    RIP...he was an original and I thought he was great with Johnny Depp in "Blow". So many great comics have passed recently.

    I remember in the tail end of my cable years I tuned into an episode of RAW one night and thought they put dust in my weed.

    He was great in that movie man. I swear he could've had a better career in film as a character actor if he wasn't so identifiable as Peewee.

    Grew up watching his show. His best acting I agree was Blow. Phenomal. I remember his other smaller roles from Cheech and Chong, Batman Returns, and of course his turn as the ever flatulent Spleen in Mystery Men among others.

    RIP

    As a kid I was obsessed with his show on Saturday mornings. As an adult I rewatched some of his stuff and was confused why I loved it so much as a kid.

    Thank you for correcting me, had misremembered then.

    Amazing how much things have changed, this guy fell off earth after that whole tabloid episode. These days that behavior is a prerequisite to run in a Republican primary.

    Actually it did happen, though the charge was reduced and he received probation.

    ===============================================

    "In 2001, Reubens was arrested again and charged with misdemeanor possession of child pornography after police seized images from his computer and photography collection, but the allegation was reduced to an obscenity charge and he was given three years’ probation."

    Inside Pee-wee Herman star Paul Reubens' sinister scandals that threatened to destroy his wholesome on-screen image - from an arrest for public masturbation to involvement in a child PORN probe
    • Paul has passed away at age 70 following a six-year battle with cancer
    • He was arrested for masturbating in a movie theater in 1991, which he denied
    • The actor was also accused of possessing child pornography in 2002

    Yeah, I thought I remembered something about him and child porn too, but wasn't sure unil I checked into it this morning.
