    Thank you for this remembrance of the MOST ingratiating of all TV personalities. Bob's charm and
    warmth, came from his ideals of morality and engagement with the interests of children, unlike the
    motivation of his competitors, with the exception of Fred Rodgers, with whom he shared so many
    values, and why they were not competitors. I still prefer the original image of Captain to the red
    coat version. The dark suit and high topped dress boots evoked a different sort of character
    altogether. When he smartened up in the red suit, the atmosphere of the program changed. I
    am glad he was insistent that management maintain his high standards of production, and
    that he championed, and did not simply talk about, children and their futures. It is telling that
    this was lost on the network in the cuts he made to the program, and to the impact this good man
    had on the lives of so many children. Shame on management!! God bless Bob and those he loved.

    Two fond memories of The Captain...
    First I remember "moving day", when The Captain moved from The Treasure House into the new Captain's house. Quite exciting!
    And secondly, and most fond of all, I remember when Mr. Rogers himself made an appearance on Captain Kangaroo! It was just mind blowing to me! Mr. Rogers ..AND...Captain Kangaroo! Together! It would be like if Superman and Santa Claus had met! :)

      Wow ! Those are fantastic memories. The Captain with the blue coat is before my time, so i have no Treasure House memories it’s sad to say. And I really wish i could’ve seen Mister Rogers visit! You’re so right; that would be like Superman meeting Santa ! Thanks for sharing that !
