Mr. Green Jeans

Mr. Green Jeans is a character in Joe Rogers' GoAnimate based on the character from the 1955-1984 CBS children's series Captain Kangaroo. His real life counterpart is deceased, as he died way back in 1987. Of course, he is still alive due to GoAnimate logic.

Appearance
Looks a lot like he did in the series, even wears a hat, his treasure house outfit is overalls, and a straw hat, while his captain's place outfit is more cowboy like. He somehow managed to make himself look younger than he did in the final episodes.

Background
Mr. Green Jeans had appeared in Captain Kangaroo from 1955 until its end in 1984. He would often bring many animals in the show, from a lion cub (which bit his finger), a goat, an iguana, and even a penguin! He also was a guitar player as well. After the show ended in 1984. Mr. Green Jeans became a farmer. Also around this time, he became an activist for endangered species, is against poaching, and is for conservation. He currently lives in Go City and is a farmer. He had a fire in his barn, and it's being rebuilt though. Mr. Green Jeans is SICK AND TIRED of being called "Frank Zappa's dad". A rumor spawned by two songs like "Mr. Green Genes" and "Son of Mr. Green Genes" (technically the same tune, but arranged differently and one is instrumental and one isn't). Mr. Green Jeans is not related in ANY WAY to Zappa. Mr. Green Jeans. likes animals but doesn't support PETA due to their hypocrisy.

Trivia

 * Reportedly, real life, he and Bob Keeshan (the Captain) did weird stuff to each other, Joe is grossed out, but is able to separate this from reality.
 * Another Frank Zappa song, Lumpy Gravy may also have an impact on the rumor, Hugh Brannum's nickname was Lumpy. But not as bad as the more obvious ones.
 * Mr. Bainter was a painter in the show for a while played by Hugh Brannum, because of this, Mr. Bainter cannot exist as a seperate individual character, but instead was a role played by Mr. Green Jeans. (Mr. Bainter also seemingly mysteriously vanished by the 80s and due to the lack of enough episodes to even explain this, it is unknown how)
