Posts: Movies and Television / Pee Wee is making a comeback

http://www.justnews.com/e.../detail.html

"The Pee-wee Herman Show," opening next month in downtown Los Angeles at Club Nokia theater, cost millions to mount. It boasts 11 actors, 20 puppets and marks the show's first production since 1982.

So, why now?

"Well, you know, I really want to make a movie version of 'The Playhouse,' my Saturday morning kid show," Paul Reubens said in an interview earlier this week in which he stayed in his exuberant Pee-wee persona.

"This seemed like a great way to do it: Reintroduce it, get back out there, introduce Pee-wee to the new generation that didn't know about it..."

I freakin loved pee wee when I was a kid. It's funny because watching it now I realize that the show was kinda dirty.



That last quote is priceless.

I seriously loved Peewee! My dad banned it after we watched it together and Peewee stuck a stethoscope up a nurses skirt :(
