mr. moose

Mr. Moose was a puppet character on the children's television show Captain Kangaroo. Mr. Moose was created and played by Cosmo Allegretti, who also created and played Bunny Rabbit (puppet), Dancing Bear, and the Captain's painter and handyman Dennis. While the character did engage in serious conversation, Mr. Moose's ultimate goal was always to maneuver Captain Kangaroo into participating in a riddle or knock-knock joke, the punchline of which would inevitably be followed by hundreds of ping pong balls raining harmlessly but annoyingly down on the Captain. This frequent set-up was a major source of hilarity for the pre-kindergarten audience. The viewers knew the ping pong balls were coming, but the Captain would walk right into the trap every time.
