Since I remember someone(Kimmie?) ask who he was, I thought I'd post some pics.

I've never seen an episode, so now I'm wondering too. Anyone here seen an episode? ???
I loved captain Kangaroo!
I used to watch it all the time!
I may even still have some tapes of it...
never seen it, but then again, I don't watch tv much :-\
It's an older show(B&W), so odds are people that watch a lot of TV, wouldn't know either. :P
and this is coming from someone, that watches old silent films. ;P
Anyone know a good place to buy it(online or retail-chain)? ???
... wtf is Captain Kangaroo again? :P
I've never seen it myself
*edits for the 50th time* lol nevermind I could see the pics in the first posts already :D
wow!! :o you can make 50 edits in less then 9 mins? that is about 10 sec for each edit, lol! my browser isn't that fast :o :P
/me has no idea who this character 'Captain Kangaroo' is :P
I'll always remember his "faiy tale special" movie, which I think I still own.
Such a great movie.. XB
I've seen many episodes of Captain Kangaroo, awesome show! ;D
I think one episode had the Easter Bunny accused of a crime... ::)
And I'll never forget the episode that was in a subway station and had all those signs in one section.
That was one crazy show! XB

I believe that was me ;)
Weird looking guy - is that like a kid's show or something ???
Sorta... it appeals to young teens more than anything. It's a bit more mature than Barney or Mister Rogers at any rate. ;)
I've no idea who Mister Rogers is, either :-\
He's from Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, which used to be quite good when it had all those puppets on the other side of the tunnel... sadly he died recently. :(

He doesn't look like a Kangaroo to me :o :P
Never seen him, never heard of him....
wtf is "Captain Kangaroo"?

Wow, that was quite a long running children's show! :o Too bad he died in January of this year, supposedly he was going to try and restart the show, maybe with a different cast.
