  • Captain Kangaroo is an American children's television series that aired weekday mornings on the American television network CBS for 29 years, from 1955 to 1984, making it the longest-running nationally broadcast children's television program of its day. In 1986, the American Program Service (now American Public Television, Boston) integrated some newly produced segments into reruns of past episodes, distributing the newer version of the series to PBS and independent public stations until 1993. The show was conceived by Bob Keeshan, who also played the title character "Captain Kangaroo", and who based the show on "the warm relationship between grandparents and children". Keeshan had portrayed the original Clarabell the Clown on NBC's The Howdy Doody Show during the network's early years. Captain Kangaroo had a loose structure, built around life in the "Treasure House" where the Captain (the name "kangaroo" came from the big pockets in his coat) would tell stories, meet guests, and indulge in silly stunts with regular characters, both humans and puppets. Keeshan performed as the Captain more than 9,000 times over the nearly 30-year run of the show. The May 17, 1971, episode had two major changes on the show: The Treasure House was renovated and renamed "The Captain's Place" and the Captain replaced his navy blue coat with a red coat. In September 1981, CBS shortened the hour-long show to a half-hour, briefly retitled it Wake Up with the Captain, and moved it to an earlier time slot; it was moved to weekends in September 1982, and returned to an hour-long format. CBS cancelled Captain Kangaroo at the end of 1984. (en)
  • Captain Kangaroo est une émission de télévision américaine pour la jeunesse diffusée quotidiennement du 3 octobre 1955 au 8 décembre 1984 sur le réseau de télévision CBS. Avec presque 30 ans de diffusion continue, elle est à ce jour considérée comme le programme pour enfants ayant la plus longue longévité à la télévision américaine. Le programme, conçu et animé par l'acteur et producteur (en), met en scène le personnage du capitaine Kangaroo et sa maison au trésor. Le capitaine Kangaroo y raconte des histoires, y invite des célébrités et interagit avec un certain nombre de personnages réguliers, humains ou marionnettes. Le programme, diffusé en direct pour la côte Est et le Midwest des États-Unis, était enregistré en kinéscope pour être ensuite rediffusé sur la côte Ouest. (fr)
