From the back cover

FRONT PAGE PEE-WEE. Extra! Extra! Pee-wee's revving up the presses to print the Playhouse's first newspaper! The Playhouse crew start researching their articles with the five W's: who, what, when, where, why and the one H: "how," which is also the secret word! But when Pee-wee puts the paper to bed, and the goes to bed himself, someone changes everyone's columns to lies! Who did it? Pee-wee and his pals want to know! TANGO TIME. Mrs. Rene (Suzanne Kent) is learning how to tango! With a rose in her mouth and Pee-wee's magic footprints on the floor, she dances up a storm until Pee-wee clips her--right out the Playhouse door! Cowboy Curtis (Laurence Fishburne) remembers his first--and last--whirl on rollerskates and Jambi the Genie (John Paragon) helps Pee-wee relive the whole show with a replay that goes by all to "fast" (the secret word)!

5.0 out of 5 stars PeeWee Herman, June 21, 2002

By	Rosemary (Neenah, Wisconsin United States) - See all my reviews

First off, I received the tape immediately. It was BRAND NEW AND SPOTLESS. I thank them for that. It was a very great transaction. The film was so funny that we all near died laughing over it. Tears came from our eyes. Too funny - a night filled with entertainment. I'll definitely buy more tapes from them. Thank you SO much.
