Description: American comedy children's television series starring Paul Reubens as the childlike Pee-wee Herman that was developed from Reubens's popular stage show and the TV special The Pee-wee Herman Show. After seeing the success of Pee-wee's Big Adventure, the CBS network approached Reubens with an ill-received cartoon series proposal. Pee-Wee's Playhouse was designed as an educational yet entertaining and artistic show for children.
