Paul "Pee Wee Herman" Reubens is back on TV in the FX network show Dirt. Plus they're making a new Pee Wee Herman movie.. It's currently in development. http://movies.hsx.com/servlet/SecurityDetail?symbol=PWHER

So who's a Paul Reubens fan other than me?

I vaguely remember having watched Pee Wee Herman as a kid. That was a long time ago, though, so I don't remember much.

I bet he's a kid toucher.


It would explain Pee-Wee's Playhouse. :D

As long as he stays out of movie theatres in Sarasota ... :eek:

This is unexpected. I didn't think that they would ever let him on TV again. After all, they did catch him bustin' nut in a porno theatre.:confused:

That's not all that serious of a crime. Now if they caught him busting nut in an 8 year old he'd be banished to Brunei with Jacko.

*raises hand*

<_<
>_>

Now that's something to look forward to.
Edit: It would be doubley awesome if Tim Burton were to do it again...

If they don't somehow work a joke about Pee Wee's ...um...unfortunate incident in Sarasota into the movie, I will be very disappointed. *nod*

im a pee wee fan.

ive always thought it a shame that his career was wrecked by such an insignificant incident.

By two off-duty cops in a porno theater of all things.

And his career hasn't exactly died since then. On and off. Even remember him hosting that brief experiment known as You Don't Know Jack: The Television Show.

Well, there was the child porn charge later....That sort of put one behind the ear, so to speak.

Case was dismissed though. He wasn't in possession of kiddy porn, just old gay porn. No crime in that.

Pee-wee's latest adventure began in 2001 when Los Angeles police received a complaint from a teenager about Reubens and a friend, the actor Jeffrey Jones. The complaint was dismissed, but not before detectives searched the homes of both men. Jones now stands accused of taking pornographic pictures of a juvenile, a felony. Reubens faces a lesser charge: possession. Both have pleaded not guilty.

According to friends, Reubens's house is a kitsch-crammed Shangri-la, featuring collections of "classic food," E.T. memorabilia, and of course the world's largest Pee-wee reliquary. True to his puckish persona, Reubens also collects vintage erotica, most of it gay. He's especially drawn to the pre-XXX physique magazines that flourished in the post-war decades. Detectives carted off 30,000 items, leaving some 70,000 behind. They spent a year scrutinizing every image in this vast archive, and in the end the district attorney concluded that there was no case.

Dirt is a good show, and he plays an alcoholic, so we can relate. :)

He did make an appearance as The Spleen in Mystery Men.

Although I preferred The Shoveler.

I wonder DCD, what is your news source?

No. The only thing he ever got in trouble for touching was himself.
