Now This Is A Classic
1 August 2021
Pee-Wee's Playhouse has to be one of the biggest shows any 80's kid grew up on (and used to annoy their parents and siblings, what, with the rule of the secret word of the day requiring one to scream real loud when one says it). This Christmas Special, shown after season two ended, has Pee-Wee trying to throw a big party in his playhouse. The special basically has the same gags as the show it's based on, and it has some good musical numbers and even guest stars like Whoopi Goldberg, Magic Johnson, and Cher, and musical numbers from Grace Jones, the Del Rubio Triplets, Charo, K. D. lang, and Dinah Shore. And it would not be Pee-Wee's Playhouse if it didn't teach a moral, which this special does. Worth watching for the nostalgia.
