Behind you!
When my video store sold its entire VHS collection for a dollar a tape, I bought the PeeWee's Playhouse series. Solid gold, I tell you!

My kids (young adults) watched some of it over Thanksgiving and thought it weirdly hilarious.

Back before his downfall, the one thing I couldn't abide about PeeWee was his refusal to drop character and be Paul Rubens or whatever his name is when he was promoting his stuff on talk shows. Let it go, dude.

Maryn, PeeWee fan

I always liked Paul Reubens, even in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I look forward to another Pee-Wee movie. :)

I dunno, he creeps me out. I saw him on a the Late Show with Connan O'Brian on their Thanksgiving day special...his comedy was just a bit immature, but I guess that was the point.

If ever there was a celebrity arrest that should have been swept under the rug, it was when Paul Rueben had his 'incident'. That really was a sad day for children's television because his show was pure genuis. Lots and lots of fun.

I wish him the best with his comeback.

Kids will love it.

incidentally, he's got to be pushing 50 now right?

I started watching his show when I was three. I thought it was the best thing ever. I would TOTALLY go see his stage show. I wonder how much tickets are...

That article says the dude is 57 o_O
