Just as a warning to others and to back up what has been said, the video quality of the serial is horrible. The pictures is extremely out of focus and the audio is horrid. If you are buying this set for the serial (Which I did), forget it, it is not even worth a dollar.
However if you are buying it for the TV show then you are in for a real treat. The show still holds up real well today and has what I consider excellent Production values. The video quality is a little iffy as is the audio, but still worth the price.
As a bonus you are treated to the awesomeness of Clayton Moore as the Lone Ranger! Clayton Moore is spectacular as the Lone Ranger and along with Jay Silverheels makes this set well worth buying.

This is just a short review to say the Clayton Moore shows are enjoyable enough, but the Lone Ranger serial is about as poor as you can get. The serial has long been considered lost but turned up in a print with Spanish subtitles. That is the one used here, and it is truly bad video quality and they have enlarged the image to hide the subtitles at the bottom of the print used.
Even at the cheap price of this DVD set, it is isn't worth it. Stay away!

This is a very quick review. I liked the quality of the video and sound. However at the end of each episode the William Tell Overature sounded a little faster than I remembered it. Could it have been some sort of time compression? This is fine quality family entertainment. I loved seeing The Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels and Tonto again. Excellent horsemanship! The Lone Ranger has great values that everyone should learn from. Clayton Moore said that he was a better person for having played the Lone Ranger. We need him today!

Although I have some of the Lone Ranger movies, I still enjoy watching the half-hour episodes. I would just love to find more of those episodes on DVD.
