it going for a year and quietly canceled it to save money. Doug and Ann convinced Disney to keep the show going by moving to New Zealand, to save on production costs.

I think people like Sloan and Lynn were more influential than Saban.

Re: Why didn't Disney hire Saban?
Saban just believed in the concept if combining Super Sentai footage with American Civilian scenes. He is proud of the brand, based on how he went to the trouble to buy it back. But he isn't a creative guru.

Re: Why didn't Disney hire Saban?
The reality is there are many names that have shepherded the series creatively. Saban is not really one of them. But he gets credit for coming up with the idea of the show and funding it. Not to mention funding a new company to buy it back once Disney cancellee the series.

Re: Why didn't Disney hire Saban?
I get the impression that Saban regretted not making PR excluded from the Saban Entertainment sale. Given he would have sold everything else, I think PR would have closed down for awhile after one more year of Wild Force. There would have been a rival though.

Re: Why didn't Disney hire Saban?
I do wonder if Time Force would have been it for awhile. Given the sale happened during post production. Would Wild Force have just remained on Fox all year? Or would it have been scrapped entirely?

Re: Why didn't Disney hire Saban?
It all depends if Fox Kids wanted the whole season. We know Wild Force finished up on ABC Kids and Fox Kids itself closed down soon after perhaps Saban would have sold WF's second half to Fox Box and possibly future seasons.

Wild Force would have finished on Fox Box. American Sentai would then be replaced by dubbed Super Sentai. Fox Box did buy a dubbed version of Ultraman Tiga.
