Hopalong Cassidy - OTR


(3.7 stars; 22 reviews)

Hopalong Cassidy was a popular radio series that began broadcasting on the Mutual Broadcasting System in January 1950. The show featured Andy Clyde as the sidekick and later moved to CBS Radio at the end of September 1950, where it continued until 1952.

The character of Hopalong Cassidy became a cultural icon, appearing on the first lunch box to bear an image, which significantly boosted sales for Aladdin Industries. The series also inspired a range of merchandise, including children's dinnerware, roller skates, soap, wristwatches, and jackknives.

In addition to its radio success, Hopalong Cassidy was featured on the covers of national magazines such as Look, Life, and Time, and there was a renewed demand for Hopalong Cassidy films in theaters.

Reviews

Simple but well presented


(4 stars)

Roundups and rustlers with good sound. The bad guys lose and the good guys win. The musical songs are very period western. Think Sons of the Pioneers

Hollywood Cheese


(0.5 stars)

Uneven and almost always poorly constructed scripts. No amount of sentimentality can overcome the impact of these cheap and sloppy story’s.

Good Show


(5 stars)

I really found this show held my interest. Still good today. II hope to listen to it all the way through. TY for the upload.


(4 stars)

It’s a great series full of adventure and fun. But, it is a little bad written.

Good series


(4 stars)

Great audio quality, fine selection---highly recommended

Too many "Error Loading" problems!


(2 stars)

Apparently, once these Hopalong Cassidy shows were posted, the poster never has bothered to come back to see that things are still running smoothly. I love the shows, but hate it that I can't even get to hear them, or they stop in the middle, due to "Error Loading." Fortunately, I've heard ALL of these shows in the past, when this problem wasn't occurring. It's just that I like to hear them again.

Use to work
