The Lone Ranger OTR Radio Show Collection The Lone Ranger is an American radio and television show created by George W. Trendle and developed by Fran Striker. The title character is a masked Texas Ranger in the American Old West, originally played by George Seaton, who gallops about righting injustices with the aid of his clever, laconic Indian sidekick, Tonto. Departing on his white horse Silver, the Ranger would famously say "Hi-yo, Silver, away!" as the horse galloped toward the setting sun. The first of 2,956 episodes of The Lone Ranger premiered on radio January 30, 1933 on WXYZ radio in Detroit, Michigan and later on the Mutual Broadcasting System radio network and then on NBC's Blue Network (The show's last new episode on September 3, 1954). Old-Time Radio (OTR) refers to the period of radio programming from the early 1920s until television's replacement of radio in the 1950s. During this period, the airwaves were filled with a huge variety of radio programs. According to a 1947 C. E. Hooper survey, 82 out of 100 Americans were found to be radio listeners, which explains the massive variety of radio programing - mystery, westerns, drama, comedy and more.
