Captain Kangaroo Dies - RIP

Bob Keeshan, the actor who played "Captain Kangaroo" on the classic children's television show of the same name, has died, according to broadcast reports.

Keeshan was 76.

Both MSNBC and ABC NewsOne are reporting his death. ABC NewsOne says Keeshan's family confirmed his death.

The show ran on CBS from 1955 to 1984.

Keeshan first rose to prominence playing "Clarabell the Clown" on NBC's "The Puppet Playhouse" (aka "The Howdy Doody Show") from 1947 to 1953, opposite the late "Buffalo" Bob Smith.




I miss him already.
