Status: Partially Found

Mister Moose's Fun Time was a spin-off series of the Captain Kangaroo reboot of the late 1990s The All New Captain Kangaroo that started aired on Fox Family Channel on August 17, 1998, ^[1]. Of the 60 episodes that aired, only three have been uploaded onto YouTube, one episode, however, was blocked worldwide due to the Big Sister & Little Brother segment included so it was later uploaded on Dailymotion while a re-edited version was made for YouTube, the episode has since been unblocked from YouTube and the re-edited version was removed due to the video being unblocked.

Mister Moose's Fun Time also included segments of other shows, such as Jamie the Mouse, Bob & Scott, Slurps, Big Sister & Little Brother, Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends, The Wiggles, Funnybones, and I.C. Ice & the Icebergs. Mister Moose's Fun Time marked The Wiggles' first American TV appearance, pre-dating the group's television series premiering on Fox Family in May 1999^[2].

Various clips of the Mister Moose segments along with clips of The All New Captain Kangaroo would be seen during montage scenes in the 1999 special, Captain Kangaroo's Birthday Party at Seaworld

As confirmed by the puppeteer who played Mister Moose, Paul Pistore he has confirmed that he does not have any episodes of this series. He has also confirmed that after Disney bought Fox Family turning it to ABC Family and later FreeForm Disney vaulted the MMFT episodes as well as The All New Captain Kangaroo mostly due to the fact the latter show advertised rival theme parks Sea World and Busch Gardens.

The Segments were each from a different country depending on where they came from in this case all 8 segments outside of the Mister Moose scenes made for this show come from Denmark, France, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, Australia and Germany.

-== Trivia from IMDB ==
+==Known Episode List==
-* Mister Moose's Fun Time introduced The Wiggles to the USA. They premiered on the very first showing of MMFT and since they were an independent entity, were able to continue running in syndication after MMFT was canceled along with The All New Captain Kangaroo. When The All New Captain Kangaroo and Mister Moose's Fun Time premiered, it opened in a record breaking 196 syndicated markets. Even though both shows were garnering good ratings, they were moved over to the newly formed Fox Family Channel which was owned by parent companies, Saban Entertainment and Fox. The subsequent failure of The Fox Family Channel and Acquisition by Disney assured that The All New Captain Kangaroo and Mister Moose's Fun Time would never again see the light of day since Disney rival Busch Gardens/Sea World were the primary sponsors and featured in The All New Captain Kangaroo can still be found on Amazon.
