Pee Wee Rides Again
« on: June 07, 2006, 12:19:09 PM »
I just read on CNN that Cartoon Network's Adult Swim has signed Paul Reubens to do 45 "original" episodes of Pee Wee's Playhouse.  I'm assuming "original" means "new."  I was never a huge Playhouse fan, although I loved the first movie, and I know there are a lot of fans out there.  I also always felt Reubens sort of got a raw deal, although maybe I didn't follow the story closely enough to know how serious of a crime he committed.  Anyway--I wondered what other people thought of this, particularly people who are fans.

I know they're showing old episodes but I haven't heard anything about new ones.  Not sure how I feel about it either.

he was arrested for public indecency (doing.. stuff.. at an adult movie showing).
His show was already cancelled and he wasn't really going anywhere at the time.

He did show up as the Spleen though.

Anyway, Pee Wee's Playhouse is probably the best kids' show ever.

All I remember is we had a 17 year old druggie French foreign exchange student who always smelled like cig's, alcohol and other smoking items who absolutely loved Pee Wee back when I was 13.

LOVED it.

I thought that was kinda weird.
Delicious! Like a tall cool glass of Nestle' Quik mixed in Orange Juice!

If he loves it so much, why doesn't he marry it?
