Aimed at children, the radio series portrayed the Cisco Kid as a good-hearted nomad and a spoof of Robin Hood who was sometimes mistakenly thought to be on the wrong side of the law owing to his propensity to clash with "the rich and selfish" who were harming the poor. Each episode ended with one of them cracking a silly joke about the quest they had just finished. They would laugh and exclaim, "Oh, Pancho!" and "Oh, Cisco!" before riding away.
