There’s simply no other way to put it: Pee-wee’s Playhouse was a totally bizarre television show, especially when you consider that it was made for Read the full post.

My favorite non-recurring (unfortunately) character: Jimmy Smits as the shirtless Conky repairman. Yowzer!!!!!
My favorite bit of all time was when PeeWee went to the store and he was pulling out his items from the bag. “Milk. Milk. Lemonade. Turn the corner and the fudge is made.” CLASSIC!
I can’t believe Captain CARL didn’t make your list! BOO. Everytime I see Laurence Fishburne I say, “It’s Cowboy Curtis!”
So right about Captain Carl. Why can’t Phil Hartman can’t get some love?
Oh, I remember another one! Cowboy Curtis is talking to PeeWee and he says, “PeeWee, do you know what it means when you have big hands and big feet? No? It means big gloves and big boots!”
In the original stage show, Miss Yvonne announces that she isn’t wearing any underwear after Pee Wee makes an attempt to look up her dress. She was going commando before it was popular, so I’d say she was pretty cool.
Chairry of course. He’s a chair, for God’s sake!!
Surely the King of Cartoons gets extra coolness points for being Blacula.
Captain Carl!
Totally! He was the best, swarthy and sensitive.
Phil Hartman was cool in everything he did. Sad he could not be chosen.
If I had to pick just one it would be Pee-wee. But let me be clear; I love them all. I really wish there was something as cool as Pee-wee on television today. My kids even think its cool.
R.I.P. Captain Carl…..Phil Hartman was great in everything he did!
I loved Miss Yvonne the best but I had to vote for Pee-Wee.
Magic Screen…. that is all.
