Oh no, not Pee-wee. I love Pee-wee. That's really sad.

I didn't know he had cancer

Now that he's gone, maybe people will forget that embarrassing incident that cost him his career, and will only remember his achievements in comedy.

Contrary to popular belief, Pee-Wee's Playhouse wasn't cancelled because of the Sarasota incident. The series ended production about 6 months earlier and was in reruns at the time.

His "Pee-Wee's Playhouse Christmas Special" was weird, but fun.

I mean . . . Annette Funicello AND Grace Jones?

It took me a long time to realize that Elvira, Milton Berle and Phil Hartman had cameos in PWBA.
