Subject: Tito! Tito! Tito!!!

Written By: Sparki on 02/21/03 at 02:19 a.m.

OK, how weird am I.
I am a Pee-Wee's Playhouse fan, but I didn't watch it when it was originally on because I thought it would be a "baby show," (ha ha ha! My mistake), but then I learned 1/3 of the fan base was over 18, so when Fox Family (now ABC family) showed the repeats, (I was 30 years old at the time, wanna make something of it?) I checked out The Playhouse and found it to be comedy with a very wacky appeal, and PW himself is a brilliant idiot-comic-genius-character on the order of Jim Carrey's Lloyd Christmas (from DUMB AND DUMBER), although, of course, Pee-Wee predates (and surpasses) Lloyd.
Now, here's the WEIRD PART: Brace yourselves, folks!
My very favorite human character besides Pee-Wee himself was -- ready for this? --
 TITO THE LIFEGUARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 No, really. I thought the T-Man was WICKED handsome, with his caramel-colored skin, movie-idol face, and strapping build. He had an appealing personality too. One complaint. HE WAS NOT ON THE SHOW OFTEN ENOUGH!!!!!! (Ricardo The Soccer Player, Tito's replacement, was cute in his way, but next to the T-Man? Come on! Ricardo wasn't fit to rub suntan oil on Tito's "cuerpo" -- that's Spanish for "body," and the T-Man's was DANG FINE!)
Now, am I the ONLY Tito fan around here? Let's hear from some Tito fans. What Tito skits on the Playhouse do you remember?
