Ah yes---the Captain, Mr. Green Jeans, Dancing Bear, the Banana Man and all the rest. Every Saturday morning, it was like a religion at our mouse. Followed by Mighty Mouse...."heeeeereeee I come to save the day....."

Yeah, it was certainly sad news - there doesn't seem to be quite as much gentle entertainment for children on TV as there once was.

Does anyone know what Bob Keeshan's first TV job was?

He was the original Clarabell the Clown on the Howdy Doody Show. How's that for a trip in the Wayback Machine -

I remember Clarabell, Howdy, Buffalo Bob Smith ("Say kids, what time is it!?"), Chief Thunderthud, Princess Summerfallwinterspring, Phineas T. Bluster - and the Flub-a-Dub.

I don't know why but for some reason the Flub-a-Dub scared me when I was a kid, I distinctly remember asking my Dad if there was any such animal as a Flub-a-Dub.

I think I was maybe 16 or 17 at the time -

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Mr Greenjeans used to be coming on each day right when we had to be going to school. I loved that show. I bet Captain Kangaroo reruns would still kick ass over some of the stuff they show on PBS now.
Anyone remember Sandy Becker as Norton Nork? There was a creative guy.

I was sad to here af the passing of the Captain. Remembering also Tom Terrific Cartoons, with the badguy Crabby Appleton.
