I was born in 1969 so my memories of Captain Kangaroo are from the “Captain’s Place” set with him in the red suit. I do remember the “Puffing Billy” theme still in use though until the mid 70’s when the “Good Morning Captain” theme and the various CBS stars giving their greetings replaced it. I loved the show and watched religiously almost to the very end. Interesting to watch this earlier episode and compare it to both the 1976 with Dolly Parton and the 1982 show which are both posted on KZbin as well. This episode here seems much more like a morning variety show with Keeshan serving as a host, introducing each segment and telling viewers what else they will see. The segments themselves are quite long as well. The later shows…especially evident in 1976 seems more episodic with the cast involved in a storyline with shorter segments breaking in as the story progresses….sort of the same formula as Sesame Street. I’m guessing that kids from earlier times had longer attention spans to watch a performance while later era audiences thrived in story lines with quick breaks in between.

I was 4 or 5 when I was watching the captain, and there's things in this episode I kind of remember. I never realized just how weird this show was back then. And a tom terrific cartoon, dancing bear, town clown, the creepy bunny rabbit and I didn't remember the captain's weird acting, but also that it never spoke or played down to children. Watching it now it's weird, but at the same time for a kid with a short attention span it's easy to watch, not preachy or trying to overstimulate. Watching this I have to wonder if Bob was a big fan of Ernie Kovacks though..

0:21 Been looking for this Lassus Trombone song since I was little kid in the 60’s. I remember this version from CK like it was yesterday. Harry Anderson played this on his trombone from Night Court.
