Kimberly "Kim" Ann Hart is the first Pink Ranger of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in the 'modern era'. She later became the first Pink Ninja Ranger of the Ninja Rangers, later giving her powers as Pink Ranger to Kat for her departure from the Mighty Morphin team.

During the live-action TV series, she has temporarily assumed the form of the Blue Ranger.

Retroactively, she is also referred to as the Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger or Pink Mighty Morphin Ranger, though these are in reference to the show, as opposed to proper labels.

In Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie, Kimberly also returned helping the Turbo Rangers against Divatox, her crew and Maligore.

Many years later, during the events of Power Rangers Beast Morphers Season 2, Kimberly responded to her old teammate Jason's signal, forms part of the Legendary Dino Rangers army against Goldar Maximus and his Army of Foot Soldiers.

Several years later, having formed her own family with Skull (which ultimately didn't work out), Kimberly returned in Power Rangers: Future Force, forming part of the time-traveling Future Rangers to help an alternate Zordon and his Forces defeat the Evil Space Aliens of his time.

Shortly afterwards, Kimberly is the sole survivor of an attack on the Morphin Nexus that claims the lives of Jason Lee Scott and Tommy Oliver, but is left both severely injured and traumatized by the ordeal. Several months of physical therapy later, Kimberly returns to reclaim her powers in time for the final battle against Lokar's Grand Alliance of Evil before retiring from being a Ranger once and for all.

History[]

Early Life[]

Kimberly was relatively new to Angel Grove, as she moved to the city only a few weeks before Rita's attack and at first is unable to get along with her classmates. She was called the "Salad Girl" by Zack and Trini in the early days of school due to an incident where she complained about a salad at a fancy restaurant Zack worked at, who was then fired by the manager when Kimberly's parents complained about "the help" even though Zack was just a busser. She harbored a little resentment of the move to Angel Grove, as she left all her old friends behind and was unfamiliar with her new surroundings such as Angel Grove High, even going so far as to state she hated the city. Making things worse was the constant arguing of her parents, their eventual divorce and seeing her father preparing to marry another woman named Kelly whom Kimberly does not get along with.

Becoming a Ranger[]

Kimberly was one of the original five Power Rangers chosen by Zordon when Rita Repulsa attacked Earth following her release from "The Space Dumpster". Her four teammates were coincidentally her closest friends; Jason Lee Scott, Zack Taylor, Billy Cranston and Trini Kwan. Kimberly received the Pterodactyl Power Coin and the Pterodactyl Dinozord, thus becoming the Pink Mighty Morphin Power Ranger. She was a capable gymnast and would later show that she also has some musical and artistic talent. Day of the Dumpster

When they are not saving the world, teenagers with attitudes chosen by Zordon gather at the Angel Grove Youth Center. Trini updates Alpha 5 with the language of the year 1993. Far away, Dr. Carver and Dr. Kenyon discover a new civilization and the largest statue ever built in ancient America. Unintentionally, Dr. Carver activates the terrible cross between monster and robot that attacks the excavation site. Back at the Youth Center, Billy creates a device with internet access when everyone sees the attack on TV. In the territory of the attack, summoning the Dinozords, the Power Rangers fight against a terrible monster. Struck by the lightning of the stone giant, the Rangers lose communication with Zordon and have their pieces exchanged makes it difficult in battle. With the help of Alpha 5, the exchange effect was reversed and the Rangers, winning the battle and returning the giant to its location.Rita Repulsa's Attitude Adjustment Kimberly and her friends in the form of Power Rangers defeat Korruptor using Dino Megazord. Going Green

Skull, one of the local bullies, had a crush on her until she became involved with Tommy Oliver. However, in Season 3, it is shown that Skull still had some lingering feelings for Kimberly when she was placed under a spell that made her—albeit briefly—reject Tommy. The Potion Notion

Lord Zedd once wanted Kimberly to be his queen before marrying Rita, and ordered Goldar to capture and train her into being his queen, but the magic dust didn't work and she retained her memories as a Ranger; she then did a Rita impression to fool her captors and give Billy and Trini enough time to rescue her from her "training". Beauty and the Beast

She is a romantic individual, beginning her tenure in a budding relationship with Matthew Cook and later developing a relationship with Tommy Oliver. Her mother and father divorced at some point before the main series and, though she initially wanted them to reconcile, her mother remarried and moved to Paris and then to St. Moineau, France. A Brush with Destiny

Kim Chosen

Zordon chooses Kimberly to become the Pink Ranger.

All the members of the team possessed unique fighting styles. She used a blend of gymnastic maneuvers followed by punches, elbows, and kicks. She often used the environment around her as a springboard for her attacks. Kimberly was often called upon to finish off monsters with physically visible weaknesses such as the Terror Toad's second mouth once he had been weakened by losing his horn and the Snizzard’s golden apple on top of its head.

Season 3[]

When Rito Revolto destroys the Thunderzords, Kimberly and the other Rangers travel to the Desert of Despair and gain new powers from the creator of the Power Coins, Ninjor. Kimberly becomes the Pink Ninja Ranger, harnessing the spirit of the crane and controlling the Pink Crane Ninjazord. She later moves in with Aisha's family when her mother becomes engaged to a painter and moves to France; Zedd creates a monster, Artistmole, from Kimberly's nightmares about her mother's fiancee, but Kimberly defeats it.

Kim as the Pink Ninja Ranger.

Kimberly was replaced by Katherine Hillard. The veteran Ranger was targeted for elimination when Katherine (aka "Kat"), under Rita's spell, stole her power coin, granting her access to the Ninjazords. The coin being in the hands of evil also served to drain Kimberly of her life force as the Ninja Powers were linked directly to the life of the Ranger, unlike the Dinosaur-based power set. To take advantage of this, Rita launched a campaign to keep Kim overexerted in battle, knowing that, at the same time, she was focusing all of her personal time to gymnastics training for the Pan Global Games. On one occasion, Kimberly trained late at Ernie's Gym and Juice Bar after hours and, depleted, she fell from atop the balance beam. She is discovered unconscious on the floor by Katherine, overriding the evil spell she is under. Katherine calls the hospital and Kimberly is hospitalized. She recovered and later Katherine manages to give Kimberly her power coin back. However, Kimberly almost abandoned her gymnastics training after that, until she is encouraged to go back to it.

Kim Leaves

Kimberly entrusts her powers to Katherine.

In a turn of events, Katherine took a dramatic approach to inspiring Kimberly to pursue gymnastics again by revealing to Kimberly a scrapbook of her own athletic achievements in the sport of high diving. After hitting her head on the board, she gave up on the sport, just short of her entrance into the Olympics. Katherine lured Kimberly to a local pool where she arrived just in time to see Katherine perform a fearful, yet expert high dive for the first time in years. This, and Zordon's declaration that her recruitment as a Ranger is over, prompts Kimberly to leave in order to train full-time with Gunthar Schmidt for the Pan Global Games in Florida. She selects Katherine as her replacement. A Different Shade of Pink

Zeo[]

Tommy was Kimberly's boyfriend and the two shared many dates and tender moments. Unfortunately, about a year later, via a letter, Kimberly recounts to Tommy, her time in Florida and how good she's training for the competitions. She reveals that she found someone else in Florida whom she describes as a good person and he is her life love, and politely breaks up with him.

When Tommy was depressed by the letter, Tommy remembered his good moments years ago, when he was with Kimberly.

Later, Tommy, Billy, and Kat decided to Ski in the snow, Billy helps Tommy move on from Kimberly, and spend time with friends on the weekends. When Heather spends time with Tommy, Heather mentions to him from Kat and Billy about Kimberly. She understands what Tommy went through and that there was something special between him and Kimberly.

After the Zeo Rangers apparently defeated Defoliator, when Kat finds Tommy training, Billy mentions that Kimberly's "letter thing" still bothers him. There's No Business Like Snow Business, Part II

Jason and Kimberly captured

Jason and Kimberly captured by Divatox.

Some time later, after discovering that her boyfriend had be cheating on her with one of her friends in Florida and breaking up with him as a result, Kimberly and Jason returned to Angel Grove to surprise their ex-teammates and help with the children's shelter. The two ex-Rangers spent some time together, where mutual feelings of heartbreak lead them to briefly start dating. They two would later break up after realizing that their feelings for one another weren't real and they were better as friends. After some work, Kimberly and Jason decided to relax and went scuba diving together. While they were exploring the ocean they are captured by the evil pirate queen Divatox. They were to be sacrificed to Divatox's fiancee Maligore.

Jason originally tried to escape the bilge with Kimberly, as well as their neighboring cellmates Bulk and Skull, but when her turn came to leave the ship, her shirt was stuck on one of the bolts. Jason helped get her unstuck and Kimberly was able to escape, though Jason would be trapped inside shortly after when Divatox discovered the flooding from the bilge.

Kimberly reached the island of Muiranthias and lay exhausted on the beach from her recent escape. When she regained consciousness, she was found by the Malachians and she was quickly tied with rope to a wooden slab. The Malachians took the captured Kimberly to Maligore's temple, where she discovered Divatox, her forces and her captives had already made it there.

Kim&JasonSacrifice

Kim and Jason as a sacrifice for Maligore's rising.

When the time of the sacrifice came near, Jason and Kimberly were tied together and their wrists chained to a rope that would lower them into the volcano. Before they could be lowered in, the Turbo Rangers arrived and they worked hard to prevent them from being lowered into the volcano. Despite the Rangers' best efforts to save their friends, Jason and Kimberly were ultimately lowered into the volcano by Rygog, much to the pleasure of Divatox. With the sacrifice complete, Kimberly and Jason reappeared in a burst of flames onto the volcano's edge, both under the control of Maligore with their eyes glowing red. After snapping their handcuffs with their bare hands, the two evil ex-Rangers followed Divatox's command to destroy the intruders and they began to assault the Rangers.

TanyaVsKimTurbo

Tanya briefly struggling against a possessed Kimberly.

After briefly fighting off the Green and Yellow Turbo Rangers, Kimberly set her sights on the Pink Turbo Ranger and, despite Kat's please to fight the evil inside her the way Kat did when she was under Rita's control, Kim started to attack her Pink Ranger successor.

Kim&KatTurbo

A possessed Kim with Kat.

Tommy was deeply troubled by this and he intervened, even taking off his helmet in an attempt to get Kimberly to remember him. However, when Kat said they were her friends, Kimberly merely laughed remarking that she had no friends and she watched on as Tommy was attacked by Jason. While Jason began attacking Tommy, Kimberly told Kat that "pink is out" and she knocked the Pink Turbo Ranger back with a kick to the stomach.

Jason and Kimberly free from Maligore's control

Kim thanking Jason recently freed from a Piranhatron.

After kicking away Tanya the Yellow Turbo Ranger during a short struggle, Kimberly saw that Jason had finally overpowered Tommy and had him held by the throat at the edge of the volcanic pit. Kimberly watched with great pleasure, urging him to throw Tommy into the pit. However, Lerigot and Lara were watching nearby and after noticing Kimberly, the Liarians used their magic on Kimberly and her eyes returned to their normal color as she was cured of the evil spell. After Tommy, in an attempt to save himself, inadvertently caused Jason to fall over the edge, Kimberly ran to Tommy's side to help Jason back out of the flames, reaffirming her affiliation with Tommy and the forces of good.

TurboMovieEnding

Kimberly happy for Jason and her friends winning the check on the tournament.

Having fought off the Piranhatrons, Kimberly and Jason helped the Liarians out of the volcano and, after the Turbo Megazord had destroyed Maligore, the Rangers helped them aboard the Turbo Megazord's cockpit to leave Muiranthias. Later, Kimberly was seated next to Ernie among the spectators of the Martial Arts Competition in the film's finale. After Tommy, Adam, and Jason won the martial arts match, she can be seen holding Jason's hands and cheering her friends as they're awarded the check to save the children's shelter. Turbo A Power Rangers Movie

Winning Pan Global Gold[]

Shortly afterwards, Kimberly returned to her training with Gunthar Schmidt in Florida. Her hard work would pay off when she won a gold medal at the Pan Global Games. Sometime shortly afterwards, she would meet Skull (who had recently been left behind by Bulk and Professor Phenomenus and was now pursuing a career as a professional piano player) again and, despite previously rejecting him romantically in the past, would opt to pursue a relationship with him that would lead to them getting married and having two children: a son named Spike and a daughter named Eugenia.

Shrunken Rangers (1)

Kimberly along with Jason and Tommy are captured by Robo Rita

One year later, Kim was present at Trini's grave with Tommy, Jason and Billy paying their respects at Angel Grove Cemetery when Robo-Rita returned with Robo-Snizzard and Robo-Minotaur. They quickly morphed but were overpowered by Snizzard's new power, which incapacitated them and enabled Rita to miniaturize and capture all but Billy and Zack. With Kim captured with the others and their powers being slowly drained by Robo-Rita's time device, Kat is recruited to reclaim the power of the Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger, using a Proxy version of Kim's Pterodactyl Coin.

In the end, they are saved thanks to Trini's daughter Minh Kwan, and the remaining Mighty Morphin Rangers, at which point Aisha and Adam take the shrunken Rangers to Aquitar to get them turned back to normal. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always

Future Force[]

Sometime later, she, Tommy, and Jason return from Aquitar to find that their old friend Ernie had died and left to Jason, Tommy, and Zack the Youth Center, which Ernie had recently bought back from the people who owned it during "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always". Kimberly is saddened because she wasn't even able to attend her old friend's funeral because she was recovering on Aquitar at the time. Along with Jason, Zack, Billy, Tommy, Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Kat, Tanya, Justin, T.J., Carlos, Ashley, Cassie, Andros, Zhane, Karone, Minh and Zordon's son, Zoltar, Kimberly attended a 25th anniversary memorial service at the ruins of the old Power Chamber to commemorate Zordon's memory.

After paying their respects, Jason, Zack, Billy, Kimberly, Tommy, Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Kat, Andros, Karone, Minh, and Zoltar head back to the Command Center built beneath Cranston Technologies, where Billy briefs everyone on his plan to travel back in time using the time machine he built out of the original Rad Bug to prevent Zordon's death and give him a device called the Universal Purifier to ensure that Zordon's sacrifice would be unnecessary. Billy then asks for four volunteers, as Tommy had already volunteered before the briefing. After Jason volunteers, Kimberly is the second to volunteer, followed shortly by Andros and Zoltar. They five then travel back in time in the Rad Bug, which malfunctions, sending them back in time to an unknown point in time.

After Tommy tentatively identifies the time period as the late Neolithic Era based on the wild life, Jason spots a mysterious spacecraft. The five are soon teleported aboard the spacecraft. Upon arriving on what appears to be the alien craft's bridge, the five are surprised to meet Zordon, who has not been trapped in a time warp yet. Zordon is alarmed by the means that they traveled back in time because unstable time machines could cause dangerous disruptions to the space-time continuum just by being used but is none-the-less impressed that their friend could build a working one as very few alien civilizations are technologically advanced enough to build them. Zordon then welcomes them aboard his spaceship, the Starcarrier, and introduces them to his elite soldiers Trey of Triforia, Zorion, and Alpha 1 (who is also his assistant). Zordon urges them to stay aboard the Starcarrier and avoid interacting with the locals of planet Earth at that time to prevent disrupting the timeline unnecessarily while Alpha 1 works on fixing any possible flaws in their time machine's designs to prevent disruptions.

Just as the five are settling in and planning their next move, they are attacked by Goldar, Silverback, Darkonda (who along with Silverback, Kimberly fails to recognize though unlike Silverback, Andros is able to identify as Darkonda), Scorpina, Mordant (who Zoltar mentions having fought before), and a large number of Putty Patrollers. Kimberly, Jason, Tommy, Zoltar, and Andros morph into the Pink, Red, Green, and Gray Rangers and Red Space Ranger to fight them. However, wracked with self-doubt following her capture by Robo-Rita, Kimberly and her friends are less effective then usual and Goldar springs an ambush involving Knasty Knight and Eye Guy. The five are captured and taken to the Dark Dimension where Goldar lets it slip that Lord Zedd himself is aware of them and ordered there capture in hopes that they may be of use to his plans. Fortunately, Zordon arrives with Trey and Zorion to rescue them.

Zordon, sensing the doubts of Kimberly and her friends, reminds them of why they were chosen by his counterpart in the first place, restoring their self-confidence. Zordon reveals that Rita Repulsa alone was winning the war with Zordon and his forces and that he was planning to imprison her in a dumpster but now worries that Lord Zedd's presence on the moon could complicate this plan. Feeling guilty that their arrival somehow attracted Zedd's attention, Kimberly, along with Jason, Tommy, Zoltar, and Andros, volunteer to lead an attack on the Moon Palace to keep Zedd buisy and once again morph. The attack goes awry from the beginning as Zedd clearly anticipated such an attack. Fortunately Zordon upon seeing that the Future Rangers wouldn't get the chance to engage Zedd opts to take Trey and Zorion in an effort to drive Zedd from the moon before dealing with Rita himself.

A great battle commences where Kimberly battles Scorpina mostly one-on-one but with Zoltar occasionally assisting her. Kimberly initially struggles against Scorpina, but then she remembers her battle with the Terror Toad and fully regains her self-confidence and manages to overcome Scorpina before seemingly finishing her off with her Power Bow. Kimberly, Zoltar, and Andros then learn from Zordon, who contacts them telepathically, that Rita had left her fight with Zordon. Kimberly surmises that Rita was preparing to trap Zordon in a time warp, and takes Zoltar and Andros to head her off in Zedd's throne room. They are soon joined by Jason and Tommy and together the five Rangers battle Rita Repulsa herself and stop her, creating an entirely new timeline in the process.

After saying their farewells to Zordon, who reveals that they didn't do any harm to the timeline and merely created a separate timeline and informs them of a great power on the distant planet of Phaedos that can be used to resurrect his counterpart, and company Kimberly, along with Jason, Tommy, Zoltar, and Andros return to their own time. When Jason announces that he had to go on an important journey that could not be delayed and bids farewell to Billy, Kimberly offers to accompany her old friend on his journey. Thus Jason and Kimberly depart to parts unknown. Power Rangers: Future Force

Cosmic Fury[]

During Lord Zedd's takeover of Earth, multiple Ranger teams were captured and imprisoned. When the Cosmic Fury team returned for a counter attack, Billy helped to free his team, including Kimberly.

Back to Action[]

Kimberly is at the rebuilt Power Chamber, now known as the Morphin Nexus, along with Jason and Tommy while Billy works on restoring Zordon. Tommy asks Billy if he's 100% certain that it is Zordon he's bringing back as they don't want a repeat of the Robo-Rita incident. During Billy and Tommy's conversation, Kimberly and Jason talk about Kimberly's recent divorce, Jason's reconciliation with his old girlfriend Emily, and most notably how Kimberly confides in Jason that, even decades later, she still feels guilty for how she ended things with Tommy and wants to apologize for most likely hurting him with her letter in high school, but doesn't know how to start. Kimberly is encouraged by Jason to just talk to him and clear the air as both had since moved on to other people, with Jason noting that Tommy is unlikely to still have any hard feelings over a letter she wrote in high school and the only way that that conversation could end, is with Kimberly finding closure. They are then pulled out of their conversation when, they overhear Billy giving an overly technical explanation, reminiscent of their early days as Rangers, involving the computer's programming to assure Tommy that there was no way for anyone other than Zordon to be brought back. Much to Kimberly and Jason's surprise, Tommy not only seems to understand Billy's technical jargon perfectly, but also manages to translate it into "layman's terms" to his stunned teammates the same way that Trini used to. Tommy answers their unasked question with the words, "Hello, I'm Dr. Tommy Oliver, respected scientist", which he says with good humor. Kimberly then agrees with Jason when he states that he keeps forgetting that Tommy is a scientist now, and still can't believe that he's a doctor. Just as Billy states that he's locked on to Zordon's energy signature within the Morphin Grid and that he should be back momentarily, Billy notes that communications with Cranston Tech seem to be down. After varifying that the communications issue wasn't from the Morphin Nexus' end, Billy teleports out to find out the problem. Immediately afterward, the Morphin Nexus is attacked and the room soon fills up with Putties, Z-Putties, Tenga Warriors, and Quantrons and Kimberly and Jason are surrounded and struggle to fend off the sheer numbers of grunts. Kimberly and Jason can only look on in horror as Goldar, Ecliptor, Superex, and Silverback manage to destroy Tommy in his Ultimate Ranger form. Jason is destroyed soon after by the villains, with leftover energy from their attack hitting Kimberly and knocking her unconscious. The villains then blow up the Power Nexus.

Kimberly survives thanks to Alpha 7 and Alpha 6, however, she is severely injured in the explosion and requires months for her injuries to fully heal followed by several additional months of physical rehabilitation, during which time her place on the team is once again filled by Katherine Hillard. Katherine later asks Billy about Kimberly's condition, to which Billy states that she has about another month of physical therapy. Billy then notes that he repaired all damages that Alpha 7 and Alpha 6 sustained in the explosion in less than an hour, but unfortunately even with all his scientific and technological knowledge, there was nothing that he could do to speed up the process. Day of the Reunions

About a month later, having made a full recovery and been given a clean bill of health by doctors and cleared to continue her gymnastics, Kimberly heads straight to the rebuilt Morphin Nexus to rejoin the team in the lead up to the final battle with the Grand Alliance of Evil. Kimberly offers Kat her condolences as she hadn't been able to attend either of Jason or Tommy's funerals nor gotten many opportunities to speak to her following her hospitalization.

Upon having the Pink Ranger powers transferred back to her from Kat by the Sword of Light, Kimberly participates in the second Legendary Battle against Lokar's forces. Grand Finale

Personality[]

Kimberly starts the series as a typical valley girl, but with a heightened awareness for her friends. Throughout the series, she is the member of the team most likely to fire off a sarcastic or witty retort. As the seasons progress, though, she becomes a friendlier, more kind-hearted person.

Behind the Scenes[]

Portrayal[]

  • Kimberly is portrayed by Amy Jo Johnson, except for in Power Rangers: Future Force, where she is voiced by Meghan Camarena.
  • As the Mighty Morphin' Pink Ranger, her suit actor was Kiyohito Nakagawa (中川 清人 Nakagawa Kiyohito) in Super Sentai footage from Zyuranger, while in original footage her suit actors were Sophia Crawford and Akihiro Noguchi (野口彰宏 Noguchi Akihiro).
  • When Kimberly and Billy switched bodies in "Switching Places", Kimberly was portrayed by David Yost.
  • Unlike her co-stars, Amy Jo Johnson was the most professionally trained actor/actress, having trained at Lee Strasberg Theater and American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City. She had moved to Los Angeles after that and landed the role of Kimberly only six months later.
  • Johnson would elaborate on the audition. “I went through all of this training and felt I had done very well. However, coming into Hollywood makes your confidence drop quite a bit because roles are not guaranteed and I struggled to find work for months. They had an open casting call and while I was a few years older than most who were auditioning, I felt I related to Kimberly better and I still looked and acted like a teenager, so that helped.”

Etymology[]

  • The given name Kimberly has its roots in the Britannic languages, meaning "meadow before the castle".
    • Kim is a common diminutive of Kimberly in this context.
  • The feminine name Ann is one of many derivations of Hebrew Hannah, meaning "He (Yahweh) has favored me."
  • The surname Hart, contrary to popular myth, has nothing to do with the word heart, but comes from Old English heorat, meaning "deer".

Notes[]

KimberlyHart2

Amy Jo Johnson with fans.

  • Midway through Season 3, Amy Jo Johnson requested that Kimberly was written off the show because she wanted to pursue other opportunities in acting. The character was accommodated with a 10-episode story arc focused on Kimberly, leading up to her departure.
  • Out of all the Rangers, Kimberly has the most episodes focusing on her.
  • Kimberly is the first Power Ranger to do gymnastics.
  • As revealed in "Different Drum", Kimberly is fluent in American Sign Language.
  • Kimberly coined the phrase "Morphinominal!", which has been used in many Power Ranger shows since the character's departure from the series.
  • Kimberly was the very first Ranger in the series to appear onscreen. However, she is not the first to be officially introduced as her name is not mentioned until after Zack and Jason's.
  • The name Kimberly was previously used when the 1984 Super Sentai Series Chodenshi Bioman was dubbed in Philippine English, as an English name for Hikaru Katsuragi (Pink Five).
  • Kimberly is the only Ranger (though not the only character) to appear in all three movies, though each of the three films takes place in a different continuity.
  • The role of Kimberly was originally meant to be a stereotypical "dumb blonde"-type character, but was changed to more of a valley-girl type when Amy Jo was cast, which her gymnastics also contributed to.
  • Kimberly, along with Tommy, Billy, Adam, Rocky and Jason are the only Rangers to appear in more than 100 episodes.
  • Kimberly was voted the best Pink Ranger of all time in an ABC Family/Jetix poll.
  • Kimberly is a playable character in Power Rangers Legacy Wars, in four different incarnations.
  • It is not known what becomes of Kimberly after her appearance in the Turbo movie, This has led some fans to believe that, if the rejected romance between Jason and Kimberly in the "Turbo" movie were true, that Jason and Kimberly would now be a couple at this point in time, or maybe even married.
    • However, Power Rangers: Future Force and tie-in media revealed that, while Kimberly and Jason did become romantically involved around the time of the movie, it was a "rebound romance" that didn't go anywhere and ended quickly with the two deciding mutually that they were better off as friends. Instead Kimberly would later meet up with Skull and, despite rejecting him romantically in high school, decided to give a relationship with him a chance. This would later lead to them marrying and having two children, a son named Spike Skullovitch and a daughter named Eugenia Hart, before amicably divorcing and also deciding to remain friends as well.
  • Kimberly returns in the video game Power Rangers: Super Legends, though she is not played or voiced by Amy Jo Johnson. Amit Bhaumik, the script-editor of Power Rangers: Wild Force, claimed in a 2005 interview that he had intended to reveal Kimberly had married Skull in a draft of Forever Red, and therefore would be the mother of future Power Rangers Samurai/Super Samurai character Spike, but this was dropped early in editing. Bhaumik said that he would've liked to have Amy Jo Johnson come back to reprise her role, as well as a few other past "Power Rangers" actors, but was unable to at the time. Whether Kimberly has ended up with her unnamed boyfriend mentioned in "Zeo", Jason or even Skull would remain unexplained in any incarnation of "Power Rangers" since the character's last on-screen appearance on the show until 2023.
    • Ultimately, as previously stated, Future Force would reveal in 2023 that Kimberly did in fact marry Skull and have the aforementioned daughter with him before the two amicably while also heavily implying that Kimberly is the mother of Spike with Kimberly alluding to her son by that name. However, while it's most likely that the two Spikes are one and the same, this has not been confirmed yet.
  • A draft of the "goodbye" scene in "Forever Red", confirmed by Amit Bhaumik on Facebook when asked, also had Kimberly pick Tommy up and be confirmed to be his wife; he also stated that he is a fan of the relationship between Tommy and Kimberly in MMPR. This was a revisiting of a similar scene in which Kat was going to pick him up from the NASADA space port.
  • Kimberly's birthday was given as February 14, making her an Aquarius.
  • Kimberly's birthplace was Seattle, Washington.
  • With regards to the future, Kimberly stated she wished to go to college, and was thinking about being a teacher as she loved working with little kids, but she also wanted to own a gym and coach gymnastics, as well as write.
