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

*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...)

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.

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

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

So did mine. :cry:

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

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*

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.

NOT YODA!!! ANYONE BUT YODA!!! *Sends off another round of the ping pong salute*

Ditto

*Loads Cannon*

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

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

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!?!?

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

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