If Sgt. Pepper had been promoted, this would have been an easier list. At the end please tell me your favorite or who you would add that I missed.
10. Captain Jack Sparrow is the only captain on this list wearing eye liner.
9. Captain Underpants: See? Not all captains are pirates or in the military! If you’re not familiar, Captain Underpants is a series of graphic novels, sort of, aimed at the 8-12 year old boys demographic, much like my blog.
8. Captain & Tennille: A cheesy husband/wife musical duo from the 70’s. The Captains “real” name is Daryl Dragon. He and Tennille used to wife swap with Tony Orlando and Dawn.
7. Captain Morgan: Aaaand we’re back to the pirate theme. After this famous Englihman got done plundering Puerto Rico they named a rum after him.
6. Captain America: This virtuous warrior always beats Captain England in a fight.
5. Captain Hook: That hook for a hand had to crimp his style with the ladies, but on the bright side he always had a corkscrew with him.
4. Captain and Coke: If you sneak a flask of rum into the movies in your purse or under your coat, you can buy a large coke at concessions and you’re good to go for the next two hours. It makes any movie funnier.
3. Captain Kangaroo was the main character on a terrible children’s show when I was a kid. Ironically, the show never featured an actual kangaroo, so I’m not sure who he was Captain over.
2. Captain Kirk: He was a bad ass before the phrase bad ass was invented.
1. Cap’n Crunch: I’d never disrespect the inventor of crunchberries by calling him “Captain” instead of Cap’n. Pretty sure he’d shiv me with a sharpened spoon and then use it to eat his breakfast over my cold, dead body. How’s that for a bad ass Captain?
Those are the ten best captains I could think of. Did I miss any of your favorites?
Have a great Tuesday! ~Captain Phil
Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons – watched the re-runs of this kids show with my dad. He watched it when he was a kid!
I’ve never heard of it!
It’s a British show – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqRqBtemHNE&list=PLLC1jtzRtPB230coiHKfE0k2_Gfx4GDlp
I thought it might be.
I was watching it at the same time as your dad Rachael!
LOL
I sometimes find myself singing the intro music!!
Captain Pugwash forever! You might also consider Captain Birdseye for all the fish finger lovers.
Google them
I will!
I’m partial to Captain Underpants. My boys have every book… And we’ve seen the movie, too. 😆
Yes, my boys had all the books too
Captain America! I’m a huge Marvel nerd.
I love all the Marvel movies too. I just saw Deadpool two last night. If you haven’t seen it yet, you should. It’s as good as the first one. And we have Ant-man and the wasp coming up soon!
Saw it Saturday – definitely just as good, if not better. So many references, I need to see it at least twice more to catch them all.
Phil,
Never, ever put a picture of The Captain and Tennille on your blog again.
Okay?
Signed, a loyal fan.
Captain America is my favorite!
I do like Captain Jack Harkness, too.
I’m not really a fan of captain America. He’s almost as boring as the guy with the bow and arrow
Don’t dis Hawkeye!
See? He such a lame superhero I couldn’t remember his name. Shooting arrows isn’t a super power
That’s true….however, he’s still awesome.
Have you seen Hawkeye’s song on Jimmy Fallon?
No, I haven’t. I’ll go look it up now
LOL, just watched it. Very funny!
Every time I hear the real song on the radio, I start singing the Hawkeye version. 🙂
LOL! You have the Hawkeye version memorized?
I wouldn’t say memorized… I just know enough.
PUGWASH!
You did a great job. I can’t think of another except Captain Stoobing from the Love Boat.
Any captain list omitting Captain Caveman is inherently flawed.
I was going to be very disappointed if the legendary Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch and his delicious crunchberries did not make the list at #1. Thank you for your service.
