Captain Kangaroo is Bob Keeshan's Treasure House: Mr. Green Jeans, calm address, no scream track required. The Clarabell-to-Captain glow-up is children's TV's best second act. Watch it in 2026 as the longest-running gentle kids' hour of its kind — manners as programming, and a host who talked to the child at home.
