I know you are, but what am I? The return of Pee Wee Herman

Danny Elfman's first score. Rarely been as brilliant (though it was derivative). Tim Burton's first movie. Both were launched on quite the ride (often together).

On the other hand ... it wa the end of the Pee Wee train. Next movie sucked. The Orlando Mastabatorium was just the icing on the cake left in the rain.

The TV show came after the movie, which was a pretty big deal for my generation. Saw the movie once as a kid but saw the show every week...

Oh my gosh, I must have watched that movie close to 60 times in my life, most of it when I was a kid. I thought it was the greatest. It's pretty much the reason I was pee-my-pants stoked to go see it at the Cemetery, and even more excited to see much of the remaining cast reunited on stage.

I, too, watched the show every Saturday... loved Phil Hartman... loved it all!!!

Ugh, is it on DVD or Blu-Ray? Must find out.

Oh, and I'm totally jealous that he'll be on stage. I've always wanted to see his stage act.
