From the Olsen Twin's sleepover film directed by a guy named Michael Kruzan. Here's the IMDB page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0242153/?ref_=ttfc_fc_tt

Kussa Mahchi was a songwriting stage name used by Israeli-American media mogul Haim Saban.

"Saban may be best known today as a big shot Democratic campaign donor and the founder of the eponymous Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution. You may know that he’s the force behind the “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” and its myriad offshoots and reboots. So, aside from launching this remarkably popular, campily low-budget kids’ show, what has Haim Saban done to receive such a prestigious honor?"

"Some of his former partners and friends have called him a “ruthless and anything-goes guy in business.” But it’s paid off: His current worth is estimated at $3.6 billion. Recently, he’s been in the news in connection to his big donations to the Hillary Clinton campaign."

"Saban used the alias “Kussa”or “Kussa Mahchi” for some of his composing/lyrics writing credits, including the extra catchy — and annoying, some might say — Power Rangers theme song. It means stuffed zucchini, a popular dish in the Middle East."

"In 1994, Saban helped bring this strangely compelling, fast-paced anime about crime fighting, pizza-delivering cats from an imaginary city called Little Tokyo. Saban bought the rights and produced “Samurai Pizza Cats,” an English version of the Japanese show “Kyatto Ninden Teyandee.” Think naming pizza-obsessed crime fighters after Renaissance artists, a la the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, was edgy? The names of the Samurai Pizza Cats were Speedy Ceviche, Polly Esther (Jewish?!) and Guido Anchovy. Yes, they had a female heroine from the start — score one for feminism!"

"Between June 2015 and June 2016, Saban donated $7 million to Priorities USA, a pro-Clinton Super PAC."

"He’s currently chairman of Univision. In 2006, a group of investors led by Saban made a bid to purchase Univision Communications. They won the bid, and purchased the communication company for a whopping $13.6 billion, which is currently the largest Spanish-language media company in the US."

That's the same reaction I had when watching this the first time. It seems like they like to rub it in our faces. They have been doing this kinda stuff so long already they got cocky about it. It's all just a big inside joke for them.
