LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - All 45 episodes of the kids-and-critics television hit "Pee-wee's Playhouse," including six "lost" instalments making their home video debut, are headed for DVD this fall.

The shows will be packaged in two box sets, with a separate release for "Pee-wee's Playhouse Christmas Special." A collector's set is due next year, which includes commentary and bonus materials from Paul Reubens, star and creator of the series.

"I am extremely pleased that 'Pee-wee's Playhouse' will be available on DVD," Reubens said, "The digital medium affords the shows a look that was not possible when they were originally broadcast or made available on VHS in the 1980s and '90s."

The show ran in the United States on CBS from 1986 to 1991, the year that Reubens was arrested for indecent exposure at a Florida porn theatre, and picked up 22 Emmys. Electronic rock pioneer Todd Rundgren did the theme song and music for many of the episodes.

Thanks for the info.  I'm gonna start saving my money already.

The theme song was especially annoying. ;D



Howard

Oh man I used to watch that show every weekend!!

Just be sure you are not sitting in front of Pee-Wee when you watch it.

;D

I remember when he made Ice Cream Soup. ;D

Why what will happen?  ??? :D



Howard

I heard that too.  And I'll admit, I've never seen even an episode.   :-[

But..(unfortunatly, LOL!) my kids LOVE "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" (?)..so I'm wondering, from those of you "in the know", would they enjoy the tv series? 

Heck, it's GOTTA be better than some of the, IMO, trash that is on nowadays.   :-\\

Didn't he used to hide secret, sexual messages in the character's dialogue?
