The Lone Ranger's Triumph

[andiedel]

johnny depp is no longer making a big-screen version of the lone ranger. cancelled by walt disney - probably he can do it with his own money...

[filmnoir67]

Johnny Depp is making a big-screen version of The Lone Ranger soon, but the masked guy who ends up yelling “Hi-yo, Silver!” better get used to being the sidekick.

I guess the brief pauses when a "brief and important message" is announced , these would be where the U.S. broadcast would have had adverts. I watched the series on BBC in the 50s and the Lone Ranger was my hero. Even as a child I sussed the "ham" acting , though !

The Lone Ranger was one of my favorite programs growing up. It was one of few programs I was allowed to watch with my parents approval.

[HeavyMetalAddict918]

I'm 13 and I must admit, I find this very entertaining.

[CinnAlla]

I can remember the BBC showing "The Lone Ranger" in the 1950s. Mercifully there were no adverts to spoil the show - there was no such thing as commercial TV in Britain at the time. Jay Silverheels was my hero! Simple adventure, but great TV for its time, and the use of Rossini's "William Tell" for the theme music was inspired.

I'm 48 and my grandpa died when I was around 9 years old, so I have very few memories of him. I do remember watching the Lone Ranger with him. Thanks for the video's it brings back some fond memories.

[wesseavey]

How refreshing we can turn back the pages of time to see this good stuff again.

[porknb2]

[UglyMannheim]

He was a fabulous individual.

[009sabrina]

I love Silver! He's such a beautiful horse. Wish I could have him. And is it just me, or am I the only 14 year old who's seen this show. . .?

[tigersharka]

A fiery horse with the speed of light! A cloud of dust and a hearty Hi-Yo, Silver! The Lone Ranger! It would be nice to see a good role model for today youth...the Lone Ranger stood for honesty, fairness and justice.

TRUE STORY

Lone Ranger- "Tanto there goes that man with the rifle again."

Tanto- "They say he's fast kemosabe, should leave alone kemosabe."

Lone Ranger- "Tanto I'm a ranger and that man is carrying a deadly weapon among civilians, he's breaking the law."

Tanto- "Let him go kemosabe, Don't want death to range.

L.Range- "Thanks Tanto, but I must uphold the law."

[b75s]

L.Range- "Excuse mister but you are breaking the law, no civilian is allowed to carry such a weapon."

Lucas- "SAIDS WHO!"

L.Range- The Lone Ranger: and you are mister?"

Lucas- "Lucas McCain, and this is my son Mark."

L.Ranger- Well sorry mister McCain but I'm gonna have to take your rifle away from you."

Lucas- "Just hold it Ranger!"

L.Ranger- "Mr. McCain if I have to I will use extreme force to take that rifle."

Lucas- "You just try it buddy!"

[b75s]

(at this point the Lone Ranger moves forward toward's Lucas McCain's rifle.)

Mark- "Hey!, leave my pa alone!"

(with a sudden swift kick to the Lone Ranger's balls)

L.Ranger- "AAAGGGHHHH!, Tanto help."

(with agony and pain)

Tanto- "I told you kemosabe." THE END

I love this show my alltime favorite! Long live the Lone Ranger

[troykelso]

Yeah, terrymarvin2009, I remember watching The Lone Ranger every Saturday and Sunday at 1:00 PM on KXTX, channel 39 in Cedar Hill, Texas in the '70s and '80s. They'd show two episodes, back-to-back, each day. A great show, and great memories...

[CharlieTuna265]

A highbrow - someone who listens to the William Tell Overture and NOT think of the Lone Ranger.

the radio show was done a bit over 20 miles from where I'm currently sitting :)

[cupidncomici]

Jay Silverheels who played Tonto went on to become a very talented harness racer (not sure exactly what they're called). We

saw him in the Meadowlands in Pennsylvania. Children of that era had good heroes who helped teach right from wrong. Also, we gobbled down boxes of General Mills cereals which made us stronger to be like the Lone Ranger!

[Clarence92989]

I once met Clayton Moore when I was an adult. When I shook his hand it was like a rock, he had to be in his sixties, he was really a strong person. Long live his memory

[wyominglost]

get em high sheriff.lol

[bajangirl01]

I grew up watching the Lone Ranger, it's good to see this show again.

My name is Terry.

"The Lone Ranger" was on before my time. But I remember watching it in Syndication on Channel 39, back in the 60's and 70's, In Richardson, Texas, when I was a teenager. I used to watch a bunch of Westerns when I was a teenager.  Sincerely, Terry

[JABSR47]

I'm two years older than the Long Ranger TV show. It was always one of my favorites along with Rin Tin Tin, Roy Rogers and Sgt Preston of the Yukon. Those were the days!

[warcat49]

I'm 6 month older than the Lone Ranger 1st episode, and i still love it war cat

[pensacotti]

The Lone Ranger was before my time. Born in 1967, I was a school house rock kid. Shazam, Super friends, etc.

My dad always talked about the Lone Ranger. Born in 1938, he listened to the radio shows before the tv shows. I remember him showing me his Lone Ranger costume.

Here I am (41), watching the shows he enjoyed, They are very good! I'm already hooked. I think I'll book mark this for my son who's 9. This sure beats the pants off Fairly Odd Parents and Sponge Bob. Much more adventure!!

the lone ranger rides again !

[baptistfaith]

Does any one know how many Silver's the Lone Ranger used in this series. some of the white horse's look a little heavy footed . They look good running, but not very fast. Then at other times the white horses look thinner, and can really run. I also noticed when there is a close up of Silver, some the white horses have a wide thick nose, and sometimes the white horse's nose is thinner and not as wide. This series ran a long time , so I know there had to be 3 or 4 different horses called Silver

[starmaster83]

In his biography, "I Was That Masked Man", Clayton Moore stated that there were two white stallions used in the series.

[donharp1959]

Yes, your right he played Sam on Gunsmoke.
