Goodbye, Captian Kangaroo...we shall miss ye...

[Mars-Chan]

*cries*

No more Capt. Kangaroo...No more being hit on the head with ping-pong balls... :cry:
(Trust me, despite the fact I was born in '83, I remember this show...)

WHY DID IT HAVE TO END THIS WAY?!?? :cry:

(Can someone back me up here? I'm not finding a whole lot of info on this...)

[Stone Ill]

Captain Kangaroo? I've never heard of it.

EDIT: Just check IMDb. It started in 1955 and ended 1984. No wonder why I never heard of it. I was born in '88.

[Demonfox38]

My parents lost a little bit of their childhood last night.

Goodbye, Sweet Prince. May Angels sing thee to thy rest.

[Mars-Chan]

My parents lost a little bit of their childhood last night.

So did mine. :cry:

And now, for a ping pong salute.... *shoots off 76 canons filled with ping pong balls*

[Machias Banshee]

*blinks. blinks again* No...more....? *sighs* Tis a sad time for our childhood. First Mr. Rogers, now Captain Kangaroo...who next, Frank Oz? :cry:

[ThirdMarioBro]

I know how you feel Mars. I was born in 84, and I remember him from reruns. First Mr. Rodgers, and now Captian Kangeroo. *sigh* It's like loosing little pieces of your past.
May they rest in peace. They helped us on our way when we were little, and we will always remember them for that.

*also fires 75 cannon salute of ping-pong balls*

*blinks. blinks again* No...more....? *sighs* Tis a sad time for our childhood. First Mr. Rogers, now Captain Kangaroo...who next, Frank Oz? :cry:

You know, I said almost the exact same thing about six months ago. Please don't. The thought of loosing Yoda makes me want to cry my heart out. :cry: God bless those guys.

[Mars-Chan]

*blinks. blinks again* No...more....? *sighs* Tis a sad time for our childhood. First Mr. Rogers, now Captain Kangaroo...who next, Frank Oz? :cry:
NOT YODA!!! ANYONE BUT YODA!!! *Sends off another round of the ping pong salute*

[ThirdMarioBro]

Ditto

*Loads Cannon*

[Mars-Chan]

Ready...Fire! *sends off another round*

[ThirdMarioBro]

*Does the Captian Falcon salute in memory of Cpt. Kangeroo.*

[The Stryker]

its conspiracy....i know who "killed" them...

it wasn't the ol grim reaper neither....it was a certain child poison named.....Barney..

you see after losing Baby bop to the local stegosaurus Barney went into a alcoholic state, he cleaned out five bottles of whisky in 15 minutes and just last night he sent a ransom note to mr.hooper asking for 20,000 dollars for the return of a Mr.Elmo, you see...i think he's covering up his crimes with many piles of glitter from that damned barney bag....i say we catch the son of a bitch and bring him to justice!!!

*two mental asylum guards grab me and drag me away*

Sure we have order....but at what price!?!?

[Anarky]

[That Matt Guy]

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0444828/

Gah, that guy was creepy looking.

[Anarky]

yeah, that's the guy that was supposed to be on that photo. what kinda actor was he? and what's captain kangaroo?

[That Matt Guy]

He hosted a kid's show. It doesn't look like he did much else.

[Mars-Chan]

*pouts in a coner near TMB and Machi* I want my Capt. Kangaroo.... :cry:

[Jo Dawn]

I know, how sad. *pouts* I loved that show... *solomnly watches the ping-pong salute* Goodbye Capt. Kangaroo...

[Mars-Chan]

*sends off another round of ping pong balls* It's just not the same. :cry:
Fare thee well, old friend.... :(

[damnhooligan]

My parents grew up watching his show and are relatively saddened by his loss.

Me, I shall weep the day they declare Mr. T dead. For it is he who I grew up watching, and he who has taught me the fundamentals of life (jibba-jabbering, the ceasing of said action, and so forth).

[Mars-Chan]

Oh, you pity the poor fool, eh? :lol:

Technically Yoda did die....Episode 6 I think it was. I just know he died in one of the movies. Ok, I have no idea who Captain Kangaroo is. I was born in 83' also. Sean might know. I'll ask him when we go to the gym later.

[Mars-Chan]

*Sends off another round*

I know he died. I was referring to the fact that I don't want Frank Oz passing away! He directed one of my favorite movies: "Little Shop Of Horrors"! :evilgrin:

Still....it is sad to see another part of my childhood die off.

What?!?! No way!! I love Little Shop of Horrors! I should get the DVD.

I saw a highschool play on it but instead of the love scene by the end, they just had Audry II eat everyone. Stupid, isn't it?

[That Matt Guy]

Which Little Shop of Horrors did he direct? The original or the remake?

[Mars-Chan]

:nod: It's true. :D

The movie is PERFECT. At the very end, Audrey II curses. :evilgrin: Actually CURSES. I LOVE IT!! :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

[Mars-Chan]

Feed me! "Does it have to be human?!" Feed me! "Does it have to be mine?!"

:D
