Absolutely I grew up with both as well as the Electric Company and Sesame street its sad you wake up today to literally nothing of quality and value for kids to watch on tv before the 90s and 2000s the world was such a better place especially for kids.

I wish there was more Captain Kangaroo episodes around to watch

Captain Kangaroo faced serious competition in our grade school home from my mom wanting to watch "Good Morning America" around the same time. She was glad to get us off to school so she could have the TV all to herself and watch Joan Lunden. I just remember Captain had the most toy commercials outside of Saturday mornings and thought of all the advertising dollars Mister Rogers lost out on by being on PBS

Thank you for posting this rare episode of 'Captain Kangaroo'! By saving the tape all of these years, he unwittingly did us a great favor. Not many episodes are known to survive, but this is wonderful to see. This makes the third episode of which I'm aware to exist from the 1980's.

My grandma was in captin kangaroo. She wasn't in a real episode but it was a cereal commercial that involved captin kangaroo. She was maybe around 6-10 when she was in it.

Seeing The CB Bears again take me back to my early childhood!

God bless him for the positive fun he provided to so many! Great posting 🏆🥇

This really brings back memories of the eighty’s and the good old days.

thank you to WHOEVER FOUND THIS! we must find MORE. Very enjoyable but I'd rather see more of the captain than cartoons (I heard that cbs was screwing the show up due to cbs morning news, with the wake up era, then in 1982, they put it back to an hour for weekends only, and after being reduced a again in 1984, Bob Keeshan seemed to have ragequit when the contract expired, but returned for a little while in 1986 on pbs) If I grew up from the 50s or 80s, or if many episodes were released on home media then I would've loved the show, sadly its difficult to watch now

Wow. Your channel is like a freakin time machine. It brings back so many memories, things buried in my brain that I had totally forgotten about.

as a kid watched him every morning

I remember watching this episode in 1982! Unfortunate it wasn't like what I saw in the 70's, but I loved it!

Gotta love the Captain!

I remember waking up on Saturday mornings in the early 80’s to watch Captain Kangaroo. It was such a good show with some old cartoons like Undercover Elephant and the CB Bears. One skit I remember they did was an Indiana Jones kinda skit was really good. Of course always loved Mr Moose, Bunny Rabbit, Dennis and Mr Green Jeans. Who doesn’t remember the ping pong balls.

Mad, MAD props to Bob Keeshan and the gang for having the energy to put on that kind of show at their ages. I’m only 41 and I’m already tired enough to go spend eternity in Heaven and be with Jesus!

Thanks. A good watch, especially the roller skating segment. Watching the commercials, I was surprised to see all the attempts at Annie merchandise. I guess it didn't sell well. I'm not surprised - the whole idea of buying an Annie mansion and dolls just feels odd.

Hey, that animal segment has the Arther theme playing in the background.

At 14:11 - the animated skit with the man making his bed with a dog on it, was it animated by Bruce Cayard? If I recall, he did many animated segments for "Sesame Street" too. If true, then "Captain Kangaroo" could have two known connections to "Sesame Street" - Cayard, and the then-future voice of Elmo, Kevin Clash).

I remember all the controversy over the show being canceled because it was the only children's programing on network television during a weekday. The reason given was that CBS wanted to expand their morning show to compete with the other networks. There weren't as many children at home with their moms anymore like they were in the prior decades. Most were in daycare now because mom had to work to keep up with the inflation of the 70s or because of divorce. Or both. Child of the 70s here.

More than 42 years after CBS did what they did... Captain Kangaroo is still fondly remembered. While CBS is STILL trying to find a successful morning show to replace the Captain without any luck whatsoever to this day

you showed up on my newsfeed you were showing the best guy in the world Captain kangaroo I grew up on him you help me be a man that I am so I subscribed

Didn't realize they used the "Here comes Captain Kangaroo" theme before the public television reruns. But how come they resumed "Good Morning Captain" towards the end of the CBS run?

@tvtimetravel

That theme was based on a film segment song "The Wonderful World of Machines". They were both written and sung by Lynn Ahrens of Schoolhouse Rock fame.

So the intro associated with the PBS reruns debuted while the show was still on CBS then.

talent can be seen even long ago.

I was a big fan of Captain Kangaroo when I was a kid and my sister was, too (she was born in 1964). I wasn't even 7 years old when this episode aired; I was born on November 14, 1975. It's too bad that the entire series isn't on dvd. I'd love to see my favorite episodes again. I watched it on PBS when I was in jr. high school back in the late 1980s, but had to put up with the "clip shows"! :(

It’s the first time I’ve seen an installment to the Captain from a CBS-owned station and WBBM-TV in Chicago,ch 2 is it.

That looks like Paul the girilla on the Electric Company.

Is this the show that had the sketch where a girl drops something down a sewer grate, goes to retrieve it, realizes the stairs back up vanished, has to answer three riddles to get back up, then drops something else and leaves it?

nice

3:00 I love that damn moose lol!

It sounded a lot like Johnny Olson as the announcer for Dear Gabby.

I MISS"PUFFING BILLY"

We had good show and great economy during the 80's. Just sad us older generation moving on

The piano music at 16:02 is from "Lover Boy" by Supertramp.

Smug Captain at 3:00. C. Kangaroo was a mad boss of the Schwinn, Colgate, and Wonder Bread empire with his posse: Mr. Moose, Bunny Rabbit, and Mr. Green Jeans. I wonder if he attended the Board of Directors meetings of these corporations wearing his stylish red jacket?

never see that coming

The captain helped me survive sociopaths for parents

1982? 1981 was the year when the started to have 1/2 hour and he was wearing a sweater instead of jacket and no longer at the Captain's place setting for revamped setting. Nice to see this show.

What I remember about the Saturday shortened program was they started doing Muppets style music video segments with Top 40 songs of the day -- at least that's what I recall.

Grew up with the colorized show, was probly 5 or 6. But I think it was still on air not reruns, to bad nothing can stay, in the oblivious-ness. Of how bad things really are. Can't ever go back. Must had been about 1980. Give or take a year. Considering how they perverted and trashed seseamon st. It's just as well these shows will only live as reruns. Not to bring them back, as some sick twisted parody. Of what was, and never be again.

July 26, 2022: I watched this show each morning before school....frightening. Now, witchcraft is becoming a dominant force in society. God help us.
