OH NO! that is Kaptain Kangaroo!
Who was his sidekick.
We watched him daily on a little black and white when I was a little boy, or not so little. I'm thinking early- mid 50s.

I don't know how long that show ran, but we sure watched it a long time.

I loved it when the moose was out and the ping-pong balls rained down
.Half the kids in America howled with laughter.

That and Archie Bunker and Sanford and Son
Another one I was surprised to learn was a vet... Eddie Albert (Green Acres) ... Ran a boat under fire dropping off guys and picking up wounded at Tarawa from the very start.
I do still watch this often...don't even know what channel,

We in the Seattle area had a couple of local shows too. J.P.Patches and the Captain Puget show that starred Ivar Haugland who owned a big piece of the waterfront on the sound and land on the shore of Lake Washington. Ivar also owned all of the Ivar's restaurants.
The Lone Ranger! I don't remember how old I was when I found out the the story was based on a real man. That's when I found out that the real Lone Ranger was a black man.

Captain Kangaroo had a small stuffed rabbit friend, too.

I was on the Captain Kangaroo show. He was at the Woodland Park Zoo and we were standing way back from where they were filming and we wound up on TV. Big thing for a kid in the 50s.
I missed JP Patches by 1 day. He came to Children's Hospital in Seattle the day after we left. Had our tonsils out for Christmas. Thanks, Mom.
Ivar's has some of the best clam chowder. Black Angus closed their local restaurant last year and I haven't seen a King's Table in years.
