An adult-oriented version of what would eventually become an award-winning children's classic. This version of the show features Pee-wee's playhouse and many of the characters of the later series, but with adult and sexual overtones and jokes including "mirror shoes" and others.

I remember my friend back when I was 7-8 years old recommended this show to me. I liked this show as a kid.

This probably would have been awesome to get completely baked and watch live. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32O2nqL9FvA

I preferred him on the children's series, but this has a few moments, although a completely different tone.

Surprisingly terrible... and this is coming from a man who loved "Pee-wee's Playhouse" when he was a teenager. The whole "manic innocence" vibe that helped make the TV show so priceless is completely missing here... and the live audience laughing makes you feel like you're being bullied into going along with them. How dearly I miss the magic word, the Penny animations, etc.
