‘Oh man, I used to LOVE the “Captain Kangaroo” show. I remember crying when Mr.Green Jeans did a sweet little dance to “Mr. Bojangles”. This was one of the interstitials shown during the program. The animation was funded in part by the US Department of Education.
A video for those who need to find the optimism, in the nihilistic universe.

I remember watching this show whenever i could when i was a kid, and it brings backs much nostalgia just watching it again. I saw the movie as a kid, but watching it again i never noticed how much 60’s references there were, as well as this psychedelic ending to my childhood. It brings me much joy and laughter knowing that a children’s show like this had the balls to incorporate 60’s elements like this into there movie. Its beautiful really, and earns its place as one of my favorite childhood shows.
