The only thing I remember about Captain Kangaroo is when he forgot to turn off his microphone and made the statement, "Well I guess that takes care of the little bastards another day", at the end of one of his shows.

Wrong guy. The one who did that ran the Buster Brown show "I'm Buster Brown. I live in a shoe. That's my dog Tighe. Look for him in there, too." The same one who worked with Froggie, "Plunk your magic twanger, Froggie."

Wrong! and Wrong! That quote is from a series of records put out in the early '50s titled "Pardon My Blooper" I don't remember the name of the show, but it was radio, not television, it was from the '30s or '40s and it definitely was not Captain Kangaroo or Andy Devine.

Well I am certainly sure both of them were thinking it.
