Bruce Kalish has been the inspiration for a new word developed by the Power Ranger Fandom. Kalishplosions or Kalisplosions is a misnomer referring to overly exaggerated pyrotechnics (In specific, explosions blowing up directly behind castmembers which are then depicted going off in slow-motion) detonated in the seasons produced by Kalish and has become a running joke on Power Ranger messageboards, despite their recurrence in Power Rangers predating his tenure with the series. It has since been revealed at Power Morphicon that Kalish himself had little to do with the explosions and stunt-work created for Power Rangers. Instead, the individual responsible and credited in episodes as creating such scenes is Stunt director and choreographer Mark Harris, who signed onto the Power Rangers production team prior To Kalish's Tenure beginning with Ninja Storm. However, the recurrence of such explosions is often miscredited by Kalish himself to being caused by his Co-Executive Producer Koichi Sakamoto, due to Sakamoto's own tendency to make use of explosions alongside other, more dynamic choreography than is seen and criticized as being part of the Kalishplosion phenomena. Sakamoto's own body of work that has nothing to do with Power Rangers (IE: Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Ultraman, Garo) serves to refute the allegation as it is not seen in any other series he is credited as having done stunt directing for; while Power Rangers' production to this day still has Harris as a Stunt Director and relatedly the series still possesses them in their original action sequences.
