I grew up watching Captain Kangaroo, and I have many fond childhood memories of him and his show.

I dunno why, but I thought he passed on a few years ago

So did I.

Weird.

Anyway, his show was hardly played anymore on my PBS station by the time I came along, but when it was on, I always watched it. It had a different flavor than Sesame Street or Mister Rogers' Neighborhood.

R.I.P.

What a shame. I too remember the show when I was little.

It's too bad he's been off the air for so long. He was right up there with Mr. Rogers in my book.

I used to watch Captain Kangaroo every morning when I was little. He was an important part of my childhood. R.I.P. Captain. I'll never forget you.
