Pee Wee's New Adventures

Posted Jul 27th 2006 7:01PM by TMZ Staff

Paul Ruebens has been riding high since the re-airing of his acclaimed children's show "Pee Wee's Playhouse" on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.

So high, in fact, that in a recent Time magazine interview Ruebens says he is about to make two more Pee Wee movies and the first one going into production early next year!

Ruebens said "In the TV series Pee Wee almost never left the Playhouse. The movie script is just the opposite. This is a road picture, an epic adventure story where all of the characters leave the Playhouse when one of them disappears."

Even though that sounds suspiciously like the first Pee Wee movie "Pee Wee's Big Adventure," we're not going to complain. We're just happy to have the red bow tie back.

16. Reubens Accepts Sex Offender Tag in Plea Agreement
23 March 2004 (WENN)
Actor Paul Reubens has agreed to register as a sex offender for three years as part of a plea bargain to remove charges of child pornography from his record. California judge Carol H Rehm has dismissed the child porn charges against Pee-Wee Herman's alter-ego after the actor confessed to a separate misdemeanor obscenity charge. Under the terms of the plea agreement, Reubens also agreed to pay a $100 fine and to enter a counseling program for a year. The Blow star was arrested early last year following a raid on his home. Investigators claimed they had seized a number of erotic images, including those of minors engaged in sexual conduct in the raid. Reubens has always maintained the pictures are part of his vintage art collection, and not related to anything improper.

19. I don't give a gaggle of goose sh*t what he has done in his past. Pee Wee is AWESOME! I grew up watching his show, and as long as he hasn't PERSONALLY hurt any children, so what? I have two little girls of my own, and while I wouldn't take them over to his house for dinner, or to be baby sat, I don't see any harm in letting them watch Pee Wee's Playhouse. I loved it when I was a kid, and as a 30 year old, I still love it. Come on... Lawrence Fishburne as Cowboy Curtis before his Matrix years? IT RULES!!

21. Pee Wee ROCKS!!!!! I like his artistic talent and don't mind watching his show with my kids. It was kind of weird though, him getting busted for doing what he did in a public forum. While I would def. watch a new movie from him, I would hesitate to let him around children, because one cannot totally be sure that the deviant type behavior he had engaged in will not carry over into other aspects of his life ( ie relationships with others, etc).
