Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Grab your mask and six-guns, kids, 'cuz the Lone Ranger's back and better than ever! Once again, the retro-wizards at Rhino have expertly packaged this welcome trip down TV memory lane, serving up six complete 22-minute episodes of the popular shoot-'em-up series, starring Clayton Moore as the Lone Ranger and Jay Silverheels as his faithful sidekick, Tonto. The first two black-and-white episodes (from 1949) are included as bonus features, reminding us of the masked man's origins, and four consecutive color episodes from 1956 show the series at its peak of popularity. The colors have faded a bit (otherwise these shows look great), but the action's still as brisk as ever; this is kid-stuff produced with intelligence and skill, with well-cast villains (including Glenn Strange and General Hospital veteran John Beradino) and punchy stories that will still delight any baby boomers who look back fondly at TV's golden age. --Jeff Shannon

Don't know about these discs from Rhino, however, I have the earlier 4 disc-19 episode DVDs issued in 2003, all 19 in color, and Rhino did a great job with that set. Set also includes interviews with Clayton Moore's daughter, Dawn Moore, and Moore's longtime friend, Rand Brooks. If you enjoy the "masked man", cannot afford to be without this one, pardner. Nothing like the Lone Ranger in color!
Based upon what I read here, I won't be buying these. Thanks guys. Time compression ... Read More

I wish to reply to your criticizim of Rhino for the running of a show in what you call Video Compression. The Lone Ranger was origionally filmed at 24 Frames-per-Second. Most shows today are filmed (and run) at 30 Frames-per-Second. I agree with you that the sped-up look (24 fps run at 30 fps) looks fake. However, may I point out that if you were to run that show at the origional 24 frames-per-second it will look somewhat choppy. Running it at 30 looks "Artificially Fast" and thus FAKE. For all of us that ... Read More

Why in the world would you want to buy this collection of edited/time compressed episodes. They totally violate my memories of the character. Rhino has normally had a reputation for issuing some of the finest TV programs. This is really below their standards. Don't waste your time or money on this one. I hope that ultimately someone wil issue all the Lone Ranger episodes in their original condition.
