i loved this show... i can still hear the music and see Captain Kangeroo's keys unlocking the door... remember Dancing Bear, Grandfather Clock--from where the Captain would get a story book--and all those ping pong balls that would fall from the ceiling? oh--and Bunny Rabbit--who never talked... (and the Town Clown...) i guess i could go on and on...

Don’t let me stop you,those were times I personally could understand.Before political correctness, when people were just people.It’s a shame we’ve let liberals take control of our society and screw everything decent up !!!
I loved that show too and Mr. Bunny Rabbit...remember Mr. Moose too? I peeked at a site about the show to ‘remember’ more!!
You’ll be surprised to know that the man inside “Dancing Bear” was none other than (might want to sit down for this) Alice Cooper. I forget what his real name was. Anyway, it was Vermonter Capt Kangaroo who introduced Cooper to Jim Henson at a Chinese restaurant, hence his subsequent appearance on The Muppet Show. Small world.
Of course, Mr. Rogers also produced one of the dirtiest character names on a children's show: "Mr. McFeely."
