[edit] Turbo

TJ as the Red Turbo Ranger

While en route to the fictitious city of Angel Grove, California, T.J. fell victim to an attack by the villain Divatox. Because of his bravery and his assistance in saving others (including an unmorphed Power Ranger), he was hand-picked to be the successor to Tommy Oliver in forming the new team of Turbo Power Rangers as the second Red Turbo Ranger. The team consisted of himself, Ashley Hammond, Carlos Vallerte, Cassie Chan, along with current Blue Ranger Justin Stewart.

Although he was a capable team leader, he ended up having one of the worst final showings of any Red Ranger. The end of the series saw the destruction of two Megazords, one of which was set to self-destruct per his order in a failed attempt to destroy a foe, the loss of two vehicles, and finally the loss of the Turbo Ranger powers because Divatox had found and destroyed the Power Chamber, destroying the Turbo Powers with them.

[edit] In Space

TJ as the Blue Space Ranger

Making his way into space to pursue Divatox along with Ashley, Carlos, Cassie and Alpha 6, he met Andros, the Red Space Ranger from a distant planet. Although not initially receptive of their presence, Andros would later give the four remaining Turbo Power Rangers new powers that matched his own, and T.J. would become the Blue Space Ranger and second in command of the team, and in turn gave leadership of the team to Andros, due to himself being unfamiliar with outer space. The Rangers spent this time searching for the kidnapped Zordon and protecting Earth from Astronema. During the course of the series, T.J suffered at least two serious head injuries. The first incident was when he was attacked by Darkliptor (a being that was a merging of Ecliptor and Darkonda), which left him with temporary amnesia. The second occurred when Psycho Blue nearly killed him, placing him in the intensive care unit aboard the Astro Megaship. He would remain the Blue Space Ranger for the remainder of the series and would participate in the final Battle against the United Alliance of Evil.

T.J. later followed Andros and the the other Space Rangers to Terra Venture to help the Lost Galaxy Power Rangers in dealing with the Psycho Rangers. He and the other Rangers help destroy the five Psycho Rangers for good; though it cost them the life of Kendrix Morgan, the Pink Galaxy Ranger.

[edit] Forever Red

T.J. joined Andros in following the remnants of the Machine Empire to the moon in their plot to use Serpentera to destroy the Earth. In this mission, T.J. once again donned the Red Turbo Ranger powers. He teamed up with Leo Corbett to destroy Automon. It's assumed that he got his Red Turbo Powers From Lightning Cruiser, Similar to how Justin got his Powers Back From Storm Blaster.

[edit] Trivia

  • T.J. was originally going to be the second Green Turbo Ranger instead of Carlos Vallerte.
  • T.J. became the first Black Red Ranger and the first Black team leader. Successive Black male Red Rangers are Jack Landors from Power Rangers SPD and Scott Truman from Power Rangers RPM.
  • It's not explained how T.J. got his Red Turbo Ranger powers again, but it can be assumed that since Justin got his morpher from Storm Blaster, T.J. may have gotten his from Lightning Cruiser, although this remains unconfirmed.

T.J is also the first ranger to be bald followed by Damon Henderson from Lost Galaxy and Joel Rawlings from Lightspeed Rescue.
