With the big budget Johnny Depp movie looming on
the summer box office horizon, it’s a perfect time to pick up this set from
Echo Bridge Home Entertainment and
reacquaint yourself with the classic TV show that help make The Lone Ranger and
Tonto such cultural icons. The set contains 12 episodes from the original
series, which ran from 1949-1957, and, as you would expect, it’s a mixed bag as
far as plots are concerned. But that’s OK. The spirit of the Lone Ranger comes
through in all of them. The interesting thing about the set is the way they mix
shows in black and white with those shot in color. Who knew the Lone Ranger’s
tightly tailored outfit was powder blue?
