My little nephew loved Pee Wee. He made sure I had it on every Saturday when I baby sat him. I have children of my own now and bought a couple of VHS for my daughter when she was in Pre-School and she loved it, then my son came along and he is really nuts about Pee Wee, so I went ahead and bought the boxed set. I hope it doesn't wear out soon.

I can understand the appeal of Pee Wee's Playhouse. It is bright, funny and very stimulating for young minds.(I don't exactly know its appeal to the older "kids") I also like the fact that Paul Rubens doesn't underestimate the intelligence of his target audience. He can disscuss complicated subjects like the metamorphosis of a butterfly and to funner topics like preparing ours d'eoursves, parfaits and how to throw a great party for your friends. There are also loads of characters that drop in on a regular basis like Miss Yvonne and Cowboy Curtiss (Laurence Fishburne), the late Phil Hartman, King of Cartoons, Penny Cartoon and Reba the mail lady. And there's even a special where the Del Rubio Tripplets sing "These boots were made for walking." My personal favorite. Certainly this is not all about learning your ABC's and 123's, it's about learning how to have fun and letting your creativity guide you.

I just hope it comes out on DVD soon. So here's the secret word of the day "Fun" You know what to do when you hear the secret word, right??

I think that this series is fantastic. Pee-Wee is so funny. I have all 16 volumes. I got them for Christmas. I have seen all of the episodes. If you have not seen Pee-Wee's Playhouse I strongly recomend watching this series.
