(Syndicated, 1937 - 1952) [Despite the adventures of "Hopalong Cassidy", "The Lone Ranger" and "The Cisco Kid" which were early TV shows based upon B-pictures often credited as the "first" filmed TV series...this series filmed in 1937 by Motion Pictures For Television, distributed by MCA-Universal Studios, this was one of the first series which was specifically created for the upcoming new medium of television; It was syndicated during the earliest days of television through the late 1940s and early 1950s...but due to its not being a TV network creation, it sometimes "fell off the radar" in discussing the history of the medium]
