Jean Stapleton, Barbara Mandrell, Mike Farrell and Ted Lange help to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Captain Kangaroo in a whimsical special as delightful for adults as for their wee ankle biters. More good news is that Bob Keeshan, 54, who suffered a heart attack some time after filming this show, will be back as the Captain this fall and will also appear as a commentator on a new afternoon feature news program, Up to the Minute.
