Anyone Remember Slim Goodbody?

I was a kid in the 70s, I think he was on Captain Kangaroo? He creeped me out back then, and now his hair creeps me out.

[quote]Slim Goodbody

This character would never, ever fly today because of the insinuation that a "good body" is a "slim" one.

Never heard of or watched the show OP, but just from looking at this guy's pictures, I'm traumatized. Who the hell decided that a children's show character who looks like he's been flayed would be a good idea?

Yes! I saw him on PBS a couple times when I was a young kid in the 80’s and then years later remembered this vague image of a man in a body suit with all his organs visible and it seemed too weird to have been real. I remembered his brillow hair and the only other weirdo human I knew of with that hair was Richard Simmons so for years I thought it must have been RS, except no internet searches ever linked Simmons to the body suit. It was a real mind fuck and I can’t have been the only kid who had that reaction.
