Lone Ranger Still Brings Thrills
Around a year ago my mother died and she had a vast collection of older western television shows that she loved. As she would collect these different series we would always make fun of her watching these kind of shows, but since her passing I have learned what she seen in these shows. Today I am going to talk a little about the Lone Ranger Television Show.
Clayton Moore played the Lone Ranger for most of the show, but one stretch he did have a salary dispute and they had another guy step in for 20 some episodes. For the most part Moore did play the Lone Ranger. The premise of the show was Moore was a guy who wore a mask to protect his identity and helped people who needed it. He had a faithful sidekick name Tonto who was always there to help him.
After watching several box sets of this show I have really grown to like what the show represented and how it was presented. No, it did not have the greatest acting in the world or the best storylines, but I have found it to be well worth watching. Clayton Moore did a great job as the Lone Ranger and if you want to watch some Classic TV I recommend this series to anyone. Below is the theme song from the show which I love.
