Trivia

The Lone Ranger's young nephew, Dan Reid, who appeared occasionally on this show, was the father of Britt Reid, The Green Hornet. Both characters were created for radio by George W. Trendle.

The "Hi-Yo Silver!" shout at the beginning of each episode is a recording of Earle W. Graser, who played The Lone Ranger on radio from 1933-41.

In the early 1950s, the show was so popular that ABC briefly repeated it late on Friday nights for those who missed the Thursday night broadcast.

Series creator Fran Striker added Tonto to give the Lone Ranger someone to talk to.

"Kemo Sabe" means "trusted friend". In Episode One it is explained that it means "trusted scout". Other sources have said that it is a corruption of the Spanish phrase "Quien sabe", which means "Who knows?"
